Former NFLer Lawrence Taylor Paid $300 For Sex With 16-year-old Girl

Former New York Giants Hall of Famer Lawrence Taylor has been arrested on suspicion of rape of a 16-year-old girl.

The 51-year-old, who was supposedly in town on business, was taken into custody by Ramapo, NY police after being accused of a rape that occurred early this morning.

According to authorities, the incident happened at the Holiday Inn in Suffern, NY.

Police said the girl -- identified only by the initials "C.F." was reported as a runaway last March -- was delivered to his hotel room against her will by 36-year-old Rasheed Davis, with whom she has been staying in the Bronx. He kicked and punched her up before driving her to the Holiday Inn and told her she had to have sex with Lawrence in exchange for $300.

After the rape, she sent text messages to her uncle who then went to the New York City Police Department. They contacted Ramapo police who swooped down on Lawrence's hotel room this morning and arrested him. Cops also found a used condom in the room.

Lawrence has been charged with third-degree rape and patronizing a prostitute. (Rasheed was arrested in the case on charges of unlawful imprisonment, assault and endangering the welfare of a child.)

He might want to get Big Ben's lawyer on the line. STAT!

Coincidentally, Lawrence's wife, by the way, will appear tonight on Larry King Live.

Update: More sickening details have emereged.
The victim's sister tells the New York Daily News, Rasheed forced the girl to say she was 19, "She said she had no choice but to go along with it. She doesn't blame Mr. Taylor because he had no idea (she was a minor)" and was threatened to get a "worse beating" if she said any different or didn't have sex with Lawrence. The sister says the meeting was arranged by a music producer who knows Rasheed and Lawrence. According to the sister, "[the music producer] relayed the message that Mr. Taylor was willing to pay $300 for a skinny Spanish girl. Since Rasheed knew my sister, he volunteered her for this. He forced her into becoming a prostitute that night." The sister adds that Rasheed, who served time in prison for murder, pimped her sister out to other men and he took nude photos of her with his cell phone, which he posted to the Internet to entice clients. He charged $80 for professionals and $150 for the in-and-out with the girl, whom he doped with weed and Ecstacy before pimping her out. On Wednesday night, a john saw the girl's photo and contacted him, saying he was willing to pay double to have sex with the girl. That john turned out to be Lawrence.
