Edmonton man facing aggravated sexual assault charge; police believe there may be additional complainants

The Edmonton Police Service has charged a 28-year-old male with aggravated sexual assault following encounters that occurred approximately two years ago.

On Tuesday, May 22, 2018, it was reported to police that a 57-year-old male had engaged in consensual sex with Anthony Lee Taylor, 28, on two occasions in late 2016 and had contracted HIV as a result. It was reported that Taylor did not disclose his HIV status to the complainant.

 

Taylor was charged with aggravated sexual assault on Thursday, Nov. 22, 2018.

 

Due to Taylor’s work in the sex trade and high-risk lifestyle, detectives from the Edmonton Police Service’s Sexual Assault Section believe there could be additional complainants who may have engaged in sexual relations with the accused, without being informed by Taylor of his medical history. Taylor is considered to have a high HIV viral load and has not sought treatment in a number of years.

 

      

Anthony Lee Taylor, 28  

 

Taylor is described as a black male, who is also known to present as female. Taylor stands about 5’7”, weighs approximately 125lbs and goes by a number of alias’ including Alex, Nikki, Tatiana and/or Tiana.

 

If you have engaged in sexual activities with this individual, and were unaware of his medical history, it is recommended you visit a medical professional for assessment and contact the Edmonton Police Service at 780-423-4567 at your earliest convenience.
