INDIANAPOLIS — Subway's celebrated pitchman, ditched officially Tuesday as word leaked that he would be pleading guilty to child-sex and -porn charges, will spend at least five years in prison and pay $1.4 million to his victims after striking a deal with federal prosecutors, according to court documents released Wednesday.

Jared Fogle, 37, of Zionsville, Ind., commissioned the executive director of his charity to produce pornography using at least a dozen underage victims, one as young as 6, the charging documents say. Fogle jetted numerous times to New York City to have sex with at least two underage girls while soliciting one of them and other adult escorts in search of ever-younger victims.

“This is about using wealth, status and secrecy to illegally exploit children,” U.S. Attorney Josh Minkler said.

And Fogle repeatedly made his travel plans for sex to coincide with his business trips, according to the charging documents.

Does 5 years seem a bit lenient to any one else?  

 

 

It is at least 5 years, but that is what a plea does for you, you get some time taken off in exchange for not tying up the system/risk of not being able to prove it in court for something bigger. I wonder if the money paid goes to just the victims he had physical contact with, or if they are able to track down the ones in the videos and pay them as well.

Glad justice is being served

5 year sentence (he will get out early for good behavior) vs. a child's life being shattered in a way they will never forget. Huh. Not sure about the rest of you, but I would not in a million years call that anything remotely similar to justice.

5+ years in prison, 1.4 mil to the victims, and his wife and kids are leaving him, who will liquidate him of every last penny he has. Post prison he'll likely never get a job and could very well be homeless. I can see this guy ending up committing suicide.

Well said. I hope that rather nice house he has(had?) in Indiana is paid for, so his soon to be ex-wife and kids aren't homeless.

I think the number I saw was 14 kids at $100k apiece.
