Lawrence Taylor and the Mounting Evidence; Whose Protecting LT's Blindside?
We know that Lawrence Taylor, through his lawyer Arthur Aidala (a former colleague of mine at the Brooklyn DA’s office) is strongly maintaining his innocence of the recently filed rape charges against him. Aidala has said, in sum, that LT didn’t know the girl and never had sex with her.
On Friday, documents filed in federal court seemed to say differently. In the case against the alleged pimp, Rasheed Davis, prosecutors claim that LT admitted paying $300 for “a meeting” and may have engaged in “sex acts.” The feds allege that Davis, besides engaging in human trafficking, may also deal drugs to his “Johns.”
We, at Sports in the Courtsblog, wonder what, if anything, security cameras in the Holiday Inn will show. Is there video of LT, the girl and Davis entering a room (apart or together)? If there is and if the allegations filed in federal court are true, LT is in major legal jeopardy and he better start looking for a favorable plea bargain now.
