Umm I said it was illegal... I’m more curious if he had an itch to

scratch why not just jump on your jet to Vegas where it isn’t illegal.

 

It's illegal in Vegas by local law but there are other places in Nevada where it's perfectly legal.  

 

He could also go to another country too where it's legal.  

 

And he's also got the "sugar baby" option too.  Given the apparently open relationship he has with his GF, I doubt she would mind.  

 

There are certainly smarter ways he could have gone about this.

What really bothers me is that fact he feels he did nothing wrong

Umm being caught with a ton of drugs in your car and being well a * to the cops is very much different than an old man trying get himself a little something something.. lol.  Be honest Itsey had a problem and if I remember right he dealt with it, this is simply a case of a man wanting some.. neither bother me that much.

Itsay was suspended? 

Sounds like it's much worse than that.  From what I've seen, it looks like he was part of a human trafficking ring and he solicited someone to commit prostitution.  This isn't just an old guy trying to have some fun.

This is sad situation for all involved.  I will be interested to see if Kraft knew that there was human trafficking going on at this venue.   Also, will be interested to see how all of this pans out as it is only a day or so old and "facts" and denials can change as time goes on and we get a better picture of what happened.

I read the article, if I am reading it right. (I am super sick so I may not be lol) it sounds he just solicited a woman for sex and isn’t one of the ring leaders of the trafficking ring.

He might just be trying to maintain his innocence.  

 

Regardless if he was just trying to pay what he believed was a willing adult woman for sex I don't personally think it's a huge deal.  On a religious/moral level I find it immoral but it's not the kind of act that I want to see my tax dollars being spent for the cops to track down, have these people put on trial, and see some imprisoned for it.  

 

Obviously if he was involved in human trafficking then things are much much deeper and he deserves prison.

Interesting, supposedly caught on surveillance video...

 

Part of a large International trafficking ring too...

Too early to say for now since the story is developing, but this has the potential to be REALLY bad

 

Agreed we don't know much yet.  This could be a simple case of him just trying to get some sex for money from an adult woman which while illegal isn't super huge.  

 

Or it could be him being involved in human trafficking or underaged prostitution which would be massive and would likely not only involve prison but also involve a forced sale of the Patriots.

Irsay had a problem, a very bad problem.  That he seemed help for and I think he has been sober ever since?  I personally never bashed the man for it, we all have our demons. (That’s not to say I liked him I always found him annoying but that’s me.)

 

as for this this I really don’t care.  Prostitution been around forever and the fact we still have it illegal just allows the wrong people profit off of it. 

The operative word here is illegal.

 

Whether you think it should or should not be, does not come into play.

No, he would just hand over the Patriots to his son Jonathan Kraft and “retire”.

If I read it right Grams a minor crime and with his money a little slap on the wrist.. ASSUMING he was just soliciting a prostitute.

Maybe, maybe not.  If and this is a HUGE IF, he's busted with UNDERAGE girls and human trafficking, no way in heck the league lets him do that. the other owners can force the sale of the Patriots and will if that is the case.

Not in the eyes of many 

Really?  Then I feel sad for them! If you can’t see a BIG difference between buying and selling people make a profit (that was sex traffickers do) and someone just wanting some physical attention and paying for it..

Yeah, there is a difference apparently kids must be involved and there is a difference between liking kids to really liking kids.

And likely very little punishment from the league.  

 

While this gives Colts fans something to crow about for a bit, but if that's really all it was, what Irsay did IMO is worse.  Soliciting an adult willing prostitute doesn't hurt anybody or create the potential for harm.  Irsay driving around loaded up on pain meds could have gotten someone killed.

he probably didn't know he was going to be.  And they could have suspended his passport as part of the indictment.

Agreed.. but again Irsay had a problem and the incident help him see it and fix it.. so I’m not going condemn the man for making a mistake or a lapse in judgement.

Kevin L. Orpurt drove through terre haute on pain med and nothing happen to him. Heck he ran over the mayor Harley Davidson  when he found out he was having affairs with his wife

Those nations are not going to let you just stay there just cause you are on the run from the law in the US.  

 

You have to have a prior citizenship there for them to let you stay.  Either that or it has to be something political that embarasses the US government.  

 

It's not the second and I think Kraft is only a citizen of the United States.  So he couldn't just run from the law by flying to another country that doesn't extradite.

    • Nothing contradicts anything.   J’Ville if bad reckless spending and it got them one year of success out of 10.   No contradictions here.     As for Ballard, as he said at his year ender, the problem hasn’t been the FA spending or the roster.   The problem has been not being to get the quarterback right.  If Wentz had worked out, we wouldn’t be having this conversation.      I have no idea why you’d think Ballard should have considered the 4 big name players who Ballard didn’t pursue.   They went for HUGE money.   Ballard has zero interest in those guys.  As a fan who follows football closer than most I had zero interest in any of them.   And I had zero interest BEFORE they signed and it was expected they’d go for less.   I didn’t want them at most any price they would’ve wanted.    Of your longer list….  Frankie Luvu had some interest for me.  Maybe Geno stone.  Otherwise I believe there’s a list of safeties who are still available.   Remember Rodney McCloud?   Ballard signed him and he had perhaps the best year of his career.  Graded in the low 80’s for 1.7 mill.   That’s a Ballard signing.   People forget them.   They want bright lights and shiny new toys.     We should all know by now that’s not Ballard’s way.  
    • So spending to cover flaws works now? Seems to contradict you comment about the Jaguars.   To be clear, I don't want or expect Ballard to sign $35m/year players left and right. But there are plenty mid-range (pay-wise) guys who sign with other teams EVERY year that could've improved this roster.   This year OTOH: Frankie Luvu Sheldon Rankins Geno Stone Patrick Queen Jeremy Chinn Kevin Byard Jordan Fuller Sean Murphy-Bunting Kamren Curl   And several more expensive guys: Arik Armstead Christian Wilkins Bryce Huff Xavier McKinney Every year guys like these pass us by.
    • Off the top of my head….    Once.  Justin Houston who got 2/23.5.   And that worked out well.   
    • And those are about the best signings the Colts have done under Ballard in 8 years.    Has Ballard even spent over $10+m once in a FA? Gilmore maybe? That’s once. In going on 8 years.    Noone does what Ballard does and he hasn’t had success doing it, so noone’s trying to replicate it. 
    • For your consideration….   Nobody knew who Ebukam was when the Colts signed him week 2 last year.   And nobody knew who Denico Autry was when the Colts signed him in week 2.   “Who?” Was the most popular comment both times.  They turned out really well.      Im not sayin Ballard is going to do it again this year, it hasn’t happened every year, all I’m saying it’s happened from time to time so it’s still possible that CB will find a keeper that people here will like.
