THE FBI HAS SUBPOENAED TEXT MESSAGES
BETWEEN SUBWAY'S JARED FOGLE, AND A FORMER SUBWAY FRANCHISEE.
THE FORMER SUBWAY FRANCHISEE IS UNIDENTIFIED, WE DO
NOT KNOW HER IDENTITY YET, BUT APPARENTLY SHE HAD A SEXUAL
RELATIONSHIP WITH JARED FOGLE.
THROUGH THAT RELATIONSHIP, WHICH
HAPPENED IN 2008, THEY HAD A FEW TEXT MESSAGE EXCHANGES THAT
PROVED THAT HE WAS INTO SOME QUESTIONABLE THINGS, INCLUDING
PAYING FOR SEX WITH A
SIXTEEN-YEAR-OLD GIRL.
I SHOULD NOTE, IN THE STATE FOGLE LIVES IN,
INDIANA, THE AGE OF CONSENT IS SIXTEEN YEARS OLD, BUT GENERALLY
SPEAKING YOU ARE NOT SUPPOSED TO
BE PAYING FOR SEX IN THE U.S. FOGLE ASKED THE FORMER SUBWAY
FRANCHISEE IN MAY 2008 TO SET UP A MEETING FOR HIM AND HER COUSIN.
THE COUSIN WAS UNDER AGE AT THE TIME, ACCORDING TO THE
WOMAN'S LAWYER.
ALSO, WE HAVE SOME EXAMPLES OF THE EXCHANGES
THEY HAD.
BUSINESS INSIDER POSTED SOME OF THOSE
EXCHANGES.
HE WAS TRYING TO CONVINCE HER TO HAVE A THREESOME
WITH HER UNDER AGED COUSIN, WHICH IS AMAZING.
ALSO, ON JUNE 19,
THE LAWYER SAYS THAT, "ON JUNE 19, THE LAWYER SAYS THAT FOGLE
ASKED THE WOMAN TO ADVERTISE HERSELF ON CRAIGSLIST.
SHE
RESPONDS: "IS THIS THE SAME WEBSITE YOU FOUND THAT
SIXTEEN-YEAR-OLD GIRL THAT YOU F**EDñ?
I STILL CAN'T BELIEVE YOU
ONLY PAID $100 FOR HER."
FOGLE REPEATEDLY ASKED THE WOMAN TO
ADVERTISE HERSELF ON CRAIGSLIST
FOR SEX WITH OTHER MEN.
I GUESS HE IS INTO BEING CUCKOLDED,
WHICH ISN'T ILLEGAL, BUT HE'S GOT ALL SORTS OF WEIRD SEXUAL
FANTASIES GOING ON.
THE
INCREDIBLE THING IS THAT SHE ALLEGEDLY ONCE WENT TO THE
PEOPLE AT SUBWAY TO LET THEM KNOW WHAT WAS GOING ON, AND THAT
SHE WAS UNCOMFORTABLE WITH IT, AND SUBWAY DID NOTHING.
THEY
DID NOTHING UNTIL JARED FOGLE'S HOUSE WAS RAIDED BY THE
FBI.
THEY WERE PROBABLY SLOW TO ACT BECAUSE JARED FOGLE IS
THOUGHT TO HAVE BROUGHT IN AT LEAST FIFTY PERCENT TO TWO
THIRDS OF THEIR NEW SALES AFTER HE ADMITTED THAT HE LOST A BUNCH
OF WEIGHT EATING THEIR
SANDWICHES.
KEEP IN MIND THAT JARED FOGLE HAS NOT BEEN CHARGED WITH
ANYTHING YET.
>> ALLEGEDLY THIS IS HEARSAY, BUT FROM A SURVIVOR STANDPOINT
IS DISTURBING.
THIS IS KEY SIGNS OF PEDOPHILIA AT ITS BEST.
THERE IS A CLEAR MENTAL ILLNESS IN THE WAY THAT HE IS
APPROACHING HIS FAME, HIS POWER, AND THE WAY HE IS USING IT ON
THIS LITTLE GIRL.
FOR HIM TO SAY LET'S HAVE SEX, LET'S JOIN
IN YOUR COUSIN, I WANT TO WATCH YOU HAVE SEX, THERE ARE SO MANY
DIFFERENT THINGS HERE AND IT IS
PRETTY SAD AND DISGUSTING.
IF THIS IS TRUE, I HOPE THEY THROW THE BOOK AT HIM.
>> WE DO NOT KNOW THE AGE OR THE IDENTITY OF THE FRANCHISEE, SO
SHE COULD BE IN HER 30S, AND IT
COULD BE TOTALLY FINE.
WHATEVER SEXUAL THING THEY GET INVOLVED
IN IS TOTALLY OKAY, AS LONG AS THERE ARE NO MINORS INVOLVED AND
YOU ARE NOT PAYING FOR SEX.
IN THIS CASE, IT SEEMS AS
THOUGH HE PAID FOR SEX WITH A SIXTEEN-YEAR-OLD, WHICH IS WHY
THE FBI IS SUBPOENAING THE TEXT MESSAGES.
>> THE REAL ISSUE FOR ME IS THE TIMELINE.
ALLEGEDLY SHE HAD
SIT-DOWN MEETINGS WITH SUBWAY EXECUTIVES IN 2008, AND THAT
KIND OF THE BOGGLES THE MIND, THAT WE ARE TALKING ABOUT THIS
RIGHT NOW, AND THAT IT TOOK THIS LONG FOR IT TO COME TO LIFE.
WHO KNOWS WHAT OTHER KINDS OF INDISCRETIONS OR ABUSES THAT
HAVE GONE ON IN THE INTERIM.
THAT IS DISTURBING, THESE THINGS
HAVE TO BE DEALT WITH
IMMEDIATELY.
FOR A CORPORATION TO, YOU ASSUME, JUST WANT TO
BURY THIS SITUATION.
I WILL NEVER BE ABLE TO SEE "EAT FRESH" AGAIN.
>> THIS IS THE MISOGYNY OF OUR SOCIETY.
MEN ARE IN POWER, AND
WE SEE ALL THESE MEN DOING BAD THINGS.
WE SAW THE SAME THING
WITH BILL COSBY.
WHEN WE GOING TO STAND UP, AND STAND WITH THE
VICTIMS AND SURVIVORS IN THE
MOMENT?
WE CANNOT LET THIS GO ON BECAUSE OF THE BOTTOM LINE.
>> IT IS MONEY.
THE CORPORATION, OF COURSE, IS
TRYING TO COVER THEIR ASSES.
THIS SITUATION WOULD, OF COURSE, HAVE BEEN VERY DIFFICULT FOR
THEM TO DEAL WITH PUBLICLY ñ
>> [VIDEO AND AUDIO DROP] ñ
>> I WOULD ARGUE THAT A GREAT WAY TO MARKET YOUR COMPANY IS BY HANDLING
THESE SITUATIONS AS SOON AS THEY COME UP, AND HANDLING THEM
AGGRESSIVELY.
SO, I FEEL LIKE IF I WERE IN THIS SITUATION AND
I WAS A CEO FOR A MAJOR CORPORATION THAT HAS A
QUESTIONABLE SPOKESPERSON, THE FIRST THING I WOULD DO IS COME
FORWARD AND SAY WE HAVE SEVERED
TIES, THIS PERSON IS BEING INVESTIGATED, AND WE HAVE NO
INTEREST IN BEING INVOLVED WITH
SOMEONE WHO MAY HAVE HAD SEX WITH AN UNDERAGE PERSON.
THEY
INSTEAD DECIDED THAT THEY WOULD BURY IT UNDER THE RUG.
>> THAT IS EVEN CREEPIER, IT IS SNEAKY AND UNDERHANDED.
IF THEY
HAD JUST FACED UP TO IT IN THE BEGINNING, I WOULD HAVE HAD A
MUCH DIFFERENT PUBLIC OPINION ñ
MY OPINION FOR SUBWAY WOULD HAVE BEEN VASTLY DIFFERENT.
>> IT IS A BOYS CLUB.
I DON'T WANT TO ASSUME, I DON'T KNOW WHO
IS IN CHARGE AT SUBWAY, BUT IT SEEMS LIKE IT IS A CONTINUATION
OF THESE MEN WHO ARE PROTECTING
EACH OTHER.
WE DON'T WANT TO HAVE OUR POCKETS BE HURT, WHO
CARES IF A LITTLE GIRL WAS HURT.
I HAVE BEEN PRIVY TO IT A LITTLE BIT, AND IT IS DISGUSTING
WHEN YOU SIT IN THESE ROOMS AND THE THINGS YOU HEAR MEN SAY THEY
WILL COVER UP BECAUSE OF THE BOTTOM LINE, THEIR EGO OR THEIR
PRIDE.
WE DON'T KNOW IF THIS IS THE CASE HERE, BUT IT IS ALL
TOO FAMILIAR.
IN 2008, AN UNDERAGE CHILD CAME FORWARD
AND SAID SOMETHING WAS NOT RIGHT, WHY DIDN'T EVERYONE DROP
EVERYTHING AND SAY THERE IS A BABY INVOLVED, YOU KNOW?
