New England Patriots owner Robert Kraft is a wanted man -- cops say they've issued a warrant for his arrest as part of a recent prostitution, human trafficking sting operation in Jupiter, Florida.
Cops say 77-year-old Kraft will be charged with soliciting another to commit prostitution.
Officials say Kraft is accused of soliciting a prostitute on at least 2 separate occasions roughly "a month ago."
Cops say they have obtained evidence from body cam video and surveillance that has been conducted over the last several months. Officials say Kraft was driven to the spa by a chauffeur.
The average cost per visit for services is $59 or $79 per hour, according to police.
Kraft will be charged with a misdemeanor and will have to appear in court. Multiple law enforcement agencies were involved in the operation -- including Homeland Security, the IRS, the Jupiter P.D., Palm Beach Sheriff’s Office and more.
Officials say the women accused of running the sex trafficking ring operated out of local spas which touted themselves as massage parlors. The investigation took roughly 8 months and officials say they've identified more than 100 men suspected of being "Johns."
Robert Kraft bought the Patriots in January 1994 -- and has led the team to 6 Super Bowl championships and 10 AFC championships.
Story developing ...
I have a theory that when these rich guys get older some of them go a little crazy. It is really hard to believe that he had a need to go to a massage parlor
Another coup for TMZ. This isn’t even on Yahoo, CNN or Fox yet.
Right??!!! That’s what I was thinking. I would expect him to have “people”, who would find “dates” for him, and bring them to him at his hotel or whatever.
He’s a friend of Rush and probably Trumps too.
Haha Kraft had a driver both times he visited and...there is video. This has been 8 months in the making.
Yep, they come here for a fee that they can’t pay. They work off the fee in this manner. Many if not all are illegal.
This news leaves me deflated.
yep, there are very high priced women who willingly provide servcies discreetly and are beautiful. Getting some from a sex slave isn’t good.
It has broken into all stations in boston.
I predict it is all a setup! I predict the Sheriff and/or DA is a Never Trumper!
He just wanted to talk to a woman. /s
This is sad considering his wife dued a few years ago. I would have figured that Brady’s wife could have introduced him to some of her friends.
Or a Steelers fan.
LOL
100% of the reason they’re going after him.
You can bet that there is language in the franchise agreement that will allow the NFL to do just that.
Apparently Florida is 3rd in the counrty at smoking out human trafficking.
LOL, that was the previous owner, Victor Kiam.
Correct. As I observed when Ben Roethlisberger had his misadventures in Georgia, most guys who have Super Bowl rings don’t have any problems in finding women who are willing to go to bed with them.
