49ers owner Jed York arrested in prostitution bust

San Francisco 49ers owner Jed York was arrested on suspicion of engaging in prostitution in Ohio over the weekend, the California Post confirmed.

York pleaded no contest on Monday after the state of Ohio amended the one count of engaging in prostitution to a disorderly conduct charge.

Court documents obtained by the California Post on Monday state York responded to an ad on a known prostitution website and “arranged to have sexual activity with the female in exchange for $140.”

The 46-year-old from Youngstown, Ohio was arrested in a trailer park on Sunday in East Palestine, 30 minutes south of Yorktown, and booked into Columbiana County Jail.

He was also convicted of “possessing criminal tools”, with a court filing also showing that York’s attorney stated he completed an online course.

York and his wife Danielle Belluomini have two sons, Jaxon and Brixton. It was reported after news of the arrest surfaced that York had previously filed for divorce from his wife back in May 2026.

A judge sentenced York to one day in jail per each count, which will be served concurrently.

He was fined $150 for the disorderly conduct conviction and $1,000 for possessing criminal tools .

York was named CEO of the franchise in 2008, which has been owned by the family since 1977.

York was born and raised in Youngstown, Ohio, where his grandfather, Edward J. DeBartolo Sr., made his fortune with the Edward J. Bartolo Corporation, which became the largest shopping mall builder in the country by 1982.

East Palestine, where he was arrested, is about 30 minutes south.

Here’s the latest on Jed York’s arrest:

• 49ers owner Jed York arrested in prostitution bust
• Embarrassing details of 49ers owner Jed York’s $140 trailer park prostitution arrest emerge
• 49ers decline to address embarrassing arrest of owner Jed York
• 49ers owner Jed York filed for divorce from wife months before prostitution sting arrest
• Inside the trailer park where 49ers chief was arrested for allegedly trying to pay $140 for sex worker

In 2023, York was sued for insider trading related to his role on the board of Chegg, a Santa Clara-based so-called “homework help” company that’s been accused of enabling cheating.

The court documents reportedly allege that York and his colleagues at the online educational support company sold off their Chegg stock at the top of the market without informing investors about the extent to which it provided students with real-time answers to their exams.

York made $1.4 million in profit after selling off 20,000 shares “at artificially inflation prices,” the suit said.

However, York denied wrongdoing and called the claims “completely frivolous.”

The related Chegg securities litigation was ultimately settled for $55 million without any admission of wrongdoing.
