York was sentenced to two days in jail and ordered to pay $1,150 in fines
San Francisco 49ers owner and CEO Jed York was arrested in East Palestine, Ohio, this weekend and pleaded no contest to misdemeanor charges of disorderly conduct and possessing criminal tools, per WKBN. York was sentenced to two days in the Columbiana County Jail with credit for one day served and ordered to pay $1,150 in fines.
Court documents obtained by KRON4 state the disorderly conduct charge was amended from engaging in prostitution.
York was arrested by the local police department, which was assisting the Mahoning Valley Human Trafficking Task Force, at Wheat Hill Mobile Home Community off state Route 170.
York was born and raised in Youngstown, not far from where he was arrested. He became CEO of the 49ers in 2008 while his parents, John and Denise York, assumed roles of co-chairmen. York's grandfather, Edward DeBartolo Sr., bought the franchise in 1977, while York's uncle, Eddie DeBartolo Jr., served as the team's owner from 1977 to 2000.

If he made the hookup on the phone, then yes.
[...possessing criminal tools...]
How does that relate to the prostitution charges? What,...maybe I don’t want to know.
According to Google AI;
The criminal tool involved in the arrest was a cellphone.
If someone hires a hitman on a phone, I’ve never heard of them being charged with criminal tools.
I guess if your being arrested for something it can be an extra charge if they think you used it in the commission of the crime.
Just a guess
If someone gets a DUI can they be charged with criminal tools for having the car?
Norm MacDonald tells the joke about how he finally figured out the slogan “What Happens in Las Vegas stays in Las Vegas”. Went something like:
“So I finally figured it out, you can have sex with a prostitute and she won’t tell your wife.
Not like those gossipy whores back in Ohio.”
an old flame from his high school days?
He probably had a second “burner phone” to transact and conduct his criminal activity picking up trailer trash ho’s.
He should take a lesson from Charlie Sheen:
“I don’t pay them to come over. I pay them to leave.”
If he was cruising Hoe Street looking for hookers .
Vice cops probably saw him trolling for tricks .
Apparently he prefers his hoes to be actual streetwalkers.

The Patriot owner likes massage parlor girls.
Maybe the fact that they do have money makes the common man’s hoe even more appealing . He’s slumming for the thrill ?
“Female?”
Very nice. But you could have legitimized it with those not living in a box needing a bath. You might cover more with that.

There used to be jokes about how many narcs were permanent residents of shopping malls around the US.
What are “criminal tools?”
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Well the charge was amended to engaging in prostitution...but I’m surprised “tools” is plural.
Maybe he had a horrible kink, like something on a bum's shopping cart in an abandoned factory. It is Youngstown.
There should be an arrest video. Some folks try to get them eliminated. Doesn’t work.
Is it more embarrassing to be arrested for soliciting a prostitute? Or to be soliciting a prostitute from East Palestine, Ohio?
