It's not a good look, especially with the girls/women apparently being held there against their will - even if this isn't a felony, if Kraft is happy to take advantage of sex slaves, that's not a good look at all.

Agree to a point, but really have sex is crime. Oh, wait its paying for it, which many do when they date. Hey, take her out to a movie and some food, have sex, and that is fine. If you ask her for sex, nope that is illegal. I don't get it. And all of this and women are supposed to have the right to choose.

Don't get me wrong the issue here is sexual slavery and that should be prosecuted for those that are guilty. To the old men that went there, well they just paid they weren't part of forcing the sexual prostitution on people. They really need to just legalize prostitution to keep it more clean and let the women be independent contractors and take them away from the pimps. Would it solve everything, no, it wouldn't, but it would help a lot.

I bet if they wanted they could catch way more people in the same type of sting all over the country. The people that nobody know won't be in the headlines though. So if you want a billionaire to be treated the same then you should expect those that aren't "popular" to also be announced in the news.

I think he will try the bill clinton defense. Technically, there was no sex.

A couple of days ago, people were speculating that it was Tiger Woods because he lives in Jupiter and he is a sex addict. I guess it is not.

I heard another name yesterday, another billionaire but it wasn't anyone I've ever heard of.

Kraft wasn't even the oldest guy on the list that was released.

Has Tiger been completely ruled out? I know that a partial list of names is circulating, and he's not shown on the partial list, but it's only a partial list.

Trump owns a golf course in Jupiter and he is friends with Kraft.

This is the list:

(Note that I had referred to it as a partial list because it is only 25 names. It's been said that over 100 people were charged, but I guess this could be the entire list since it's alphabetical and it does go from B to Y. But there certainly isn't a bigger name than Kraft on this list.)

This guy isn't on the list, so it must be a partial list.


"Childs owns J.W. Childs Associates, a private equity firm based in Massachusetts."

Maybe this Childs dude is the bigger name? I hadn't heard of him before today, but he's a big GOP donor.


"He's a prominent donor to several Republican politicians and groups, including former U.S. House Speaker Paul Ryan, Club for Growth and 2012 presidential candidate Mitt Romney.
He donated about $4.3 million to Republican candidates and PACs last cycle, according to a review of federal campaign finance records."
