Ex-NFL Star Lawrence Taylor Arrested in NY
Police in NY suburb say former NFL star Lawrence Taylor arrested in connection with rape
The Associated Press
SUFFERN, N.Y. May 6, 2010 (AP)
Football Hall of Famer Lawrence Taylor was arrested Thursday in connection with a reported rape in the New York City suburbs, police said. Ramapo Detective Lt. Brad Weidel said the former New York Giants linebacker had not been formally charged, but that police were investigating a reported rape that occurred earlier Thursday at a hotel in Montebello. Police said they would hold a news conference Thursday afternoon. They did not immediately respond to questions about the circumstances of the arrest and whether Taylor, 51, had a lawyer.

These things are always "interesting". It seems some of the times, someone is trying to extort money by making a certain claim.

Sorry, but the best linebacker to ever play the game is innocent until proven guilty in my book. Just sayin’.

Dumb pimp gave him a 16 year old.

When I heard the press conference it sounded better for LT than before...she was allegedly beaten up too, but before she was with him.

Officials kind of emphasized LT was cooperative and that no drugs were found.

Poor Lawrence is just a dummy; seems alot of folks never learn.

Just basing it on interviews and stuff.... He seems like a nice guy.. I was really rooting for him to succeed... :(

Using a hooker is a moral call.. I don't have a problem with it..

Having sex with a minor (3rd degree rape) is another issue.. If he didn't know - it's questionable weather he's at 100% at fault.. I don't know all the details...
And if he knew even the slightest - he should be held accountable...

It's still a horrible thing any way you look at it now.. :(

For LT's sake I hope they can.

Ignorance is not a legal excuse regarding statutory rape.

The plot thickens....

Lawrence Taylor rape case: Ex-con told Bronx teen runaway to lie to LT about her age: complaint
The ex-con accused of setting up former Giants great Lawrence Taylor up with a 16-year-old sex partner told the teenager to lie about her age, a criminal complaint revealed Friday. Rasheed Davis, who faces sex trafficking charges when he is arraigned later today in Manhattan federal court, told the girl to tell "client No. 1 that she was 19-years-old," the document states.

Getting closer to the Danny Almonte defense. You may remember him:

Danny Almonte Rojas (born April 7, 1987 in Moca, Dominican Republic) is a former Little League baseball pitcher, the subject of considerable media attention in 2001. Considered a phenomenon as he led his Bronx team to a third-place finish in the 2001 Little League World Series, Almonte was revealed to have actually been two years too old to play Little League baseball.
