Retired New York Giants linebacker Lawrence Taylor pleaded not guilty to rape charges today in New York through his lawyer.
The Hall of Fame player allegedly paid $300 to a 16-year-old girl.
Taylor is facing the following charges: third-degree rape, patronizing a prostitute, sexual abuse and endangering a child.
When a reporter asked Taylor if he was guilty, Taylor replied: "Grow up."
Remarking on the media presence at his arraignment, Taylor said: "It must be a slow news day."
Defense attorney Arthur Aidala said Taylor would challenge the girl’s identification of him. Aidala also said the defense would look into whether all statements made in the case were voluntary.
“A plea bargain is possible at any time in any case,” said Taylor's lawyer, Arthur Aidala. "But in this case, “There is no plea bargain. There is no offer. Mr. Taylor is very much looking forward to going forward, putting this behind him, and going on to live his life."
Taylor's wife attended the court proceeding for the three-time NFL Defensive Player of the Year.

Great information................
Sterling sliver jewelry, particularly bracelets, is a staple of fashionable women everywhere. This type of pandora beads is durable yet so beautiful. The versatility is outstanding; it goes with every outfit whether with jeans or with a designer gown. For instance, movie star Sandra Bullock wore a silver cuff bracelet to the 2009 MTV Movie Awards in May 2009. A silver cuff bracelet makes an audacious statement, yet it is lightweight and is flexible so that it can fit a variety of wrist sizes. Another popular type of bracelets is the silver charm bracelet. There are many shapes and designs for the charms that are attached to the bracelet.
