His mother, who did not want to be identified to protect her son, said that the school district was refusing to pay for the healthcare costs now that her son must be tested for all STDs . The single mom told ABC7: 'He's at risk for HIV, Hepatitis C, Herpes, Gonorrhea, Chlamydia.' She added that her son's life could be forever changed by what happened and he could face millions of dollars in medical bills.
