According to a report by WCBSTV.com, Hall of Fame NFL linebacker Lawrence Taylor was arrested early Thursday morning in New York on charges of raping a 16-year-old girl at a hotel.
Taylor, 51, was taken into custody by the Town of Ramapo police after being accused of raping someone in the Holiday Inn Holidome Hotel in Suffern.
Details surrounding the rape have not yet been released other than the location and that it occurred early this morning. Charges against the Hall of Fame linebacker will be filed once police complete their investigation.
Over the past 20 years, LT has been arrested on drug charges and for allegedly leaving the scene of an accident, has been on probation for tax evasion and has now been accused of rape. While it’s important not to draw conclusions from one report, it’s safe to say that Taylor hasn’t made a lot of good decisions in his life.
We’ll have to wait for more details to emerge, but this is certainly troubling news for the man that helped revolutionize the way the game of football is played.
