Trump Responds to Charges Against Robert Kraft – By Newser Editors (Newser) / Feb 22 2019
‘Very sad,’ but president notes that his friend has denied the prostitution allegations
(Newser) – President Trump defended friend Robert Kraft on Friday after news broke that the Patriots owner has been charged with soliciting prostitution. The situation is “very sad” and “I was very surprised to see it,” said the president, per the Hill. But Trump also made a point to note that Kraft has denied the allegations and “proclaimed his innocence totally.” The 77-year-old Kraft is a widower, and Kraft’s son has previously said that Trump was “there for him” during “the worst time in my dad’s life”—the death of his wife, Myra, in 2011, reports People. Police say Kraft twice visited a Florida massage parlor for sex, his arrest being just one of many in a large sex-trafficking investigation.
