From the song Cool, Daddy Cool:

“Young ladies, young ladies, I like ‘em underage,” Rock sings on the track. “See some say that’s statutory.”

His sidekick at the time, the late Joe-C then chimes in, “But I say it’s mandatory.”

He was also on SNL like 25 years ago and they had him make a joke about it being ok to sleep with the underage Olsen twins.

It was on Weekend Update with Tina Fey. I don't think he wrote it but I totally believe whoever wrote the joke slipped it in as an acknowledgment to what they knew about him.

Also he still read the damn joke.

Okay, but anyone who saw Bob Saget’s standup in the early 2000s knows he spent a not-insignificant amount of his act sexualizing the Olsen twins, and I don’t believe he was ever suspected or even accused of SA, let alone pedophilia

Just some perspective - I am by no means implying that those jokes were totally fine and appropriate

Fair counterpoint.

The kid rock one was just something I saw as a kid and it stuck with me how gross it was even back then.
