Got this update on my phone. 15? Uh oh LT ESPN News - Hall of Fame LB Lawrence Taylor arrested and charged with raping 15-year-old girl at hotel Thursday
He definitely admitted to smoking crack and sniffing coke during those years, so what was to stop him from doing it before the game and maybe hitting a guy so hard he broke his leg in half....
Hall of Fame linebacker Taylor arrested SUFFERN, N.Y. -- Pro Football Hall of Fame linebacker Lawrence Taylor was arrested early Thursday after being accused of raping a 15-year-old girl at a Montebello, N.Y., hotel, police said. Taylor, who has a history of drug abuse and runs-in with the law, is being charged with third-degree rape, which involves having intercourse with a minor, the Journal News reported on its website. Ramapo police said Taylor has yet to be formally charged. 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. Taylor was inducted into the Hall of Fame in 1999 and competed in ABC's "Dancing With the Stars" last year. He had a highly publicized struggle with drug addiction and has had multiple legal issues in retirement. A quick, fierce and athletic linebacker who redefined his position, Taylor anchored the Giants' defense and led New York to Super Bowls titles in 1987 and 1991. He was selected to the NFL's 75th Anniversary All-Time Team. A 10-time Pro Bowler, he was the NFL Most Valuable Player in 1986 and the NFL Defensive Player of the Year in 1981, 1982 and 1986. He recorded 132.5 sacks, which doesn't included the 9.5 sacks in 1981 when the statistic wasn't official. In 2001, Taylor was convicted of possessing drug paraphernalia in New Jersey. The conviction stemmed from the September 1998 discovery in a hotel room of a butane torch and other materials commonly used to smoke crack. In 1996 and 1997, he was arrested in South Carolina and Florida on drug charges. In those cases, he either admitted his guilt or agreed to enter a pretrial intervention program. In 2000, he drew five years of federal probation for filing false tax returns and for tax evasion. Last November he was charged in Florida with leaving the scene of an accident. http://sports.espn.go.com/new-york/nfl/news/story?id=5167613 As ryan_98 posted.
Rape is already one of the worst crimes, and to rape a child is possibly the sickest. I hope for LT's sake these allegations are not true, but if they are then I hope he will be prosecuted to the full extent of the law.
a 15 year old girl?????? WTF so did he rape the 15 year old or just have sex with her which is considered rape since its a minor wow just when I think this story cant get more ****ed up
In before the "I don't believe this because he is rich and can have sex with any girl he wants" posts.
LT admitted using cocaine during games. Another great Hollywood Henderson on the 70s cowboys was notorious for doing it throughout the game on the sidelines. Yes they would use it to hype themselves up during games just like the rumor of amphetamine usage being rampant in the NFL. Performance enhancement in a way to get that fired up edge on sunday.
If I'm not mistaken he had an "E" special and fessed up there. 15 years of using coke and you wouldn't EVER think of trying to use it during games? C'mon man!

Maybe she looked like she was 18? Nah, seriously though, 15 yr olds were hot when I was 17, but when I went back to my high school to watch a football game this last season, the kids look like they are 10. Whether he raped her or not, thats disgusting.
Its coming out that he probably purchased a prostitute and the pimp provided an underage girl. Regardless how the hell do you not see that this girl might be a tad bit young. http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2010/05/06/prostitution-appears-to-be-at-heart-of-lawrence-taylors-legal-troubles/
