New England Patriots’ owner Robert Kraft has been charged on two counts of soliciting prostitution in Jupiter, Florida. The misdemeanor charges are part of a sex trafficking sting that has resulted in hundreds of arrests.

Kraft, 77, allegedly made two visits to the Orchids of Asia Day Spa, where he is accused of soliciting prostitution. Authorities in Florida said they have obtained video of Kraft participating in the alleged acts.

“The question was, ‘Does the video contain Mr. Kraft receiving the alleged act? The answer to that is yes,” Jupiter Police Det. Andrew Sharp told reporters Friday.

Charges have been filed against Kraft, though he hasn’t yet been arrested. Kraft has denied the charges.

Kraft was one of 25 people charged in the case. The rate was $59 for a half hour inside the massage parlor and $79 for an hour.

“We categorically deny that Mr. Kraft engaged in any illegal activity. Because it is a judicial matter, we will not be commenting further,” a Kraft spokesman said.

NFL insider Adam Schefter reported on ESPN that sources have said Kraft is not the biggest name involved in the case.
