We may never know.

Yeah that was very surprising to see them reject that deal. You make a great point about the possibility of Taylor paying him. I think the plea rejection there means one of three things:
A) Taylor really didn't do anything, or the defense knows that the state's evidence is crappy and can't get him on anything.
B) Taylor is paying his buddy to back him up (though it would take a TON of money for me to turn down a plea deal that eliminates the chance I'll see jail time).
C) Taylor's buddy is an idiot, and despite the urging of his own attorney to take the deal, he decided that he wasn't going to roll on his boy, even if it was the smart thing to do.

My guess is it's A, but that's just my guess. We shall see.
