Patriots owner Robert Kraft charged with solicitation of prostitution, according to Florida police

According to reports coming out of South Florida, New England Patriots team owner Robert Kraft has been charged with solicitation of prostitution:

“The charges stem from a months long investigation into a massage parlor,” CBS4’s Jim DeFede reports. “Investigators claim Kraft was a regular visitor to the Orchid Spa and that there is video of Bob Kraft inside the ‘spa.’”

“Kraft is being charged with two counts of solicitation,” ProJo’s Mark Daniels reports. “This also involved human traffickers...Warrants were issued for 173 people.”

The women at the massage parlor “were told they were coming to [the United States] for legit jobs, [but] were in fact held as virtual prisoners/sex workers,” per MSNBC’s Chris Jansing.
