Man raped 4-year-old twins and infected them with gonorrhea - WTSP.com

-

ST PAUL, Minn — They called him “daddy.”

He was in a relationship with their mother – but Arturo Macarro Gutierrez was anything but a loving father.

The 36-year-old was convicted on Tuesday of criminal sexual conduct with his girlfriend’s 4-year-old twin girls.

According to the Pioneer Press, it all began in Oct. 2018, when one of the girls told her grandmother “daddy” hurt her. She was taken to a hospital – and tested positive for gonorrhea.

That was all police needed to know.

ABC6 News reports officers got a search warrant, and a SWAT team stormed the home in St. Paul, Minnesota. They found Gutierrez hiding in the attic.

Then – another STD test. This one was on Gutierrez, and according to ABC6 News, he tested positive for gonorrhea too.

Gutierrez was charged with criminal sexual conduct.

When doctors determined the other girl also had gonorrhea, prosecutors added more charges. The Pioneer Press reports the trial lasted four days. Gutierrez was found guilty on all counts.

“This verdict is attributable to the tremendous courage of the young victims and the willingness of caring adults to believe them,” Ramsey County Attorney John Choi said in a statement.

Gutierrez will be sentenced April 1.

tb in pregnancy :: Article Creator TB Fight Goes To Vulnerable Communities Tuberculosis (TB) is still the most deadly infectious disease in the world, killing over 4 000 people every day, according to the World Health Organisation (WHO). As such, in compliance with the latest WHO Latent TB Infection (LTBI) guidelines, in 2020, the Ministry of Health rolled out short-course rifapentine-based TB Preventive Therapies (TPT) nationally as one way of providing equitable access to TB preventive therapy to all those eligible. Latent TB infection means that not everyone who is infected with TB immediately develops the TB disease. Some people go on to have a dormant form of TB that can be reactivated over time or when the immune system is suppressed. So treating LTBI will prevent the person from getting active TB. However, most people in rural areas are still not aware of how they can access the treatment. To complement government's efforts in respo

toenail bacterial infection :: Article Creator How Do I Get Rid Of Toenail Fungus? Q: It looks like I have fungus beneath my toenail, but how can I be sure? Does toenail fungus go away on its own? Yellowing, brittle and unusual-looking toenails can be a sign that a fungal nail infection, called onychomycosis, has taken root. Experts say these infections don't go away on their own and can easily spread from person to person without treatment. "Fungus tends to be greedy," said Dr. Boni Elewski, chair of the department of dermatology at the University of Alabama at Birmingham. If you pick it up from close contact with someone who is infected or by walking barefoot in a locker room, for instance, it can then crawl under your toenail and spread into the nail itself, she said. Wearing moist, sweaty shoes can encourage the fungus to grow. Toenail fungus affects an estimated one in 10 people worldwide, and becomes more common with age — afflicti
