President Donald Trump hosted a Super Bowl watch party attended by Li Yang, the 45-year-old founder of a chain of Asian day spas in South Florida, according to the Miami Herald.
Nineteen days later, authorities charged Patriots owner Robert Kraft with soliciting prostitution at Orchids of Asia Day Spa, an establishment Yang founded and sold. During a sting operation, investigators say they captured video of Kraft paying for and receiving oral sex at the business on Jan. 20. Kraft has denied all wrongdoing.
While Yang no longer owns that establishment, she still owns other spas, including the Tokyo Day Spa branches. A massage therapist at one of those branches told police in 2016 that employees were selling sex with the approval of management.
Yang’s Facebook page includes photos of her with Trump and his sons, Eric and Donald Jr. She has also made donations to Trump’s campaign in excess of $16,000 with another $42,000 going to Trump Victory, a joint fundraising committee for the president.
