Although Jared Fogle thinks his prison sentence of almost 16-years is too much, his former accomplice in crime, Russell Taylor, insists it was former Subway spokesman who coerced him in committing his most perverse acts. According to the latest gossip news updates, Taylor, who was the head of Fogel's foundations, claims that Jared once asked him to give date rape drugs to his own children, so that the sandwich pitchman could molest them without their being any the wiser. Taylor, even claims that Jared sexually humiliated him during their time together as well, often making Russell thank him by calling him "daddy."
It would seem that despite admitting to obtaining child pornography and paying to have sex with underage girls, Jared Fogle believes that his sentence of 15-years and 8-months is just too harsh a punishment.
After bargaining with the prosecution for no more than 12-and-half-years, Jared is appealing Judge Tanya Walton Pratt decision to tack on a few more years to make sure that Fogle is properly punished.
According to Pratt, Jared deserves a longer sentence despite whatever deal his expensive lawyers might have already made with the state (via People):
"The level of perversion and lawlessness exhibited by Mr. Fogle is extreme."
While there is no way to be certain, but perhaps the Judge was taking into account the terribly perverse acts that Jared's partner in crime, Russell Taylor, attributed to his former boss in his trial.
In recently released court documents, Taylor alleges that Jared used the power he held over Russell as his boss and landlord to pressure him into installing cameras in his children's' room for Fogle's sexual enjoyment.
Taylor even claims that in 2012, Jared went so far as to ask him to roofie his kids, so he could molest them without their knowledge (via NY Post):
"He wanted me to drug kids, to knock them out (so he could) touch them."
Taylor goes on to insist that Jared also humiliated and abused him psychologically during the time he worked for Fogle's charity foundation -- often making him call him "daddy":
"He would say, 'Who is paying for this stuff?' And I would say, 'You are, daddy.'"
What do you think about Jared Fogle's sentencing?
Is 12-and-half-years long enough for him to suffer in light of the financial restitutions that he has already made to his victims?
Or, should the Subway sicko be locked away forever so he can never harm another child ever again?
