Looks like there's an underage/pedo angle too.

Federal prosecutors broke law in Jeffrey Epstein case, judge rules
BY JULIE K. BROWN
FEBRUARY 21, 2019 02:51 PM
Palm Beach multimillionaire Jeffrey Epstein is a free man, despite sexually abusing dozens of underage girls according to police and prosecutors. His victims have never had a voice, until now.
By
Federal prosecutors, under former Miami U.S. Attorney Alex Acosta, broke the law when they concealed a plea agreement from more than 30 underage victims who had been sexually abused by wealthy New York hedge fund manager Jeffrey Epstein, a federal judge ruled Thursday.
While the decision marks a victory for crime victims, the federal judge, Kenneth A. Marra, stopped short of overturning Epstein’s plea deal, or issuing an order resolving the case. He instead gave federal prosecutors 15 days to confer with Epstein’s victims and their attorneys to come up with a settlement. The victims did not seek money or damages as part of the suit.
“As a legal matter, the non-prosecution agreement entered into by the U.S. Attorney’s Office in the Southern District of Florida does not bind other U.S. Attorneys in other districts. They are free, if they conclude it is appropriate to do so, to bring criminal actions against Mr. Epstein and his co-conspirators,’’ said lawyer David Boies, representing two of Epstein’s victims who claim they were trafficked by Epstein in New York and other areas of the country.
Earlier this month, the Department of Justice announced it was opening a probe of the case in response to calls from three dozen members of Congress. Nebraska Sen. Ben Sasse, the Republican chairman of the Senate Judiciary Oversight Subcommittee, on Thursday asked the DOJ to re-open Epstein’s plea deal.

Arrests have been made of the those accused of running the spas and those accused of exchanging money for sexual favors. Dougherty said aspects of the case are eye-opening.“I never in a million years imagined it would be this much money involved,” he said.
He noted about $3 million in asset forfeitures through bank accounts.
“These people are reporting no income or very little income,” Dougherty said.
Federal agencies, he said, are working to “follow this pyramid, this organization to try and connect them and move to the top.” “We can show an organization here with definitely five spas in this area that’s run by one person with another assistant,” he said. He said federal officials are tracking the electronic trail of cash.

Snyder rejected that: "We were able to determine with certainty that 9 out of 10 men who went into the parlors where we did the search warrants were there for sex," he said.
"Any idea that there are hundreds of men out there who went to these spas and had legitimate massages is a mischaracterization of the truth," Snyder said.
Forget Disney World ... Robert Kraft's alleged sex spa is now the HOTTEST tourist attraction in Florida -- 'cause people are lining up to see the place!!
Oh, and some didn't even bring clothes.
Orchids of Asia Day Spa in Jupiter, Florida was named by police Friday as the place where the Patriots owner allegedly paid for sex acts on at least 2 separate occasions.
Now ... the closed-down building has transformed into a must-see spot for tourists -- with people parking out front to catch just a small glimpse of the place!!
There was a Giants fan ... TV camera crews ... a sweet old couple ... and some dude who decided to show up naked!!!
Officials say Kraft was driven to the spa by a chauffeur at least twice in the last month or so ... and say they have video of the Pats owner "that shows the act that took place" with him inside of the spa.
Cops say the average cost for services at the spa was $59 for half an hour or $79 for an hour.
The Pats owner is facing 2 counts of soliciting another to commit prostitution, Jupiter Police Chief Daniel Kerr announced.
Remember Mitt Romney's company, Bain? Robert Kraft, Jeffrey Epstein billionaire buddy Mort Zuckerman (owns Daily News, US News and World Report), and El Salvadoran drug lords were the only early investors in that company.
There are major drug and human trafficking aspects to these guys, and probably to these arrests today. Obviously you can see the human trafficking aspect in the massage shop arrests.
Jeffrey Epstein's Virgin Islands private Island, and his close friendship with the former president of Colombia, and his close friendship with Bill (Mena Arkansas) Clinton suggests that Epstein's Little Saint James Island was used not just for child rape, but also for drug trafficking and money laundering.
And Jeffrey Epstein also owned a huge private ranch in New Mexico, complete with a private airport. New Mexico is on the Mexico border, so Epstein was probably flying drugs and girls across the border to his ranch with Mossad/CIA support.
Also, Robert Kraft's NFL franchise is a cash based business. Drug lords need cash-based businesses to launder their drug money. That's why Pablo Escobar bought a pro soccer team.
And the Miami Heat are owned by an Israeli mafia big shot who also owns Caribbean Cruiselines. Those cruise ships are perfect for transporting large amounts of drugs into the US, and the Miami Heat can easily be used to launder tens of billions in drug money.
And guess who owns the Boston Celtics? Executives of Bain. It's all one network, guys.

"The idea for Bain & Company was conceived by co-founder William Worthington Bain Jr. during his time at the Boston Consulting Group (BCG)."
"in 1976, the lives of Mitt Romney and Benjamin Netanyahu intersected, briefly but indelibly, in the 16th-floor offices of the Boston Consulting Group, where both had been recruited as corporate advisers. At the most formative time of their careers, they sized each other up during the firm’s weekly brainstorming sessions, absorbing the same profoundly analytical view of the world.
That shared experience decades ago led to a warm friendship, little known to outsiders, that is now rich with political intrigue. Mr. Netanyahu, the prime minister of Israel, is making the case for military action against Iran as Mr. Romney, the likely Republican presidential nominee, is attacking the Obama administration for not supporting Mr. Netanyahu more robustly."
Cop a plea time wrote:
The first charge is a second-degree misdemeanor, punishable by 60 days in jail. The second charge is a first-degree misdemeanor, punishable by up to a year in jail.
Florida statutes require a minimum of 10 days in jail for any 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.
An investigation into the spa, which opened in 2012, began in October.
Surveillance revealed a steady stream of male clients at the nondescript business in a Jupiter strip center between 9 a.m. and 11:30 p.m. They would stay for 30 minutes to an hour, arrest records show.
According to this article, he is unlikely to spend time in jail:

I doubt there are actually any bigger names than Kraft in this case.
Just because one sports guy says there are don't mean a damned thing
the sports guy said "according to a source" which could be from anywhere. He's very well connected and within law enforcement as well. Why wouldn't there be bigger names? Simply because you post a "pull it out of my rear" doubt?
Assuming Kraft is worth $6 billion, and assuming he did the half-hour $59 rate, I calculate that he has about 100 million visits left before he runs out of cash.

The cops planted cameras have it on video that Kraft paid and engaged in a sexual act with a victim of sexual trafficking. They have hard evidence and want him and his attorneys to fully cooperate to nail the people running this ring and get it and his name out of the news cycle ASAP. That's why it's being played this way. Then, when charges are dropped for cooperating with investigators, the video will somehow find its way to TMZ and we'll all be in for another round of being grossed out.
Kraft was just a customer, I doubt he knows who owns the place or where the girls came from. When someone famous is busted for solicitation it always becomes public information. As for the charges he is unlikely to receive anything more than probation.
High rollers never spend money at a place of business unless they know who are the owners. A billionaire such as Bob Kraft is a high roller.

High rollers don't visit strip mall message parlors. If he buys a Big Mac does he know who the franchisee is? He was nothing more than a customer.
