Don't have all the details yet but it doesn't look good.Looks like he visited the Jupiter "massage parlor" a couple times. Only a misdemeanor charge so far.

A PRE-EMPTIVE WARNING
Yes the Pats are rivals, and often hated rivals, and this scenario is a potentially sordid affair for their owner, however, this forum still has rules, and know that everyone will abide by those rules, keep it clean, and show some class if commenting on this news.

Should have just contacted Stormy Daniel like the prez.
Step your game up. -
The title says it all- watch the video on Yahoo and try not to laugh! This will have some definite NFL blow-back!

It is much worse than that given the type of investigation that was taking place. Anything that hurts the Patriots is good news.

I read a teaser on TMZ earlier that said Kraft was not the biggest name arrested in that sting....and I'm freaking dying to know what that means. I'll do a triple back flip if Belichek was there.
I mean....the cops have these guys on camera....in the act! This could be devastating for New England.Puka-head likes this. -

God I’m so happy to see this happen to the NFLs golden owner.
I’m sure someone of such high moral character would never cheat to win championships either.danmarino likes this. -
South Florida will eventually and assuredly take down the Patriots one way, or another!

Kraft will never be talked about the same way again- not with today's media. And if Kraft goes, who knows who follows him out the door.danmarino likes this. -

Is that unfair? Maybe. I don't feel bad because of the crap the Pats have pulled over the years- to me it's pure karma. Once the media sees a story angle that will sell, they're freaking ruthless in the court of public opinion. Do I feel he should be in trouble though? Heck yes I do! Those young girls were someone's daughter that came to America with big hopes and dreams. Places like Asian massage parlors should not exist in America...it's basically slavery. It disgusts me to think that a person with his influence goes to places like that. I don't care if his wife did just die- let him go to Vegas for willing whores if that's what he is into.Last edited: Feb 23, 2019firedan, Fin-O, Hooligan and 1 other person like this. -

Worth a read.
"By Patricia Mazzei
JUPITER, Fla. — Something was amiss at a massage parlor near one of the wealthiest barrier islands in Florida.
First, a health inspector spotted several suitcases. Then she noticed an unusual stash of clothing, food and bedding. A young woman who was supposed to be a massage therapist spoke little English and seemed unusually nervous.
The inspector reported her findings to the police. They would eventually learn that her suspicions were right: The women were not just employees: They were living in the day spa, sleeping on massage tables and cooking meals on hot plates in the back. Some of them had had their passports confiscated.
The inspector’s suspicions prompted a sprawling investigation across four Florida counties and two states — Florida and New York — over nearly eight months, resulting in the disruption of what authorities say was a multimillion-dollar human-trafficking and prostitution operation.
Robert K. Kraft, the billionaire owner of the New England Patriots; John Havens, former president and chief operating officer of Citigroup; and John Childs, founder of the private equity firm J.W. Childs Associates.
Beyond the lurid celebrity connection, however, lies the wretched story of women who the police believe were brought from China under false promises of new lives and legitimate spa jobs. Instead, they found themselves trapped in the austere back rooms of strip-mall brothels — trafficking victims trapped among South Florida’s rich and famous..."danmarino likes this. -
I just wonder how a billionaire even finds this place. He must have had it recommended by someone no way he just wandered in by mistake. He can have a private therapist anytime come to his home. Why on earth go to a strip mall in Jupiter and not some high class place in Palm Beach? Im sure there is more to this story and i bet it wasn't just twice.

Here's the thing. No woman in their right mind enjoys having sex with strangers for money. Sure, they may try to fool people with the "It's just sex and the money is great" routine, but deep down they are miserable. Everyone from the sex slaves making $50 bucks a trick to the high end call girls making $5000 per night hates what they do and would rather be doing something else. Can you imagine being forced to have sex with people you don't want to have sex with?
And Kraft, a billionaire, who has a GF 40 years his junior and most likely others, who are NOT sex slaves and willing to do whatever he wants, knew damn well what these women are going through and he said "**** it. Take my money". He's a POS.
Paying women for sex is barely one step above rape, and in a lot of instances it is exactly like rape, IMO.
