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.

“York’s attorney stated he completed an online course.”

Hmmm…on how to not get caught? Where to buy burner phones for cash? Does “the tickler” provide good protection? Where are the very best trailer parks?

What are “criminal tools?”

If he was soliciting prostitutes, it could be condoms. You would think someone that wealthy would just go to Vegas...

What tool do you think is used in prostitution?

More important question is whether he was buying or selling.

Sure is better in the legal system when you are a criminal with money and influence.

All that money and power still needs to pay a woman to get naked with him.

You’re going about it pitifully the wrong way.

1. garotte
2. machine gun.

Number 1 is VERY personal
Number 2 has far more flare.

As a libertarian-leaning conservative, I think exchanging money for sex should be legal between consenting adults. Of course, they should still go after people for human trafficking.

The “criminal tool” in this case was probably his cell phone.

He was born and lived his entire life near Youngstown, Ohio.

He owns a soccer team in England and Scotland, which he focusses all his attention.

But, he is a soccer fans, so maybe.
