Robert Kraft will not be appearing at the arraignment, despite a court notice issued requiring him to be there in person.

CLOSE SportsPulse: Trysta Krick explains why we should be thanking Robert Kraft following his alleged involvement in the solicitation of prostitution. USA TODAY

Kraft was one of nearly 300 men accused of paying for sexual services at 10 spas across Florida raided Feb. 19. Investigators said women working in those spas were victims of human trafficking being held in sex slavery. "We categorically deny that Mr. Kraft engaged in any illegal activity," a spokesman for Kraft said in a statement. "Because it is a judicial matter, we will not be commenting further."

Florida statutes require a minimum of 10 days in jail for any prositution solicitiation offenses after the first violation. A conviction also carries the possibility of a $5,000 fine, 100 hours of community service and participation in educational programs.

He's getting a massage and making his Special Sauce

Wealthy people are above the law - didn’t you know that?

Different rules😡

Is that white privileged?

so he should be held in contempt, or a warrant issued for his arrest, correct?

Hopefully they aren’t looking for more deflated balls! ;)

He has an appt at an Asian spa

He’s a rich white old man...white privilege

Show up. You are not above the law Kraft

Bench warrent if he does not show up?

We going to waste court time on a man that paid a little extra for a services that a advantage person could afford! This been going on for Centuries! I don’t see any victims! I guess his crime is daring to do so!

Normal

He is rich, and in this country now that makes him very privileged. He's just a common criminal nothing more.

When you have money you can say F the judge.

He’ll get off because he’s rich and hired lawyers he’ll pay at least six figures to sow doubt he paid for a hand job performed by exploited women when in fact he did just that.

It's kind of interesting how the media won't touch sex trafficking going on in South Florida. It's ties to Jeffrey Cohen, whose layer BTW is representing Robert Kraft. The world stops for Karim Hunt but Kraft gets a pass. The media is complicit with the cover up of these crimes.

Hahaha

77 year old man loses wife of 50 years to cancer 6 years ago seeks sex. Ohhh The Humanity!!!

Rules for the rich and rules for the poor. The poor would be in jail and the rich oh well😡🤬

Cause when you’re a dirty old rich man you don’t need to appear!!

That’s what the expensive lawyers are for.

Hahahaha. Billionaires, right.

Money talk$- Bullshit walk$

He brought the justice system and paid for the whoring too.

Pawpaw always said it's cheaper to rent

Two different justice systems. One for the wealthy and one for the rest of us.

Ruch, white, male privilege exists, evidently.

morgfair The convience and benifits of being rich!

Nobody cares

Well, we all know the laws aren’t for the rich and famous. trump and his entire family are proof of that.

morgfair Say what? Will he be held in contempt of court?

The law don’t apply him or his pal Trump

Bobby went Matzoh crazy! lunatic

?warrent

That's what's wrong with our country. Money buys everything

Um I dont think you have to appear 'in person' on a misdemeanor charge. Your lawyer appears and enters a plea.

Busy going to the spa?

Preferential Treatment. Money Talks. Nothing will happen to Kraft. He will not be held accountable.

So how is he allowed to be in contempt of court without consequences?

Why not?

but Hillary can write in her answers....

Thug

Rich white male privilege.

Another rich guy that thinks he is above the law.

Who's surprised by this bit of news?

Pervert

In California, the defendant does not have to be present at arraignment if a misdemeanor. I’m guessing Florida has similar laws.

Privilege

Another example of privileged entitlement....

Although I'm hoping there won't be a next time, it'd be 'fun' to try that and see how it works.

Money is a powerful tool.

Of course not! Rich people never have to do anything the rest of us normal people would have to do!

Good for him

lol silly peasants. the rules dont apply to the wealthy.

FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUK

Just promise him a happy ending...

Like I said earlier, no chance other than circus points would it be necessary for him to appear for a misdemeanor.

Robert Kraft will continue to be investigated?

I thought he was charged with a misdemeanor! Normally, you waive your clients presence at a misdemeanor arraignment.
