Sorry Fish, but you have it backwards

Krafts lawyers do NOT want it going anywhere, they want it quashed exactly where it is, and that is what they will get unless the video is admitted into evidence. Without the video and with the other "evidence" like the bogus traffic stop already thrown out, the prosecution will have no case to move forward with, and most likely Kraft's attorneys will move that the case be dismissed "with prejudice" and that will be the end of it.

 
I noticed you didn't add your usual disclaimer "still not a lawyer"

but there is a reason Kraft hired real lawyers and not you to defend him. As I predicted from the beginning his best defense was to have the illegal videos suppressed and that's exactly what happened today. The warrant was quashed and all "the fruit of the poisoned" tree was thrown out along with the governments case. Without the illegally obtained "sex tapes" I can't imagine the government having much of a case. As I said on the very first day, the other defendants were VERY lucky to have someone like Kraft as a co-defendant.

 
I think all of us can breathe a little easier knowing that Big Brother only has so much reach and that it's now VERY unlikely that anything like this could happen to any of us. Let's celebrate a victory for the good guys today, even if you do hate the Patriots. lol

 
Sorry I didn't include a link, but I am not sure about TER's current position about allowing them. It's very easy to Google however.

With FOSTA/SETSA, I imagine (though I have no personal knowledge) that every municipality with a hard on for Vice arrests is now proposing prostitution stings as anti-trafficking programs, rather than "nuisance reduction."  
.
Flying the "Trafficking Flag" gets them funding, local politician support (because what elected official is going to say no to anti-trafficking efforts?), and when the busts roll in, national media attention.  So a huge "atta boy" to all who got in on the right side of this LE effort.  
.
But as has been pointed out earlier, virtually NONE of the charges filed ever include actual trafficking violations. They all reduce to simple prostitution, whether the defendant fights, or pleads out.  
.
And the preliminary data about the adverse impact of FOSTA/SETSA on SW's is ringing true to the predictions. SW's are much less safe in the post legislation world.
