Rasheed Davis and Lawrence Taylor rape and pedophiles

Gloria Allred is representing Christine (Christina) Fierro, now age 18 in a civil suit against Lawrence Taylor now age 52 for a 2010 rape of Fierro in 2010. Former New York Giants player Lawrence Taylor was slammed today with a federal sex trafficking lawsuit filed by Christina Fierro, who was forced to prostitute herself to Taylor in a New York motel room in 2010. The lawsuit, filed in Manhattan, alleges Taylor "forced himself" on a "slight teenager who was visibly injured, shaken and crying, but expressly told him she did not want to engage in sex and tried to push his enormous body off hers.".  After she was raped she was given $300. Pimp Rasheed Davis, also a former player, forced Fierro into the situation. Rasheed Davis is currently in the New York jail.
Here is what the girl had to say to the New York Post in 2010:

“I told him (Rasheed Davis) I wasn’t going to the hotel, and he said, ‘You’re f- – -ing this up, it’s $300,” the frightened Bronx girl, 16, said Rasheed Davis, 36, screamed at her early Thursday (2010).
“He hit me in the face, so I covered my face,” said Fierro.
“He told me to tell him my name is Carmen and I’m 19 years old,” she said. “He told me repeatedly and I had to repeat it back to him.”
When she arrived at hotel in Suffern, “the lights were off and [Taylor] didn’t see my face was bruised,” the girl recounted. “Lawrence Taylor asked me my age and I told him I was 19.”
She said she feared for her life if she didn’t have sex with Taylor. Taylor is age 51.
“If I didn’t go through with it, [Lawrence Taylor] would’ve called Rasheed Davis and there would have been consequences,” she said. “God knows what would’ve happened if I didn’t go through with it.”
On the drive back to The Bronx, the girl frantically text-messaged her uncle about the alleged assault and prostitution.
After getting the message, her uncle called 911 and cops were waiting at Rasheed Davis’ home to arrest him.

Lawrence Taylor was inducted into the Hall of Fame in 1999 and competed in ABC's "Dancing With the Stars." He had a highly publicized struggle with drug addiction and has had multiple legal run-ins since retiring from football. Based on the rape charges, Nutrisystem ended its endorsement deal with Taylor. In 2001, Taylor was convicted of possessing drug paraphernalia in New Jersey. The conviction stemmed from the September 1998 discovery in a hotel room of a butane torch and other materials commonly used to smoke crack.In 1996 and 1997, Lawrence Taylor was arrested in South Carolina and Florida on drug charges. In those cases, he either admitted his guilt or agreed to enter a pretrial intervention program. In 2000, Lawrence Taylor drew five years of federal probation for filing false tax returns and for tax evasion.

Police said the girl was reported missing by her family in March 2010 and had been staying with a 36-year-old parolee, Rasheed Davis, in the Bronx. The two met a few weeks ago at a Bronx bus stop, New York Police Department spokesman Paul Browne said.
"Rasheed Davis chats her up. She explains she doesn't have a place to stay. Davis provides one," police said. Davis then forced her to perform sexual favors for others, police said.
Early Thursday morning, Davis punched and kicked her, drove her to the hotel against her will and told her she had to have sex with Lawrence Taylor, police said. When she refused, Rasheed Davis handed her over to Lawrence Taylor, who sexually assaulted her. Lawrence Taylor paid her $300, which she gave to Rasheed Davis, her pimp, police said.
At some point, the girl sent text messages to her uncle spelling out what was happening. The uncle then went to the NYPD, Browne said.
Rasheed Davis was arrested on charges of unlawful imprisonment, assault and endangering the welfare of a child. He was sentenced in April 1994 to eight to 25 years in prison for first-degree manslaughter. He was paroled in March 2008.
Lawrence Taylor, 52, was initially criminally charged with statutory rape in the incident, but pleaded guilty in March 2011  to sexual misconduct and patronizing a prostitute. Lawrence Taylor, who now lives in Florida, was sentenced to six years probation.
The pimp, convicted killer Rasheed Davis, in August was sentenced to seven years in prison by a federal judge for the criminal case.

Sex business grows - The New Spain


Spain is finding that allowing huge expansion of the prostitution business brings gangs, corruption and human rights violations.
One year ago, October 2010, Spain opened the world's largest brothel, just a short distance from the French border. Since then, prostitution has grown both inside the brothel, in homes and rooms, and on the streets. The sex trade includes both boys and girls. The prostitutes come from all over the world. Some are forced into prostitution. Children are taken into the brothel. Babies born to prostitutes will probably become part of the brothel. The prostitutes spend their days and nights servicing large numbers of men. In the end, they grow old and have nothing to show for their work, except an education about the sex business. The older or diseased workers will be more likely to find work in smaller clubs, apartments and on the street.

  1. The winners of the sex business are those who own the businesses. The contracts with the workers and the customers hold the businessmen free from liability. Gangs take over or influence other businesses and government. Government officials who want to decrease the sex, disease and crime find themselves helpless. Spain has developed a huge sex business with customers from France, and all over the world - many do not want to give that up.

The full extent of the crimes are unknown.
Here in the Central Valley, we are also seeing an increase in prostitution, especially with the depressed economy. Schools encourage boys and girls to attend college, but many have no such goals. Instead, they opt for money via the sex business. We see it growing in our cities, truck stops and casinos. Our government officials ignore the trend, but as drugs and prostitution grow in the valley, more serious crimes will follow.

SEX CORPORATIONS AND GANGS GROW

BARCELONA - One of Europe's largest brothels has opened in northeastern Spain, employing up to 150 prostitutes, the Spanish press said Friday.


The Paradise brothel opened Thursday night in La Jonquera with 80 rooms and two showrooms, catering for up to 150 prostitutes each paying 70 euros (100 dollars) a day for room and meals.

Owner Jose Moreno (is this the drug guy?) was quoted by the El Pais daily as saying it aimed to draw many clients from just across the French border, each paying an average 60 euros for half an hour with a prostitute.

Moreno has reportedly been charged but not detained for allegedly being part of a gang trafficking men and women from Brazil who were forced into prostitution. The girls are said to perform 2,000 jobs a night. The outside of the building has men posted and the inside has long halls, darkened. (I am guessing there are torture chambers, dungeons and dead bodies in there somewhere.) I assume boys are kept in there also, but no information was found to answer this. Of course, sexual slavery, child abuse and abductions are going to be issues that need to be investigated.

The brothel says it is the biggest in Europe but there are others, in Germany and Scandinavia for example, that claim to have more rooms.
