Giants Legend Shows Up Next to Trump at Rally — No Longer a Democratic Voter
But there is a catch. Taylor was featured at a recent Trump rally despite being a convicted sex offender.
The two-time Super Bowl champion’s checkered past includes:
• In 2011, he pleaded guilty to sexual misconduct with a teenaged girl and was sentenced to six years probation.
• He was suspended twice during his NFL career for substance abuse.
• He was arrested multiple times after retiring from football in 1993.
Taylor spoke openly of his struggles with cocaine addiction in his 2004 autobiography “LT: Over the Edge.”
NFL legend Lawrence Taylor arrested – again – in Florida
“He admitted to misdemeanor charges of sexual misconduct and patronizing a prostitute, who was 16-years-old at the time. Taylor said in court that he thought the girl was 19 and legally able to consent. Taylor served six years probation and was required to register as a sex offender.”
