In another encounter, prosecutors allege, Kraft arrived at the spa in a blue Bentley, dressed casually in a dark shirt, blue baseball cap, and blue shorts. Once inside the room, Kraft allegedly “turned over onto his back” before “the lights in the room go out,” though a hand can be seen giving him a handjob. Two minutes later, the video shows a woman “wiping Kraft’s penis with a white towel.”

The billionaire and the dozens of other alleged johns were snared in a law enforcement operation that shuttered 10 massage parlors across central Florida. The misdemeanors carry a penalty of up to a year in jail and a $500 fine.
“I [can] assure you our office treats everyone the same, whether you have a lot of money or [you’re] indigent” Aronberg said. “This is not about lonely old men.”
Authorities say women working at the parlors were little more than sex slaves to owners, though law enforcement has not charged anybody for human trafficking.
“There’s no allegation that any defendant engaged in human trafficking,” Aronberg said.
The charges against Kraft stem from an investigation into the spa that began in October 2018. Over 100 men have been identified in the sting operation, including John Havens, the former chief operation officer for Citigroup. Police also arrested the spa’s owner, Hua Zhang, and its manager, Lei Wang. The women working at the spa, many of them from China, lived in squalid conditions inside and were not allowed to leave, authorities allege.
“This is not about lonely old men and victimless crimes, this is about forcing women into our country for forced labor and sex,” Aronberg said.
