The prosecutor's office contends that Florida law requires it to provide the video to the public and the media without delay.
Robert Kraft is fighting release of the video. By Cindy Boren Cindy Boren Reporter covering sports, with an emphasis on politics and national stories Email Bio Follow April 17 at 1:30 PM Prosecutors in Florida said Wednesday that they will release police surveillance videos of New England Patriots owner Robert Kraft and 24 other men who are accused of paying for sex at a Florida day spa.
Wang allegedly managed the Orchids of Asia Spa in Jupiter, Fla.; both she and the alleged owner, Hua Zhang, face a number of charges, including maintaining a house of prostitution. They have pleaded not guilty. The news was first reported by the Boston Globe. Kraft, who has pleaded not guilty to two misdemeanor charges of soliciting a prostitute, late last month waived an upcoming hearing and requested a jury trial on the charges, which stem from a sting operation at the massage parlor. Last week, his lawyers argued that release of the video could “destroy” his chances at a fair trial.
Kraft, 77, has denied the allegations and has declined to accept a plea offer made to him and other men charged as part of the sting, in which prosecutors would drop charges if he admitted a trial would find him guilty and completed community service.
