I recall Kraft saying Trump called him a lot after his wife died, and that's why he supports him. I wonder if Trump gave him the number for this sex shop? To cheer him up? Or some other crazy shit.

It's amazing how everyone associated with Trump winds up arrested or in jail.

Misdemeanor is no jail. It's mainly embarrassing for him if he gives a shit.

He will get fined by the NFL as well. They have personal conduct policy. Jim Ersay was fined for a DUI.

Man, the NFL is probably tired of these scandals PR wise.

Part of fighting sex trafficking would be to decriminalize sex work, obviously that wouldn't be the end of sex trafficking and specifically wouldn't mean the end of foreign trafficking like this buuut... it wouldn't hurt.

Also, people need to be more aware of the human trafficking involved in Asian restaurants.

I dunno, I wouldn't be in a fucking parlor if i'm worth billions but idk how he was supposed to know their status. I doubt there is much conversation involved in this.

Jesus that's some horrid conditions for those women. Off season news is wild.
Basically a sex slave shop pushing men in through by the thousands. Gross.

This is fucked up

Theres a 0% chance he'll go to jail for this but Goodell is going to bring the hammer down especially because its Kraft and the Patriots. Owners are subject to the the personal conduct policy. I'd guess at least half the season if the other owners just don't force him out entirely.

Man, massage parlors like this are popping up everywhere. Don't go to these places, people. I'm not against sex work, but I feel like the majority of the women in these places are working against their will. Ugh.

So this is a misdemeanor, meaning the police don't believe he had any knowledge of sex traffic going on?

User Banned (1 month): Excusing sex trafficking
For a mostly victimless crime (excluding known trafficking issues) this is annoying to see

I would think a guy like this could get an independent professional rather than go to a shady massage parlour...

Patriots already have a record of bad behavior with Roger Goodell.

They're gonna get max penalty, whatever it is, so far as the NFL is concerned.

Fuck. It's sad to see human trafficking is still a problem in America, tho I've known its been bad for sometime now.

No need to feel. It is mostly the case with these places.

So if he had no acknowledgment of the girls being forced into this, is he still a creep? I'm trying to wrap my mind around how I should feel.

Anyone with half a brain knows what is going on at most/all "massage parlors", and how the girls got there, they just don't really care. I doubt he participated in trafficking any women, but I doubt he was ignorant of their situation either. This one in particular sounds like it was a straight up brothel with awful conditions.
