FBI knew Jared Fogle was a pedophile — and let him continue molesting children for years anyway

The story was reignited two days ago when the New York Post revealed the contents of secretly recorded audio tapes. In them, Fogle’s perversions are laid bare.

“I would fly us clear across the world if we need to. To Thailand or wherever we want to go. If we’re gonna try to get some young kids with us it would be a lot easier,” said 38-year-old Fogle, married father of two, in the tapes. “I had a little boy. It was amazing. It just felt so good. I mean, it felt — it felt so good.”

The recordings were made by Rochelle Herman-Walrond, a former Florida journalist who took it upon herself to stop Fogle after hearing him profess his sexual taste for children. Masking her own disgust, she befriended Fogle so she could record and expose him.

She contacted the Federal Bureau of Investigation, who asked her to wear a wire. Glossed over in the mainstream media, however, is the fact that the entire process took ten years, according to an interview Herman-Walrond gave to ABC News.

She wore a wire for four-and-a-half years before the FBI took action and arrested Fogle.

“That was my biggest question, ‘Why was it taking so long?’” journalist Rochelle Herman-Walrond told ABC affiliate WWSB. “A case of this size just happens to take that long, and that’s what I was told.”

Herman-Walrond said she believes the total numbers of victims in Fogle’s perverteds spree is greater than 14, in the United States and “international tours” including Thailand.

fuckers!
So they let him molest children for ten fucking years?
Wasn't the FIRST ONE enough? This is outrageous!

Knowing someone is a crock hand having proof that will hold up in court isn't the same thing. Fogle wasn't stupid, he knew "plausible deniability".

From Fark:

Disamb,
Well aware of that and have seen it for myself. Those memories never fade. There are things that have never been discussed here, like the male sea org member/flag crew who would babysit children of crew and show them porn movies, then there's the ................

Ten years though? They had a mole with a wire! How long until those records are available via FOIA? I'd like to know what they knew and when in relation to the victim time line. The culpability here is upsetting to say the least.

Wish I did. Just lots of crap I observed. If the records still exist, I would love to go through the ethics files and GO files on those people. The cult either ordered scumbags to stop or RPF'd them. They never reformed. Take Tony Strawn for example. L. Ron and Mary Sue knew he was a pedophile while he was on the Apollo, and thought they could ethics handle and auditing out the "evil purposes" and "body thetans".

There's a lot about him online.

Jared Fogle’s Ex-Wife Says Subway Knew Its Spokesman Was a Pedophile | The Daily Beast

Quote:

Jared Fogle’s ex-wife claims Subway knew of the former spokesman’s sexual interest in children as early as 2004 but failed to report their “cash cow” to police.

In a lawsuit filed Monday, Katie McLaughlin says the sandwich chain even kept Fogle’s pedophilia allegations secret from her, because executives believed their marriage would keep Fogle “grounded.”

Despite receiving tips that Fogle solicited children, Subway sent their pudgy promoter into elementary schools as part of “Tour de Pants” and other nationwide events in 2004 and 2008, court papers allege.

“The safety of kids was not a priority but Subway’s bottom line was,” the lawsuit says. “To drive sales, Subway ignored its corporate responsibility and provided a platform for him to prey on children by sending him to elementary schools all over the country.”

The litigation comes days after one of Fogle’s victims — an Indiana girl who was secretly filmed at the residence of his best friend and children’s nonprofit director, Russell Taylor — dropped a lawsuit against Fogle without a settlement.

At a press conference Monday, McLaughlin held back tears as she told reporters she filed the suit to get answers from Subway.

“Finding out that your husband and the father of your children is a child predator and knowing that his job involved him visiting schools on a regular basis is devastating,” McLaughlin said.

“Finding out that Subway did not act upon at least one complaint while continuing to utilize Jared as their spokesperson and facilitate his visits to those hundreds of schools is beyond comprehension,” she added.

“I filed this lawsuit today because I have questions, questions that someday my children will ask me, and that I imagine the families of the 14 victims are asking,” McLaughlin continued. “Questions like: What did Subway know? When did they know it?”

McLaughlin’s attorney, Mike Antrim, said private efforts to obtain information from Subway were unsuccessful.

Jared Fogle, former Subway huckster, turned to an indie Scientologist for failed ‘appeal’

By Tony Ortega, The Underground Bunker, November 15, 2017

Quote:

We’ve seen numerous stories reporting that Jared Fogle, the disgraced former Subway restaurants pitchman, tried to pull a fast one with a bogus appeal written by a fellow inmate, a jailhouse lawyer, whose attempt to get Fogle’s conviction overturned on jurisdictional grounds didn’t fly with a U.S. district judge.

Fogle is serving 15.5 years in prison for receiving child pornography from Russell Taylor, a man who worked for Fogle at his foundation, and for traveling across state lines in order to procure sex with a minor. He’s been in prison since November 2015.

Most of the news coverage on this new appeal is focusing on a single line from it, which, the news coverage tells us, argues that Fogle’s conviction should be overturned because he’s a “sovereign citizen.”

Here’s how the usually reliable Courthouse News put it, for example: “Fellow inmate Frank Pate filed a motion for Fogle, claiming the court lacked jurisdiction over Fogle because of his status as a so-called ‘sovereign citizen’.”

That name, Frank Pate, immediately jogged a memory. We know that guy! He’s an “independent Scientologist” who was put in prison for 17.5 years after running a relatively small-scale Ponzi scheme that ripped off about $2 million from other indie Scientologists by promising to make them money investing in foreign currencies.

Curious about what Pate had actually submitted to the court on Fogle’s behalf, we got our hands on the document itself, rather than just the judge’s denial which most news organizations seem to be relying on. Sovereign citizen filings tend to be absolutely wacky, and we were hoping Pate might have dropped in a tell-tale bit of Scientology jargon here and there.

But that wasn’t the case. In fact, the document really took us by surprise, and we realized that the news coverage about it is all wrong. Pate wasn’t forwarding a “sovereign citizen” argument at all — in fact, that phrase never appears in the 23-page document, even though the Courthouse News put it in quote marks.

We’ll let you look at the document itself, below. Pate may be full of shit, but what he’s arguing is that Fogle shouldn’t have been subject to federal charges for what were admittedly horrific crimes.

In order to make it a federal case, it was argued that Fogle received kiddie porn images from his friend across state lines, but Pate argues that the two men were actually in the same city. (As an earlier appeal denial made clear, however, Fogle traveled a lot in his job hawking sandwiches and communicated with Taylor by email.) Pate also argues that when Fogle traveled, he was doing so for Subway, and not specifically to have sex with a minor. But that doesn’t really address the statute Fogle violated, and it’s an argument we wouldn’t expect the court to break a sweat denying.

However, U.S. District Judge Tanya Pratt based her denial on something else entirely: Pate’s use of the word “sovereign.”

Take a look yourself at how Pate used it in the appeal:

The Supreme Court offers more guidance on the issue of the sovereign party’s ability to exercise authority: “But whether a judicial judgment is lawful depends on whether the sovereign has authority to render it.” (180 LED 2D 765, 564 873 McUbtrye Ltd. v. NICASTRO)

If you look at that passage in context, it’s pretty clear that Pate, in referring to the “sovereign party,” is referring to the federal government and whether it had jurisdiction in this case.

But here’s what Judge Pratt says about it: “If Fogle is now claiming to be ‘sovereign,’ the Seventh Circuit has rejected theories of individual sovereignty, immunity from prosecution, and their ilk.”

Um, what? Did Judge Pratt simply see the word “sovereign” and roll her eyes and decide this was a “sovereign citizen” filing, missing the point that Pate was referring to the people who put Fogle away, and not Fogle himself?
