offered to drop those charges if kraft admits he would have been found guilty at trial. let s go first to cnn correspondent rosa flores who is in miami. tell me more about this deal. reporter: brooke, you hit the nail on the head right there because there is a catch to this offer and i should reiterate that this is according to the the wall street journal. we are still trying to confirm this information. we ve reached out to prosecutors and attorneys to try to get more information, but you re absolutely right. what we re learning, according to the the wall street journal, is that prosecutors here in florida have offered robert kraft a deal. some sort of prosecution deal that would drop the charges, but the catch is that he would have to admit that if this were to go to trial, that he would be found guilty. now, the punishment, this would also include some punishment. it would include 100 hours of community service, an education course about prostitution an a screening for stds.
