Michael Rubin Releases Big Statement About Robert Kraft After Resolution Of The Prostitution Investigation

Patriots owner Robert Kraft found himself in big trouble after being charged with two counts of soliciting prostitution. Coaches, players and owners have expressed their opinion on the prostitution sting, and Michael Rubin is one of them.

The co-owner of the Philadelphia 76ers and New Jersey Devils believes that Kraft will be stronger than ever.

“I think a lot of the true details will come out over time and won’t be as people believe,” Rubin said Wednesday afternoon at the World Congress of Sports at Monarch Beach Resort in southern California. “I think the great thing with Robert is that he’ll figure out how to make the country and the world a better place as a result of what he’s gone through.”

Rubin and Kraft are really good friends. According to Rubin, the whole process is “eye-opening” for the Patriots owner.

“I think the biggest thing that I’ve talked to Robert about every day these days is he’s finally seeing what it’s like to be a player in the NFL and a player in the NBA when you have experiences with law enforcement that aren’t the way that you thought that they were going to be,” Rubin said.

He also talked about the possibility that the case is a setup, noting the details about the illegal installation of hidden cameras at the Orchids of Asia Day Spa. The legal team suggests that the Patriots owner was illegally videoed. They have already filed a notion to remove the video evidence from the case due to the method through it was obtained.

“Now, Robert’s like, ‘Man, I get what our players go through when they get pulled over and they’re discriminated against,’” Rubin said. “To be honest, he was like me. A year and a half ago, I thought the criminal justice system worked perfectly in 99.9 percent of the situations. Today, I recognize it doesn’t work well in most of the situations — not because they’re bad people but because the system is fundamentally broken.”

Prior to the scandal Rubin, Kraft, rapper Meek Mill and others launched the REFORM Alliance, an organication focused on lobbying for changes to state probation and parole laws.
