Elidor Kersaint is being held on $100,000 bond.

It's a website that all men who engage in dirty deeds fear. It's "Don't Date Him Girl.com", and one of their latest postings is of Elidor Kersaint, the man police say knowingly had unprotected sex with a woman and didn't tell her he had HIV.
Miami Beach Police want women who had unprotected sex with Kersaint to come forward. He is HIV positive and accused of knowingly spreading the disease to his sex partners. His mug shot is plastered across the county and on this website that gets half a million hits a day, mostly from women.
Don't Date Him Girl.com (the actual web address is
dontdatehimgirl.com) allows women to post bulletins and warn each other about the "bad guys". If you scroll down on their home page, they have a posting with Kersaint's picture and a link to the
CBS4.COM video story on Kersaint.
Next to his mug shot the posting reads: "Do You Know Him? Police say Elidor Kersaint infected women with HIV!"
"I am utterly disgusted as a woman," said Tasha Cunningham.
Cunningham linked the story to her site after CBS4 first broke the story.
"It's just unbelievable and when I heard about this and what was happening, I was disgusted, that there was a guy out there that no one was saying anything about this guy."
That was until someone did speak up, and police arrested the popular 22-year-old South Beach Club Promoter. A 20-year-old woman reported having unprotected sex with him on two occasions.
Now websites such as the Drudge Report and the Schnitt Show on the radio are getting the word out.
"This guy's behavior has been such a public health issue, said radio show host Todd Schnitt. "Any media outlet, whether it is radio, television, internet, anyway to get the word out to people who might have been exposed to HIV from this man is important."
Police believe there are more women out there who had sex with Kersaint. If you are one of those women or may know someone who had contact with him, you are urged to go to your doctor and contact the Miami Beach Police Department.
