ZIONSVILLE, Ind. (July 7, 2015) – Federal authorities raided the home of Subway spokesman Jared Fogle Tuesday morning. FBI sources told FOX59 state and federal investigators were serving warrants at Fogle’s Zionsville home in connection with a child pornography investigation.

Earlier this year, Russell Taylor, the former director of the Jared Foundation started by Fogle, was arrested in a child pornography case. He was accused of possessing and producing child pornography. Investigators said a search of Taylor’s home turned up more than 500 videos with images of child pornography. In May, Taylor unsuccessfully tried to kill himself while in jail.

credit to fluffydelusions from the Bill Cosby thread for pointing this out

Edit: At the time this thread was made, nothing incriminating has been reported to be found yet, so hold off on jumping to any conclusions.

Update: http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showpost.php?p=171178717&postcount=152
from TMZ:
We've obtained the criminal complaint against Taylor ... and it says police recovered a 4 GB thumb drive and his employer, the Jared Foundation, was listed in a file name. Inside that file was a folder labeled, "Good stuff." Cops found a bunch of child pornography in that folder.

Since Taylor mixed work files with child porn ... it could explain why the FBI is searching Fogle's home. Jared himself, is not mentioned in the docs police found at Taylor's home office.

To be fair, it's just a warrant to investigate his home in a possible connection.

Let's wait and see if anything is pinned on him.

Let's not tar and feather him just yet.

But the optics are a bit terrible for him right now.

Yea this is true.. his being a spokesman for anything is over either way.

Innocent or guilty, it isn't looking good for the guy. I hope he has wisely saved/invested his money, because when Subway drops him, it is going to be difficult road.

*writes down "Has Been Actor Getting Caught With Child Porn" in his notebook of things he can't make jokes about*
 
He just wanted to give them aides

Edit: of course I'm beaten to the punch

But yeah in all seriousness: that's pretty horrible. Subway is probably scrambling to disassociate themselves from him right now.

The flight plan I just filed with the agency list me, my men, Dr. Pavel here. But only one of you!

"Eat Fresh" jokes would have been dope if he was caught being a Hannibal-esque cannibal, though. This just wasn't the time or place.

Oh man, I need to expect better from GAF. I was fully expecting the first page to be nothing but 5 dollar foot long jokes.

Also, this is crazy?

EDIT: okay, a smattering of 'eat fresh' here and there. I feel justified now.

Some of you sound awfully like you're defending him.

Even if he did help you lose weight, you can't just flat out defend this.

He isn't guilty of anything, though. Not yet. That is a fairly important distinction.
