A paedophile has been sentenced to life in prison for sexually assaulting a 14-year-old girl and a 23-month-old toddler and infecting them with HIV, Chlamydia and Herpes.

David Wilson, a registered sex offender from Houston, Texas, was found guilty of super aggravated sexual assault.

The 34-year-old claimed he is in love with the 14-year-old girl, who he met through a family member.

In a court affidavit, the teenage girl said she and Wilson "would park on a cul-de-sac near her school and have sex in his car. The last time, they had unprotected sex."

As a result of their relationship, the girl tested HIV positive and said she was pregnant with his baby.

Click2Houston reported that Wilson told the court: "I have never denied about us having a relationship.

"I am not sorry we were together, no, I am sorry the HIV came into the situation."

The prosecutors stated the 23-month-old victim was living with Wilson at the time.

Charging documents stated family members took the toddler to a hospital where doctors found a growth on her genitals. The test results came back positive for HIV, Chlamydia and Herpes.

A doctor told the Houston court that the toddler "had to have been sexually assaulted as evidenced by the presence of three sexually transmitted diseases".

Police tested all four people living with the toddler for STDs but only Wilson came back positive.

Reconstructive surgery was performed on the toddler at Memorial Hermann Hospital due to damage from infection.

It took the jury approximately an hour to find Wilson guilty.
