Just when it seemed that the ongoing saga surrounding New England Patriots owner Robert Kraft might be coming to a close, a new development threatens to prolong the case even further.
Judge Leonard Hanser had previously ruled on Monday that surveillance video footage taken from the Orchids of Asia Day Spa would be inadmissible in any court trial, due to the camera recordings violating the freedoms and privacies of spa customers who visited it legally. The ruling was considered to be a pivotal victory for Kraft and the 24 other men being charged, as without the video evidence as proof, the prosecution’s case is believed to be insubstantial and potentially without merit.
