Feb. 22 (UPI) -- Billionaire New England Patriots owner Robert Kraft is being charged with two counts of soliciting a prostitute in Florida, as part of a larger human trafficking bust, authorities said Friday.
Jupiter, Fla., Police Chief Daniel Kerr said Kraft, 77, is one of the men being charged in the sting.
Kraft is accused of twice soliciting a prostitute on at least two occasions at a massage parlor in Jupiter about a month ago. No specific date was given.
Police said they have body camera and surveillance footage from the investigation.
Martin County Sheriff William Snyder said earlier this week about 100 men were arrested in a major human trafficking bust. At the time, he said one would generate headlines when his name was discovered.
Kraft's Patriots won the Super Bowl earlier this month. He's a regular figure on national football broadcasts, often seen watching his team from the owner's box at the Patriots' Gillette Stadium.
