Great burn by the judge about the $7 million he gave his wife. If I was her I would do all I could to protect my children against him.
He may not have abused them but you can't take that chance.

 

[Brannon]

Holyshiiit listening to the Dr. Phil audio tapes they recorded of this sick fuck is straight up insane. This dude might not survive in prison.

Nah, he's too high-profile; a celebrity criminal and child molester. He'll most likely be segregated from the general population and placed with the other child sex offenders for the duration of his stay.

 

[maxcriden]

I'm baffled that Subway and Jimmy Johns blew up while Quizno's is basically dead.

Quizno's is a billion times better than both of them combined.

Billion is a stretch. They all serve meat that has sat at warm temperatures for hours. On something you can barely call bread. With limp, sad vegetables that remind you of cafeteria nightmares. And dressing that dribbles onto the paper sub wrapper with asad, dejected ploop, as if to signal to all other dressings that it has truly given up.

 

[Astral Dog]

Its ok its only the mild, slightly more innocent version of pedphilia.

 

[Barrylocke]

Fogle possessed over 600 photos and videos of child porn, much of it provided for him by co-defendant Russell Taylor, former head of Fogle’s foundation. Taylor, who cooperated in the investigation and has yet to be sentenced, would tape his young family members and their friends for Fogle, prosecutors have said.

So that's how you make a person sound even slimier than just saying that they had pictures of naked 6 year olds on their computer.

I wonder if he'll wind up with less time in the end thanks to cooperation though.

 

[ghostjoke]

Weight loss causing a mild case of pedophilia. What the actual fuck? Good on the judge for taking no crap.

 

[D i Z]

This guy is going to spend the rest of his Subway fortune keeping himself safe in the joint.

 

[Black-Wind]

I remember reading an article about that a month or two back. Did we ever hear any more about it?

There's this ...

She asked her lawyer, Robert Beasley, to explore legal action against Subway for a potential breach of the franchiser-franchisee contact.

But Subway couldn't be found culpable, Beasley said, because Fogle wasn't an employee of Subway. Fogle was employed by the Subway Franchisee Advertising Fund Trust, or SFAFT.

SFAFT, which is in charge of Subway's global marketing, was legally viewed as a separate entity from Subway — even though it shares the same address as the company headquarters.
--
Mills says she went on to share her concerns about Fogle with two additional SFAFT executives at a Subway-sponsored NASCAR event in Phoenix, which she attended with her stepson. She'd won tickets to the event because she was a franchisee.

Mills said she was terrified that Jared might show up. She says she pulled two SFAFT executives aside and told them everything. They assured her that Fogle wasn't scheduled to attend the event.

And then this.

Two people now allege, however, that the company knew about Fogle's sexual interest in children as early as 2009.

A franchisee told us she informed Subway of untoward behavior by Fogle. And a former journalists says she notified Subway.

"When we first heard about an alleged complaint being made to the company about Jared Fogle, we immediately investigated and found no record that this was ever brought to our attention," Subway said in an emailed statement. "When we heard about the possibility of a second complainant, we began an investigation that is ongoing."

They're claiming to have had no clue about this and are "investigating" who may have been keeping it a secret even though at least 1 woman claims to have told 2 executives. That's the latest I can find.

 

[Greddleok]

It's not clear how much credence we should give the claims, since I haven't seen much backing it up. On the other hand, the descriptions of what happened map pretty neatly to similar bullshit at Penn St. Let me find a link.

Edit:
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/subway-franchisee-jared-fogle-crimes_55e0898be4b0b7a96338b3ba

And here's Subway's tepid response, which I hadn't seen before: http://www.people.com/article/subway-responds-jared-fogle-sex-minors-claims

The stuff the woman says is basically just hearsay. Unless she can provide evidence, it could just be someone jumping on the bandwagon.

Subway denies they knew anything...well of course they would. Both claims could easily be true or false, it's probably best to just ignore that part of the story until facts become available.

 

[jurgen]

It's interesting. He gets 15 years in prison after almost 15 years of being famous for eating fast food sandwiches.

This is a weird world we live in.

 

[Sapiens]

15 years might not be enough.

Honestly it sounds like a sub-plot in a movie when you put it like that.

 

[harSon]

Just read the guy had 5.6 terabytes of the stuff between him and his friend. That's like a mindblowing huge amount. That much regular porn would be insane.

I'm fucking pissed that theres 5.6tb worth of child suffering on the internet....

 

[Symphonia]

“There’s no evidence I know that he molested a child... 16- or 17-year-olds are not pre-pubertal children.”

And this guy was Fogle's defense attorney? He really should brush up on the law before taking on a case. Idiot.

 

[FStubbs]

I'm surprised the thread has made it this far without a prison rape joke (unless I missed it).

New York Post has you covered:

 

[Ziltoidia 9]

What were the details on the porn they had on hard drives? Was there an age range?

 

[Jigorath]

THAT was the best defense his lawyers could come up with?

They must have tanked the case on purpose lol.

Enjoy prison douchebag.

 

[dejay]

You could say he became...sub-human.

 

[Slayer-33]

Subway sandwiches are being eaten by adults right now

Stay safe everyone

Ayyyyy

 

[ratcliffja]

Actually, *pushes glasses up nose* it's called ephebophilia

Nah, he definitely was going after REALLY young kids (like under 10 years old) according to the audio tapes. He's absolutely a pedophile and one that wanted to use his money and power to act on it.

 

[BrahReally]

Listen up detectives!

( love this picture)

Life isn't some Black Forest Ham where you can just waltz through. The whole systems Cheddar. You can be chicken or you can be Bacon on the Ranch Melt. Being attracted to something considered illegal is a Cold Cut Combo for bad things. Back in the day when Mobsters and Italian B.M.T's ran the streets you'd be a Meatball Marinara if you looked at a single child. These days you're just an Oven Roasted Chicken for not owning up for your crimes. They're gonna make Roast Beef out that Spicy Italian. Oh in there won't be Steak and Cheese either. They're gonna go straight Subway Club on him in there.

Before he knows it, some guy named Bubba will be looking at him like a Sweet Onion Chicken Teriyaki and all he's gonna feel like is a Tuna. Well personally I like women with beautiful Turkey Breast or Large Turkey Breast with some Black Forest Hams If you catch my drift Muahah!. Anyway, i'm just some Turkey Italiano melt myself and women of my dreams don't exist anymore so I'm just gonna have to settle with a Yoga doing, Tarroh Card reading, meditating, everyday Juicing Veggie Dellte.

Oh my, this is something else.

 

[FStop7]

I think I said "fuck yoooou" out loud at least three times reading the article in the OP.

 

[Herbs]

failed twinkie defense

 

[Slayven]

I hate to say this but to be devil's advocate for his attorney, sometimes the client can hang himself so badly before day one of trial your only shot is to throw shit against the wall. And pray you get a stupid jury or judge

 

[JeTmAn81]

“He was mostly attracted to females who were teenagers, who were 14 to 17 years of age. His attraction was at the high end of that range.”

Hopefully he ends up spending the high end of his sentence in jail instead of getting paroled early. I won't go so far as to wish that he'd get the sharp end of a shiv.

 

[Nudull]

I'd say one's first mistake was representing someone like Jared in court to begin with.

 

[nilbog21]

6 year olds? what the fuck

 

[Cindi Mayweather]

5.6 Terabytes? How? HOW?

 

[Zephyrettes]

Because of the sandwiches, his defense reportedly argued in court. It was all because of the sandwiches.

I laughed harder than I should have at work.

 

[Black-Wind]

What were the details on the porn they had on hard drives? Was there an age range?

"Prosecutors laid out why his child porn conviction is so heinous ... there was an enormous amount of child porn in the various devices of Fogle and Russell Taylor, including 5.6 terabytes of data. There were 16 smart phones, 6 laptops, 22 DVDs, 159,634 text messages, 3,394 videos and 47,623 pictures."

Age range was as young as 6.

 

[PHOENIXZERO]

I think 15 years is a lot more than what we expected but good.

5.6TB worth of data is absolutely insane.

 

[Team Alucard]

Fucking disgusting.

 

[Ishida]

"Prosecutors laid out why his child porn conviction is so heinous ... there was an enormous amount of child porn in the various devices of Fogle and Russell Taylor, including 5.6 terabytes of data.

Holy shit. This is just... Wow...

Good god. He was way deep into this, really no defense for it.

 

[Suikoguy]

That defense was desperate, was there any evidence at all to support that claim where weight-loss changes sexual desires?

Nevermind that the stated hyper-sexuality != pedophilia

 

[Napoleonthechimp]

The only thing I heard about this is that he fucked a 16 year old girl. While still being illegal in most places it is still within the bounds of legality in some places (note: I'm not defending it).

From what I gathered following this Scandal ... that's bullshit. He was apparently trying to get the Subway woman who was secretly working with the FBI to put spy cams in the rooms of her 12 yo daughter and 13 son's rooms. She also says he told her he fucked a 9 yo. And apparently the child porn on his comp was of kids as young as 6.

But this... god damn.

 

[PsychBat!]

Hope they make fun of him again.

 

[Killing_Joke]

Gotta give the defense some credit. That's an excuse i never thought i would here. I'll be staying away from subway as an extra precaution though...

"Prosecutors laid out why his child porn conviction is so heinous ... there was an enormous amount of child porn in the various devices of Fogle and Russell Taylor, including 5.6 terabytes of data.

What...the....fuck...and only 15 years? Wow. I'm honestly surprised the dude didn't flee the country after he was literally helping the FBI carry all that shit to their trucks.

 

[K.Jack]

Should've gone all in, and blamed Subway's high levels of manganese.

 

[Cereal KiIIer]

15 years. Just like he likes them.

All of that shit, and he only gets 15 years?

 

[FUME5]

15 years. Just like he likes them.

[aspiegamer]

We need a new law that issues sentencing per terabyte of offending material. Minimum 10 years each. I'd shack him up for life, but I don't get to make these decisions. For some extra misery he'll probably be in solitary confinement most of the time to keep him out of general population and public areas.

That defense was desperate, was there any evidence at all to support that claim where weight-loss changes sexual desires?

Nevermind that the stated hyper-sexuality != pedophilia

Anecdotally I've heard from people that an improvement in one's self image might restore lost sexual desire, but it would never cover an interest in children, lol.

It absolutely does (especially if others look at you as a potential sexual prospect for the first time). But as you note it ain't going to drive you to fuck kids, not unless that was already in your brain to begin with.

 

[Morrigan Stark]

I think this part warrants more attention than it's receiving:

Fogle possessed over 600 photos and videos of child porn, much of it provided for him by co-defendant Russell Taylor, former head of Fogle’s foundation. Taylor, who cooperated in the investigation and has yet to be sentenced, would tape his young family members and their friends for Fogle, prosecutors have said.

What the fucking fuck

 

[LeroyPantwether]

Soooo what is the over under on how many years it takes before he gets killed in prison?

 

[Brian Griffin]

LOL, I guess if you're pretty much fucked already why not try some crazy defense. Regardless, even if the weight loss DID turn him into a pedo, it was his decision to abuse kids. You can be a pedo and still know that kid touching is fucking wrong.

Soooo what is the over under on how many years it takes before he gets killed in prison?

He's probably going to be in solitary for his protection for his whole sentence.

 

[inm8num2]

Fucking Subway...IIRC they were informed by at least one person of Fogel's actions a few years ago and swept it under the rug. I take no enjoyment out of this sick, disturbing saga, but I would not mind if this ridiculous defense became something of a meme/PR nightmare for Subway beyond what it already is.

Those dipshits at Subway should think about making donations and supporting charities to help victims of abuse. Maybe they already have done so.

 

[King Tubby]

The most shocking part is the 5.6 terabytes honestly.

 

[-ShadowEmbracer-]

If this isn't copy/pasta it should be.

Made the whole thing up. Went to the Subway website and looked at their sandwiches for inspiration. It's in order too.
