The article continues stating that in recent days about 200 arrest warrants have been issued, with more expected.
According to CBS Miami Kraft’s name was on a list of 25 names who will face charges, “in connection to,” human trafficking and spa sex acts.
CNN reports that Jupiter Police’s spokeswoman Kristin Rightler said “charges have been filled,” but Kraft has not been arrested.
CNN goes on to say that a representative for the Patriots has denied all the charges, “We categorically deny that Mr. Kraft engaged in any illegal activity. Because it is a judicial matter, we will not be commenting further.”
