If convicted. Do you think things like this should get you kicked out of the Hall of Fame? Pete Rose can't get into baseball's HOF for gambling, this dude raped a girl, a minor(prostitute or not) at that.

He probably had consensual sex with her - but since she's 16 it's 3rd degree rape.
IMO, once you're in the HOF, it should be permanent.
If Pete would have waited a couple more years before getting caught, he would've been elected his first year eligible.

SoCal, Baby!
I have a big problem with this having been characterized as "rape" from the get-go. Using the term to describe what Taylor (allegedly) did cheapens the term - it should be reserved to refer to forceable sexual imposition.
You know, like what Roethlisberger did. (Allegedly.)

More info (per the Ramapo (NY) Town Supervisor/Police Comissioner, Christopher St. Lawrence) in a live news conference - the girl was a runaway from the Bronx - she was 15 when she left home in March 2010 and was reported missing by her uncle - she's now 16.
Some guy named Rasheed Davis transported her to and from the suburban NYC Holiday Inn in Ramapo, probably just before 1 a.m.
The girl had an injury to her face before she came into LT's Holiday Inn room 160. There was a bottle of alcohol but no drugs after the cops searched the room. They entered the room without a warrant (none needed, per the chief of police), at 3:54 a.m.
The girl called her uncle after she was back in NYC. Sounds like she got caught up in prostitution somehow, and after getting knocked around by the pimp and forced to spend some time with LT, decided she'd rather go back to where she was.
Rape 3 (someone over 21 having intercourse with someone under 17) is a class E felony, punishable by up to 4 years in prison.
Per Ramapo Chief of Police Peter Brower, LT is also being charged with 'patronizing a prostitute in the 3rd degree', which he said relates to the buyer being over 21 and the prostitute under 17 (he may nave misspoken there). He added that he thinks that's a class A misdemeanor, punishable by up to 1 year in jail.
Brower - "Ignorance of the person's age is no excuse."
This is the worst $300 LT ever spent. That amount is from the police chief in the press conference.

Per ESPN News - Rasheed Davis, who reportedly drove the girl to the hotel, is 36 years old, and has been arrested on charges of unlawful imprisonment, assault, and endangering the welfare of a child.

These laws can get pretty dicey.
There used to be a bar in the Short North that had underage prostitutes, but they had to keep them in the back away from where they served alcohol.

Unless, to begin with, one would question how a man reaches Taylor's age without being either aware of or concerned with the reality of WHY teenage girls become involved in prostitution. Consistently, they are the product of childhood brutality, rape and incest--nothing very sexy about that.
Then there is this:
"Davis beat her up, drove her to the hotel and told her she had to have sex with Taylor, police said. When she refused, Davis handed her over to Taylor, who sexually assaulted her, they said. Taylor paid her $300, which she gave to Davis, police said. Davis struck the young girl with his fist, kicked her and brought her to the Holiday Inn against her will, NYPD spokesman Paul Browne said."
Contrary to what Hollywood told you, this ain't Richard Gere and Julia Roberts out there, kiddies. Nothing "pretty" about it.
