What do Big Ben and Lawrence Taylor have in common?

Disturbing story all around. A couple of random thoughts:

I wonder if craigslist was involved.

With LT's previous criminal history, would a conviction be viewed as a 3rd strike scenario.

Strange - alot of people said Ben should get a room and hire escorts. Sounds like LT tried to do that, but geez.

I would not be surprised if it gets plead down to a misdemeanor, IF, LT can show reasonable belief she was older.

The running away aspect has to scare every parent of a teenage girl. They are emotional wrecks.

The guy punching her in the face and forcing her will certainly go away for a LOOOONNNG time.

Look if he's guilty throw the book and lock him up.All I am saying is if this story is true ...it strikes me as odd that the girl only gets in touch with the uncle ..till after having sex with LT....on the way home,not in any of the weeks before ,not after getting beaten by her "Pimp",and if you were a girls pimp and had to force her to do this (crap)....would you let her have a cell phone?

Those are interesting points, I am just not sure what you are implying? That it was a setup? That nothing happened and they(the girl and guy) are trying to extort LT? What is the alternative that you might see to answer your questions.

Girls need to realize you reap what you sow.

Umm....

LT is one of those athletes whose life seems like a train wreck waiting to happen. He lives with a wrecklessness similar to Mike Tyson and John Daly. Frankly, I'm surprised that he made it to 50.

Which brings me to my next point... don't smoke crack.

Ehrrr.......that's not my pipe under the seat.
AND Joey T is ashamed to have his leg broken by a child molester.....

I AM not defending him....lets make this clear please.All I'm saying is this sounds a bit strange to me,remember the Dukes LX team .The story as is just doesn't sit right with me.Look at it like you didn't know who he was.

I admit I have thought the same thing.

Apologize. Yours had more info. But I'm assuming your backing LT which I guess I am sorta also. Not sure what the hooker laws are up there in the town where it occured or NY in general.

Whats funnier is if it happened here in VA, the pimp would get punished worse for pimping out a juvenile, the juvenile might catch a charge of prostitution, and LT might catch a charge of contributing to a delinquency of a minor. Any adult having sex with a minor (someone under 18) 15-17 is simply contributing which is a misdemeanor unless she says he forced himself on her.

Also I'm betting she would not have said a thing to her family had it been an average joe. Because it was LT and perhaps he was stupid enough to mention it or she recognized him is why I'm betting she contacted her family. Basically trying to brag about it. "Hey Unc, guess who I just shagged? LT."
