The Bon Jovi camp tried very hard (and succeeded) to pretend this didn't happen and the media didn't really care. Obie's excuse? He didn't know she was 15, she said she was older.
Yep, that happened.

It wasn't during the OWN tour. The girl lived near him and offense occurred in August 1999. He was sentenced in 2001.
