What happened to hookergate with Kraft?

Zeke was exonerated. It did.

except with the NFL. Supposedly bringing the NFL image into dis repute is a bad thing. But some owners clearly can get away with more than others as regards the NFL.

It's true that a boatload of money can help someone get out of a legal problem, and it may well be that the DA's office decided it wasn't worth the time, expense and manpower to prosecute what was a victimless crime against a wealthy man with high priced attorneys. But I don't think the NFL would have handled it the same if there was a woman accusing Kraft of violence. I think that's too hot button an issue for the NFL to just ignore, even with an owner.

victimless?

victimless?

Possibly. That depends on whether the career for the girls was their choice. I don't think we know.

Of course. And the ones who buck the NFL(Jerry Jones, Al Davis) get popped. That's the way it is in all facets of life.

You really think the majority of those working at those places would CHOOSE that if they had any other real choice?

That wasn't the question. Most people wouldn't be working at their jobs. Not wanting to work at what you're working at does not necessarily mean you are being forced.

IIRC, he was in the parlor, but he hadn't gotten to the point where they were pleasuring him. So, no body cam of his indiscretion means no charges.

But bad publicity for the NFL should lead to disciplinary actions, IMO.

victimless?

Yes, victimless. Kraft wasn't charged with or even accused of victimizing anyone. The girls were in the business of providing services. Kraft didn't force himself on them.

Anybody know the address to this massage parlor. I’m going to do my own investigation.

money, money, money, MONEY!

Kraft is creepy. But he didn't do anything illegal.

This thread is hilarious.

Kraft's money and attorneys is what happened.

FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. -- A video recording of New England Patriots owner Robert Kraft and other men allegedly engaging in massage parlor sex will be returned to prosecutors for destruction, a Florida judge ruled Friday, ending a two-year saga that tarnished the reputation of one of football's most successful luminaries.

Palm Beach County Judge Leonard Hanser agreed with prosecutors and Kraft's attorneys that the recording given to him before he ruled it inadmissible at trial was not part of the permanent court file and will be returned for destruction.
