NEW CITY, N.Y. (AP) - Former football star Lawrence Taylor was sentenced Tuesday to six years on probation for an encounter with an underage prostitute, but the girl told the media afterward that he should have gone to jail. The New York Giants ex-linebacker pleaded guilty in January to sexual misconduct and having sex with an underage prostitute.

The girl, now 17, appeared in court with well-known attorney Gloria Allred and said afterward that Taylor took "something precious" from her and should be behind bars. The girl has been identified in court and by Allred only by her initials, C.F.

The teen denied she is a prostitute and said another man forced her to go to Taylor's hotel room in May 2010. She believes Taylor could tell that she had been beaten.

"I believe Mr. Taylor could see my face and how young I was," she said.

She added, "I did what he told me to do because I was afraid what would happen if I didn't."

And this is disgusting... and for the press to call it anything other than rape is beyond the pale.
