It appears that the laws in the US, in many cases, have little to do with reality, truth or traditional morality.
In today's world, it seems more often than not that the innocent victims are punished and the guilty are rewarded.
Unfortunately, for Taylor the girl was, in fact, a minor and he did have sexual intercourse with her, so by his own admission he was guilty of the crime.
The "She said she was 18" defense did not fly.
As I find prostitution to be abhorrent and degrading to everyone involved, I may not be unbiased in judging Taylor.
