Patriot's Kraft Charged with Soliciting Prostitution
By Nate Feldman
Robert Kraft, the owner of the NFL's New England Patriots, is being charged with soliciting prostitutes according to the South Florida police on Friday. According to the police, Kraft visited a massage parlor in Florida where prostitution and human trafficking allegedly took place. They claim to have videos to prove this. Mr. Kraft's spokesperson has denied these allegations.
If these allegations are accurate, this is a remarkable fall from grace for a man whose team just won its sixth super bowl at the beginning of the month, and who has been known for acts of charity. In fact, in December, in the wake of the horrible shooting at a synagogue in Pittsburgh in October where 11 people were gunned down, Kraft attended services while the Patriots had a game in Pittsburgh against the Steelers and showed solidarity with the community there. According to ESPN, he gave tickets to the Steelers-Patriots game to a boy having a Bar Mitzvah.
