Robert Kraft

[BuccaneerBrad]

Looks like the Patriots will be getting a new owner soon.   Robert Kraft was busted in a prostitution sting in Jupiter, FL.   

[Fau Teixeira]

just had a warrant issued for his arrest in south florida. he's being charged with solicitation of prostitution by florida.

the rub here is that it's connected to a wider federal investigation into human trafficking and forced prostitution and these state charges come as a byproduct of related surveillance.

I merged the two threads.

Obviously this is not a good thing.  But it doesn’t rise to the level of reason to force him to sell the team.

Wealthy 77 year old man whose wife died a few years. ago hired a hooker while vacationing in Florida.  Along with about 100 others.

If they can make Donald Sterling sell his team for hate speech related remarks (which are heinous but no crime), then you don't think they'll force Kraft to sell his team?

By the way, Twitter is blowing up about this.   I'm seeing stuff like,

"Miami may have found a way to end New England's dynasty"

"Deflated balls get saggier in prison"

He's not selling the team lol.  Patriot fans will still go to games regardless, in fact no one cares if he was arrested for buying a hooker.  If no one cares, that means they'll still make $$$, so there is not reason for him to sell the team.

[CF DolFan]

LOl ... he won't have to sell his team. In the whole scheme of things no one cares unless he turns out to be part of the human trafficking. The funny thing to me is they are saying he was a regular customer. He has a young blonde girlfriend but I guess he likes a little Asian once in a while. You'd think with his money they would be coming to him.  

[Tenshot13]

^oh, I didn't think about that.  Yeah if it's a human trafficking ring, then he's done.  Not likely though.

[CF DolFan]

Uh Oh .... 560 WQAM is saying other big names are involved. This may get much bigger!!

I think prostitution should be legal between consenting adults, it should be licensed and regulated, much like nevada does it.

Human trafficking, however, is completely different, they should round up everyone involved and toss them in prison. Including the people that paid for sex with what are by all measure slaves. So if Kraft paid to have sex with victims of sex trafficking, then he needs to be in prison for a very long time.

I don't disagree with you. I get the moral issue but I'm not sure why paying for sex is illegal. Lot's of kept women who have to give up sex already. I think if it was regulated that there would be less trafficking and underage girls.

If you give an old man like him a ten year sentence, it's basically a life sentence

I'm going to assume that you've never actually been with a hooker, because there really isn't much of an interview process before you start bumping uglies. How in the world would Kraft ever be able to tell the difference between a normal prostitute and someone who is the victim of human trafficking? He can't! 

Now if the hooker slips him a note that says "my life is in danger from human traffickers, please help!" and he crumples up the note and gives the dog a bone anyway...sure, put him in jail. 

For what it's worth though, if I had Kraft's money, I'd never fuck anyone but a professional escort...and I'd have a standing order in for any fresh Asian talent that might come along.

Why would anyone think he will have to sell the team?   The guy will do ZERO jail time.  If the Dolphins were winning the Super Bowl every year, would any of you want Ross to sell the team because he rented some hoochy for an hour?   To me the bigger story is how could a guy that rich be such a cheap bastard that he goes to a Rub and Tug Parlor instead of some fine azz call girl?

He may be forced to sell by the commish himself

[Phishfan]

1: He isn't selling the team.
2: At this level they are escorts, not hookers
3: Thanks Stroke,  I was going to jump all over the knowledge piece myself
4: I don't care. When I get his age I hope I can afford and still desire some professional loving
