Terry Spencer, The Associated PressFORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. -- Nearly three dozen men and women have filed a federal class-action lawsuit accusing Florida authorities of unlawfully videotaping them as they received legal massages at a parlour where New England Patriots owner Robert Kraft and others allegedly paid for sex.
"It is horrific when you think about the scenario," said Joseph Tacopina, a New York attorney who filed the suit. "It is akin to going to a bathroom. You are in a state of undress and you are being surreptitiously recorded and that recording is now subject to disclosure and being disseminated around the internet. It is an abomination of any form of privacy rights and constitutional rights.
The Jupiter police investigation began in October when the department was tipped off by neighbouring Martin County investigators that Orchids of Asia was connected to a string of massage parlours between Palm Beach and Orlando that might be involved in human sex trafficking, an allegation since dropped in the Orchids of Asia investigation.
Kraft's attorneys and others have argued that installing the cameras violated state law. The law states that audio surveillance can only be used to investigate serious crimes such as murder and kidnapping -- not prostitution -- and that video surveillance would have an even higher threshold. They want the video thrown out.
Unhappy ending
