Summary
Former Subway pitchman Jared Fogle claims he was tricked by federal prosecutors into pleading guilty to child pornography charges.
Those charges led to a jury conviction, and now Fogle remains housed at the Federal Correctional Institution Englewood in Colorado. He was sentenced to 15 years and 8 months. His earliest possible release date is set for March 24, 2029.
Fogle rose to fame after claiming he lost more than 200 lbs. with a diet of Subway sandwiches. He appeared in ads for the franchise for over a decade. In 2015, Fogle was fired after he admitted to having sex with at least two minors and to obtaining child pornography of at least 12 others.
Now, we learn that one of Fogle's prison jobs is making sandwiches in the prison café.
