According to a report from FOX19, former independent wrestling superstar Andre Davis, better known under the name of Andre Heart, was sentenced to 32 years in prison today for having sex with women and not telling them he’s HIV positive.

Davis, 29, was convicted in November of 14 counts of felonious assault for having sex with 12 different women and not telling them about his HIV status.

Davis read a four page hand written statement in court. In it, talked about his addiction to sex.  He claimed that he fell into a deep depression following the revelation of his HIV status, and thus the end of his dream to become a professional wrestler. He told the court he slept with woman after woman, and although he was not honest with them about his HIV status, he claimed he never intended to hurt anyone.

Davis also admitted to the court that he was scared to tell anyone about his HIV status because of “how judgmental and uneducated society is.” He also revealed that prior to sentencing, he thought about taking his own life.
