NFL 2018 Superbowl LIII

Something always felt 'dirty' to me about Kraft.
If this all ends up being true, he should be run out of the NFL too.
Human trafficking is sick and disgusting, as are those who participate and/or contribute to it.

They have him and almost every other patron on video in the middle of each act.

I pray to God that TMZ gets a hold of the video.

He just has to keep claiming this was consensual. Which is a lie, but not illegal. Then he’ll make it go away by promising to pay millions to a sex-trafficking charity in lieu of community service.

This should all recede in four hours, tops.
 
He paid her for the physical contact, and somehow convinced her to have sex with him? Just like keep every other man there? If the prosecutor wants to push this, I doubt it will go away that easily.
An NFL suspension is likely, too. Irsay of the Colts got six games after being caught with drugs.

The sizzle of the headline is to make you think that Kraft had something to do with human trafficking? Please. The guy may have wanted a service call, but do you really think that he's part of a human trafficking scheme? Jeez.

I understand he did not, and the police made it clear that Kraft himself was not directly involved in the human trafficking case they were investigating.
By soliciting prostitutes, an individual is indirectly contributing to the human trafficking problem. Thus, Kraft is a scumbag despite your desire to take some of that sizzle out of the headline.
I'll add, no it would not surprise me at all at this point in my life if someone like Kraft was involved in a human trafficking scheme. Kraft, Rooney, whoever.
None of us here know those guys at all, with the exception of what they let us know.

Right, and none of us has the full story, either, so I'm not jumping to conclusions (reference Jussie FWIW).

I agree that - IF TRUE and dead to rights - this is a real surprise and a very bad look for Kraft. I also agree that someone with Kraft's money could do a little better than this if all he wanted was a service call. Prostitution is legal in Nevada. The notion that Kraft is contributing to human trafficking by frequenting this massage parlor is sort of difficult to square IMO, unless it is proven that he knew that this crap was going on behind the scenes. What makes it stench is that he was getting a happy ending at this place, rather than buying a pizza. I'm sure there are a lot of people on the receiving end of goods/services from people who may not necessarily be in good standing with the law. That's an awful lot of people to indict.
