Some more info: Tyler actually admitted to having sex with a minor in his memoir. “She was 16, she knew how to nasty, and there wasn’t a hair on it,” Tyler wrote. He was 26 at the time. He also wrote, “Her parents fell in love with me, signed a paper over for me to have custody, so I wouldn’t get arrested if I took her out of state. I took her on tour.” It’s likely that Tyler is referring to Julia Holcomb, who sued him in 2022 for sexual assault, sexual battery, and intentional infliction of emotional distress back in the ’70s. She says that Tyler persuaded her mother to sign over guardianship to him. Holcomb also says in court documents that she became pregnant and Tyler made her have an abortion.
Tyler, though not directly named in the suit, denied these claims, said their relationship was consensual, and claimed immunity because he was her legal guardian then, calling for the suit to be dismissed.
