A Miami man who was charged with having unprotected sex with a woman and not disclosing that he was HIV positive has been released from jail.

Elidor Kersaint, then a 22-year-old South Beach club promoter, was arrested in April of 2007.

"He accepted a probation plea with jail time," said his attorney, public defender Rita Marie Gonzalez.

He will do community service during his probation, Gonzalez said.
