http://www.cnn.com/2010/CRIME/05/07/lawrence.taylor.rape.case/index.html
I chose this article because we talked about mirepresentation of age in chapter 9. Lawrence Taylor is an ex-NFL player with a criminal past. It is alleged that he had sex with a minor. This article adds a few details the story:
1.) The girl lied about her age
2.) According to his lawyer, LT didn't have sex with anyone
If it is proven that he did indeed sleep with her, I feel as though he should be punished whether she is legal or not just for being involved with prostituion. As for the statutory rape, I think he should get punished for that too. In this day and age, if you're irresponsible enough to have sex with someone you don't know, you better be prepared deal with the consequences.
