Just a couple weeks after celebrating another Super Bowl win, life is about to take another downturn for Patriots owner Robert Kraft.
ABC Action News reports that Kraft is on the list of nearly dozens facing human trafficking/prostitution charges as part of a recent sting. The investigation focused on massage parlors. They say there is video evidence. Kraft was in Florida this past week for a fundraiser.
Robert Kraft denies the charges. A statement it out from his organization: “We categorically deny that Mr. Kraft engaged in any illegal activity. Because it is a judicial matter, we will not be commenting further.”

On a personal note, I got to work for the New England Patriots flagship radio station when I lived in Boston. I look forward to hearing Robert Kraft’s side of this, especially if it’s a heartfelt admission he made a mistake. Kraft has donated millions to charitable causes and stepped up to put a murderer behind bars that he considered family. A really disappointing day for those who know the man. –Geno
