A Florida judge blocked release of surveillance video in Robert Kraft's solicitation of prostitution case Tuesday, but the ruling also sent a signal the video might be released at some point.
Palm Beach County Judge Leonard Hanser ruled that releasing the video, which has been described as graphic, could prejudice potential jurors. But Hanser also said that once any threats to a fair trial have passed, the video might be released.
The video was taken as part of a prostitution and human-trafficking investigation into the Orchids of Asia Day Spa in Jupiter, Florida. The state of Florida has some of the nation's broadest open-records laws, and last week prosecutors said they intended to release the video as soon as possible because state law compels them to do so.
