Robert Kraft finally won one his legal battles.
New England Patriots owner Robert Kraft has been embroiled in a very public legal battle after it was revealed back in late February that he was one many men allegedly involved in a prostitution ring at the Orchids Asia Day Spa in Jupiter, Florida. Kraft has since pleaded not guilty to two misdemeanor counts first-degree solicitation.
A huge part this impending court case is alleged surveillance footage that actually shows Kraft engaging in sexual encounters with two masseuses at the spa. Both those masseuses have been arrested and charged in connection with the case. Meanwhile, Kraft and his legal team have been working tirelessly to make sure the tape doesn’t see the light day. Their argument is that the tape would impede Kraft from having a fair trial.
