While Donald Trump was waggling his finger about human trafficking and the southern border, his pal Robert Kraft, owner of the New England Patriots, allegedly paid for sex on at least two occasions with the product of a widespread human trafficking scheme involving underage Chinese girls.
The charges against Kraft stem from an in-depth human trafficking investigation involving underage girls shipped over to the United States from China with the promise of a job, only to be farmed out to massage parlors to have sex with men for $80-$100. Plus tips, of course.

I think it's important to understand the exact circumstances under which these girls came to this country and why it's so disgusting that Kraft thought it was fine to avail himself of their services. Keep in mind, these are the old white guys screaming about refugees at the southern border while paying surreptitious visits to girls who spoke no English, were clearly not here legally, and were forced to live in subhuman conditions.
"These girls in China were duped into believing they were coming into the United States for a legitimate job, that they came to New York, they found themselves in strip malls along the East coast of Florida, working in massage parlors that were allegedly fronts for prostitution rings," Sanders reports.

(37,748 posts)There were simply too many names peripheral to this, and I think we're gonna see a LOT of men go down for this, left, right, sports, academics, the well-known and the obscure.
And when all is said and done and the smoke clears, they may shed almost as many man-tears as their victims.

(5,914 posts)They can easily afford it, with substantially fewer risks associated. Why patronize a seedy "jack shack" operation?
Unless their involvement goes far beyond patronage, and they are actually backing a human trafficking operation. That is my guess.
