The 77-year-old faces two counts of soliciting prostitution after he was charged in anti-human trafficking sting last month.
A petition calling for Gillette to remove its name from the New England Patriots’ stadium after Robert Kraft was accused of involvement in a case of human trafficking has reached over 13,000.
The Boston-based shaving giant has lent its name to the Gillette Stadium since the facility opened in 2002, replacing the old Foxboro Stadium. The stadium is owned and operated by Kraft Sports Group, a subsidiary of The Kraft Group, the holding company through which Kraft owns both the Patriots and MLS club New England Revolution.
However, according to campaigners, the positive message sent by the commercial was being undermined by Gillette’s ongoing association with Kraft.
