Retired New York Giants legend and Pro Football Hall of Famer, Lawrence Taylor, was arrested this week in Florida, TMZ reports.
Taylor reportedly turned himself in to the Broward County Jail on an outstanding felony warrant.
Lawrence Taylor was arrested again in Florida this week, TMZ Sports has learned … after he was accused yet again of failing to follow conditions imposed on him as a registered sex offender.
Broward County jail officials tell us … Taylor turned himself in on an outstanding felony warrant on Wednesday at around 5 PM — and was thrown behind bars on one charge of failure to report name or residence change.
Taylor remained in jail from roughly 5:00 p.m. EDT on Wednesday until around 3:00 a.m. EDT on Thursday.
“My client, Lawrence Taylor, will be pleading ‘Not Guilty’ to the recent charges,” Taylor’s attorney Mark Eiglarsh said in a statement. “As with the previous incident involving the same allegations, Mr. Taylor did not knowingly commit any criminal offense. This situation is a significant misunderstanding.
“We are confident that, once the prosecutors review the exculpatory evidence demonstrating Mr. Taylor’s innocence, he will once again achieve a favorable outcome.”
Taylor was jailed on a similar charge in December 2021 and later pled no contest to a lesser charge.
