The Wall Street Journal is reporting that prosecutors have offered to drop charges against Robert Kraft and others in the massage-parlor prostitution case.
The deal requires Kraft and the other defendants to admit that they would have been found guilty in a trial.
Kraft and the others would also be required to complete an education course about prostitution and 100 hours of community service, be screened for sexually transmitted diseases, and pay for court costs.

New England Patriots owner Robert Kraft and other defendants charged in the Florida massage-parlor prostitution scandal may be able to have the charges dropped as part of a deal, but there is a catch, according to Andrew Beaton of the Wall Street Journal .

According to the report, prosecutors have offered to drop the charges against Kraft and "a number of other men" who were charged with soliciting prostitution.

In exchange for the dropped charges, Beaton reports that the men would be required to admit they would have been found guilty in a trial. The Wall Street Journal called this provision "unusual."

The defendants would also be required to complete an education course on prostitution and 100 hours of community service, be screened for sexually transmitted diseases, and pay for court costs.

It is unclear if any of the defendants will accept the agreement.
