Home of Subway's spokesman,Jared Fogle searched for child videos etc...

[Lynn49]

Investigators raided the Indiana home oflongtime Subway pitchman Jared Fogle on Tuesday morning, seizing electronics in a search that the sandwich chain says might be linked to the earlier arrest of someone who once worked for him.

Agents took computers from Fogle's home in Zionsville, just north of Indianapolis, after arriving at about 6 a.m., Fogle attorney Ron Elberger said, without disclosing what they were looking for.
Elberger said Fogle, the man who soared to fame 15 years ago after saying he shed more than 200 pounds in part through a Subway diet, has not been charged or arrested.
The sandwich chain said Tuesday that it was parting ways with Fogle.

Authorities have previously said that the foundation's former executive director was charged in early May with seven counts of production of child ography and one count of possession of child ography.

Okay, apparently this stems from a business relationship gone sour with a former employee, but still.......why would Jared still have it in his home?
The parting of the ways with Subway seems rather premature if that's the case....guilty until proven innocent?
Makes me wonder if there's more to this story......

Subway sure can't take a chance on this guy, but if he is proven innocent they are in for a huge law suit.

I think there's not enough info yet.

[Lynn49]

Oh, absolultely! This news just broke yesterday...lots more to come. But.....so weird....

I felt the same as you Lynn, Natalka. The " proof " has to be gathered, we eventually will hear ALL the details I'm sure but I am really hoping he is NOT guilty of what they are claiming.

Absolutely, Walks....another 'good guy' biting the dust? Not something anyone needs lately....

Ditto... too soon to make any judgments. Really hope he has no involvement in anything improper.

According to the plea deal and indictment:
• Between 2011 and April 2015, Fogle received from Taylor multiple ographic images of minors engaging in sexually explicit contact.
• Fogle had conversations with Taylor about the child , but instead of alerting authorities, he "chose to benefit from such production by obtaining access to a significant amount of such material."
• The images and videos were recorded by Taylor at his home through the use of hidden cameras.
• Between 2010 and February 2013, Fogle traveled from Indiana to New York to pay to have sex with minors.
• One victim told investigators she had sex with Fogle twice when she was 17 in exchange for money, once at the Plaza Hotel and once at the Ritz Carlton, both in New York City.
• The same minor also said that Fogle had sex with her three other times before 2012, when she was 16.
• Prosecutors say that text messages, travel records, hotel records and a search of Fogle's home provided evidence of these arrangements.
• The same minor said Fogle had sex with another 16-year-old girl on another occasion.
• Prosecutors say they have talked to witnesses who can testify about conversations Fogle had with them offering a "finder's fee" for seeking minors for him.
The agreement says Fogle will adhere to a ography ban and sexual disorders treatment, and he will have no unsupervised visits with minors, among other requirements.
Computer monitoring will be required, too.

The plea deal, filed in court Wednesday, would see him serve between five and 12½ years in prison.
The court will have to approve the agreement, in which Fogle pleads guilty to possessing and distributing child , and to traveling across state lines to have sex with at least two teenage girls.
Under the plea deal, the government agrees to recommend less than 13 years in prison for Fogle. Also, Fogle's lawyers agree to ask the judge for no less than a 5-year prison term.
Fogle will also pay restitution to the 14 victims who were secretly photographed in the images possessed by Fogle or who he paid for sex. Each victim will get $100,000 from Fogle, funds intended for counseling, support and other assistance.

Jared Fogle's wife of five years, Katie McLaughlin, has decided to leave the former Subway spokesperson after he was scheduled to plead guilty to child ography charges.



"Obviously, I am extremely shocked and disappointed by the recent developments involving Jared," McLaughlin said in a statement to the media. "I am in the process of seeking a dissolution of the marriage."

McLaughlin and Fogle have two children of their own.

The 37-year-old TV personality and McLaughlin were married in July 2010 after knowing each other nearly 10 years. McLaughlin is Fogle’s second wife. He was married to Elizabeth Fogle from 2001 to 2007.
