New England Patriots owner Robert Kraft, one of the most powerful men in American football, was charged today on two counts of soliciting prostitution in connection to a recent law enforcement bust on massage parlors in Florida that, according to law enforcement, were used for prostitution and human trafficking. The news comes a few weeks after the Patriots won their sixth Super Bowl and days after Kraft appeared at the NBA All-Star game.

In a press conference Friday morning, Jupiter Police chief Daniel Kerr said Kraft was charged with two counts of soliciting prostitution, and that a warrant for his arrest is with the state’s attorney’s office. Kerr said there is video evidence of Kraft involved in sex acts in a massage parlor on two occasions. Twenty-five people total were charged with soliciting prostitution at the Orchids of Asia Spa in Jupiter.

A dude with his money should be able to afford better than a rub and tug.

Exactly. He should be dealing with "escort" services, not massage parlors. What a dumb ass. Have someone else bring the piece to you.

So, its a misdemeanor, but a black eye for the league.

Over/under 6 game suspension? Fine?

It certainly is funny shit.

In Florida, of all places. I’m curious if this was more than, “I was horny and in Florida.” If Kraft was an investor or shadowy means-provider with a heavier knowledge of the setup, he should face justice, not simply ridicule.

It sounds like this ring goes really deep and gets pretty gross. Like really sick. Personally I don't care if two consenting adults exchange money to manipulate each others genitals. Not my cup of tea but i don't care. This sounds like some are not adults and some don't consent freely.

this is definitely in the "wtf?" category ... he pretty much has unlimited wealth which to me means he could pay for more discreet servicing at a location of his choosing if that was what he wanted

this headline made me laugh

How Patriots owner Robert Kraft could get off in prostitution case
The prostitution case against Patriots owner Robert Kraft linked to a Florida sex-trafficking ring could be a long shot for prosecutors — partly because the women he was caught on video with are the 45-year-old spa manager and a 58-year-old licensed masseuse, according to legal experts.

Kraft is charged with two misdemeanor counts of soliciting prostitution after twice visiting Jupiter “rub and tug” massage joint Orchids of Asia Day Spa. Police say the business has ties to an international human-trafficking and prostitution ring, and some of the women at the Asian spa and five other affiliated Florida properties are sex slaves from China.

But it appears Kraft was caught on camera getting services by two women who are not victims of human trafficking — the 45-year-old manager of the spa Lei Wang, and 58-year-old spa employee Shen Mingbi, also believed to be an operator of the business – both licensed masseuses and Florida residents.

Kraft allegedly visited Orchids of Asia first on Jan. 19, a day after police — who had been investigating the joint for at least six months — had set up surveillance cameras inside the business, located 17 miles from the 77-year-old billionaire NFL owner’s Palm Beach apartment.

According to the affidavit, Kraft paid cash at the front desk and then went to another room where he took off his clothes. He was was accompanied by Wang and Mingbi who allegedly massaged him lying face down before turning him over and performing a sex act by hand.
so the answer to the headline's question is "by hand"

The funniest thing about this is the Yelp reviews of the place. There are a few from before this happened that whined the masseuses asked for a big tip. I guess those people didn't understand of what that big tip paid for, lol.

Sounds like they are going for an emergency injunction to stop it. I can't really see why they would release it to the public now, prior to trial. It would seem like that would give the defense all sorts of ammo on prior prejudice of a jury, if it got that far.

Robert Kraft Spa Masseuse Arrested After Video Shows Sexual Encounter
Cops have arrested another woman in the Robert Kraft prostitution case -- a 58-year-old who allegedly performed a sexual act on the Patriots owner with another woman at the Orchids of Asia Day Spa.

Jupiter Police arrested Shen Mingbi -- who cops say was in the massage room with Kraft on January 19, 2019.

According to the police report, Kraft was joined in the massage room by 2 women -- one of whom was Mingbi.

Officials say the encounter was captured on surveillance and shows both Mingbi and Lei Wang using their hands on Kraft's penis.

Officials say Mingbi was also involved in sexual acts with several other men at the spa.

Wang had already been arrested and charged in the case -- but now, officials have busted Mingbi too.

Mingbi has been formally charged with 1 count of deriving support from prostitution and 8 counts of offer to commit prostitution. She's in court right now (Tuesday) to face the charges.

As for Kraft, he's got a hearing on Friday where he'll continue to fight to block officials from releasing the spa video to the media.

Kraft has claimed the release of the video would hamper his ability to get a fair trial because it would taint the jury pool.

so a massage therapist specializing in hand jobs is named Wang ... kizmet
