| Lawrence Taylor Charged with Rape Posted: 06 May 2010 08:55 PM PDT Lawrence Taylor, the New York Giants legend, was charged with raping a 16-year-old girl on Thursday. The 51-year-old Pro Football Hall of Famer reportedly had sex with the girl at a Holiday Inn for $300. According to police, the girl was forced into prostitution by another man, Rasheed Davis, after she ran away from home. Officially, Taylor has been charged with patronizing a prostitute in addition to third-degree rape. He was arrested at the Holiday Inn at 4 a.am in the morning and was later released on $75,000 bail. Davis was arrested and charged with assault, unlawful imprisonment and endangering the welfare of a child. He previously served 14 years in jail for manslaughter. Arthur Aidala, Taylor’s attorney, insists that his client didn’t rape the girl. Said Aidala: “My client did not have sex with anybody. Lawrence Taylor did not rape anybody.” While Taylor was being mobbed by the media, his only response was: “I’m not that important.” The police were alerted to the matter by the girl’s uncle. Around the time of the alleged incident, the girl sent text messages to her uncle. The uncle then called the NYPD. Taylor has had many brushes with the law, however none that were this serious. Over the last decade, he has for the most part kept his name out of the police blotter. Given Lawrence Taylor’s fame, this case is sure to be high profile.
