ZIONSVILLE, Ind. — Federal authorities raided the home of Subway spokesman Jared Fogle Tuesday morning, FBI sources told FOX59.

State and federal investigators were serving warrants at Fogle’s Indiana home in connection with a child pornography investigation, those sources told the station.

The raid began about 6:30 a.m. Tuesday. An evidence truck could be seen parked in the driveway.

Dig deeper and the head of the Jared Foundation was picked up for kiddie porn a while back. So reason to believe, he may have some with or without his knowledge. Seems like someone is trying to save himself some time in the pokie from being poked from behind.....

Gotta be this.

I really hope he doesn't have any connection to it that he knows about.

Even if he is in no way connected, his job with SubWay is completely berkeleyed.

Just to clarify, the computer seized was one used by the former director of the Jared Foundation.

Everything I've read says that Jared himself isn't that target of the investigation, although every headline I've seen would have you think that Jared was downloading it. Sensationalist misleading headlines at their best.

That's how the news works. Even if it turns out that he has never done anything wrong and has been paying all his neighbors bills he will still end up being Jared with the kiddie porn.

This isn't really related to Jared's current troubles, but I've gotta say that Subway ran way too long with that guy. He never looked very fit or healthy to me (had that "skinny-fat" thing going on), had no special talent as a spokesman, and just generally came across like an awkward weirdo.

Thanks, I put too much thought in to it.

Maybe they'll replace Jared with an awkward short and bald guy, so that I'll be able to relate to their message.

"If you are short and bald, try eating at Subway for some reason."

More bad news, Jared's out of Sharknado 3.

http://www.ew.com/article/2015/07/09/jared-fogle-sharknado-3-cameo-cut

Jared Fogle’s appearance in Sharknado 3: Oh Hell No! has been cut from the film following the FBI’s raid on the Subway spokesman’s house in Indiana on Tuesday. The raid took place two months after Russell Taylor, formerly the head of the Fogle-founded nonprofit the Jared Foundation, was charged by federal prosecutors with the production and possession of child pornography.

Subway drops Jared Fogle amid FBI investigation A spokesman for Syfy, which is broadcasting the horror threequel on July 22, has confirmed to EW that a cameo appearance Fogle had shot for the film would not be seen in the finished cut.

Because most of the people in Sharknado were so morally highbrow.
