Is a Masturbation Fetish the Key to LT's Defense?
It just may be possible that former Giant great Lawrence Taylor is setting up some type of “fetish defense” to the statutory rape charges against him.
Yesterday, we learned that LT claimed that he never had sex with the girl prostitute but only engaged in masturbation. Today, it has been widely reported that “sources” are saying the girl told a friend that her “meeting” with LT was “easy money” because she “didn’t even have to f__ him.”
Remember, in a statutory rape case all the prosecution has to show is that LT engaged in sexual intercourse with a minor. However, the prosecution must prove that sexual intercourse occurred, not just masturbation or any “fetish-like activity.” This raises the strong possibility that LT may claim that he has some bizarre masturbation fetish involving young women.
While this certainly is an unsavory course of conduct, it is also a complete defense for LT that could save him from jail.
