Today's Scumbag
Prosecutors say a New York City police detective accused of forcing a 13-year-old runaway into prostitution has resigned from the force and pleaded guilty to attempted kidnapping.
I assume he wasn't fired because they probably had more control over him or his testimony?
Wayne Taylor initially said he was "100 percent innocent" of keeping the teen as a captive and compelling her to sell herself at parties last winter.
What teenager?
But Queens prosecutors say the 35-year-old officer and 29-year-old accomplice Zelika Brown pleaded guilty to the same charge Thursday. They face 3 1/2-year prison terms.
Oh, that teenager.
Brown also originally contested the charges. Her lawyer challenged statements authorities said she made to them.
Fine. The more you do that the poorer you are when you get out of prison.
Prosecutors say about 20 men paid Taylor and Brown $40 to $80 for sex with the girl.
I hear the price varies in prison, too. Usually it's something between "do it with a smile and you get to keep your face" and "maybe your sphincter will work again before your face heals".
Taylor was an officer for about 14 years.
I doubt he was ever an officer. Just some guy who went through the motions.
