1
00:00:19,594 --> 00:00:21,077
Good morning, viewers.
2
00:00:21,077 --> 00:00:22,836
We're now live at
the New York City Marathon
3
00:00:22,836 --> 00:00:25,801
where over two and
a half million people
gathered to watch the race.
4
00:00:27,008 --> 00:00:29,353
My goal for this marathon
is simply to finish.
5
00:00:29,353 --> 00:00:30,767
If I can do it,
you can do it.
6
00:00:32,422 --> 00:00:34,939
It was 2010.
7
00:00:34,939 --> 00:00:37,629
I had lost touch with Jared.
8
00:00:37,629 --> 00:00:42,491
He was tired of me
not meeting him in person...
9
00:00:45,353 --> 00:00:49,698
But I never let my guard down
because I was sure...
10
00:00:49,698 --> 00:00:53,043
that Jared Fogle
was an active pedophile.
11
00:00:54,284 --> 00:00:58,560
So the public and my children
were at risk.
12
00:01:03,146 --> 00:01:08,318
I wanted to warn people
so people could
protect their children
13
00:01:08,318 --> 00:01:10,008
You know,
I speak to children
all over the country,
14
00:01:10,008 --> 00:01:12,077
and actually,
all over the world now.
15
00:01:12,077 --> 00:01:17,180
There were times that
I just wanted to shout out
over the airways.
16
00:01:25,698 --> 00:01:27,008
Sorry.
17
00:01:31,422 --> 00:01:33,870
Sorry. I didn't expect that.
18
00:01:39,008 --> 00:01:43,043
I was prevented from talking
by the FBI.
19
00:01:43,043 --> 00:01:45,698
And I couldn't
take it anymore.
20
00:01:50,146 --> 00:01:52,801
At this point, I went
to the local authorities,
21
00:01:52,801 --> 00:01:54,663
the Sarasota
Police Department.
22
00:01:58,767 --> 00:02:00,974
I turned in the FBI...
23
00:02:00,974 --> 00:02:05,594
for not doing their
due diligence
to close this case
24
00:02:05,594 --> 00:02:08,215
with the evidence
that I had provided.
I felt there was enough.
25
00:02:10,249 --> 00:02:12,180
It's kind of a bit
of a crazy move, though,
isn't it?
26
00:02:12,180 --> 00:02:14,180
You taking on the FBI?
27
00:02:14,180 --> 00:02:16,732
Doing the right thing
is important to me.
28
00:02:16,732 --> 00:02:18,939
And that's what I thought
I was doing.
29
00:02:26,732 --> 00:02:28,801
My name is Chris Catanzaro.
30
00:02:30,353 --> 00:02:34,629
I used to be a detective
with the Sarasota City
Police Department.
31
00:02:42,353 --> 00:02:45,594
On May 13th, 2010,
32
00:02:45,594 --> 00:02:48,594
Miss. Rochelle Herman
came in to the station.
33
00:02:50,629 --> 00:02:54,318
I spoke with her
about Jared Fogle.
34
00:02:54,318 --> 00:03:01,043
Her chief concern at that time
was that he was gonna hurt
children, including her own.
35
00:03:01,043 --> 00:03:05,146
And she felt like we needed
to get this guy
off the street.
36
00:03:05,146 --> 00:03:10,043
She had already contacted
the FBI, felt that it wasn't
moving fast enough.
37
00:03:10,043 --> 00:03:15,698
And I think she wanted
an audience to believe her
and do something.
38
00:03:15,698 --> 00:03:21,594
My firsts concern was,
is this a person that's
enamored with a celebrity.
39
00:03:23,111 --> 00:03:26,043
And then she showed us
her evidence.
40
00:03:26,043 --> 00:03:31,146
She had phone recordings,
all kinds of information
in reference to Mr. Fogle.
41
00:04:01,870 --> 00:04:03,249
Don't know?
No.
42
00:04:06,422 --> 00:04:10,249
When I
listened to Rochelle's tapes,
I was shocked.
43
00:04:10,249 --> 00:04:14,387
I genuinely was shocked,
because he comes across
as a clean-cut guy.
44
00:04:14,387 --> 00:04:17,111
But, predators come
in many shapes, forms,
45
00:04:17,111 --> 00:04:21,146
and oftentimes, it can be
people that we have a lot
of respect for.
46
00:04:22,629 --> 00:04:25,905
I was very disturbed.
I was concerned...
47
00:04:25,905 --> 00:04:29,284
that there could be
a possibility that this man
was going to do things.
48
00:04:33,146 --> 00:04:36,146
But because Mr. Fogle lived
out of state,
49
00:04:36,146 --> 00:04:40,111
there'd been, as I knew,
no crime committed
in Sarasota.
50
00:04:40,111 --> 00:04:42,939
So we really couldn't
do any kind of arrest.
51
00:04:44,318 --> 00:04:46,284
But we did
take her seriously...
52
00:04:47,732 --> 00:04:51,077
And I spoke with
Agent Billings at the FBI,
53
00:04:51,077 --> 00:04:55,836
and she did verify that there
was an active investigation
concerning Mr. Fogle.
54
00:04:58,111 --> 00:05:00,422
I was there for several hours.
55
00:05:01,560 --> 00:05:04,043
I told the detectives,
56
00:05:04,043 --> 00:05:06,698
"I'm going to play my tapes
on my radio show."
57
00:05:08,215 --> 00:05:12,974
I was going to reveal
who Jared was,
58
00:05:12,974 --> 00:05:15,387
if they didn't do anything.
59
00:05:17,077 --> 00:05:19,663
I told her,
"Don't do that. That would
not be a good idea."
60
00:05:19,663 --> 00:05:22,560
Broadcasting something
like that can be very harmful
to an investigation.
61
00:05:22,560 --> 00:05:25,629
Number one,
it can scare the suspect off.
62
00:05:25,629 --> 00:05:29,387
And number two,
it could cause
problems for her.
63
00:05:29,387 --> 00:05:32,801
Somebody could come after her
and maybe physically hurt her.
64
00:05:34,491 --> 00:05:38,767
I was frustrated
and incredibly disappointed.
65
00:05:38,767 --> 00:05:43,698
But I agreed not to share
the tapes publicly.
66
00:05:46,284 --> 00:05:50,560
I was allowed to leave
the police station.
67
00:05:50,560 --> 00:05:53,318
And my head is just spinning.
68
00:05:55,456 --> 00:05:57,008
I felt as though...
69
00:05:59,249 --> 00:06:00,801
I am being watched.
70
00:06:03,318 --> 00:06:06,870
My wanting to turn evidence
on the FBI,
71
00:06:06,870 --> 00:06:10,732
was I now someone
to be questioned?
72
00:06:12,801 --> 00:06:14,249
Am I a loose cannon?
73
00:06:14,249 --> 00:06:17,284
Was... I someone
not to be trusted?
74
00:06:17,284 --> 00:06:20,491
Was that a level of paranoia,
or was there truth to that?
75
00:06:21,594 --> 00:06:22,594
I don't know.
76
00:06:28,180 --> 00:06:29,663
One evening I was on the air.
77
00:06:31,905 --> 00:06:36,318
It was about quarter
to eleven or so,
my show was about to end.
78
00:06:36,318 --> 00:06:37,249
And...
79
00:06:39,249 --> 00:06:40,905
There's two guys
bangin' on the door.
80
00:06:43,284 --> 00:06:45,732
They had black suits
with black sunglasses on.
81
00:06:47,043 --> 00:06:48,560
It was right
out of the movies.
82
00:06:48,560 --> 00:06:50,905
It was the 'men in black'.
83
00:06:50,905 --> 00:06:54,353
The FBI,
they show me their badges.
84
00:06:54,353 --> 00:06:56,594
And I said,
"Can I help you guys?"
85
00:06:56,594 --> 00:06:58,801
They said,
"Rochelle Herman, please."
86
00:06:58,801 --> 00:07:00,560
And they're like,
"Who the hell are you?"
87
00:07:00,560 --> 00:07:02,905
I said,
"I'm the station manager."
88
00:07:02,905 --> 00:07:04,870
And I'm on the air
for another 15 minutes.
89
00:07:04,870 --> 00:07:08,043
"Thank you, we'll be back."
And they turned and walked
in unison.
90
00:07:08,043 --> 00:07:10,491
It was bizarre. I'd never
seen anything like that.
91
00:07:12,560 --> 00:07:15,836
So we wrapped up
and zoomed across the street,
92
00:07:15,836 --> 00:07:18,318
and we watched from a bar.
93
00:07:18,318 --> 00:07:20,870
They were up there
for almost two hours.
94
00:07:20,870 --> 00:07:23,353
They took computers,
they took boxes,
95
00:07:23,353 --> 00:07:26,387
they took stacks
of printed out emails
and texts.
96
00:07:26,387 --> 00:07:27,905
And they took
a lot of stuff.
97
00:07:29,008 --> 00:07:34,077
The FBI,
they raided the radio station.
98
00:07:34,077 --> 00:07:40,629
They raided my home
to collect anything that I may
not have turned over.
99
00:07:40,629 --> 00:07:43,456
They knew that I could
tell the public at any moment
100
00:07:43,456 --> 00:07:45,043
about Jared.
101
00:07:46,767 --> 00:07:49,353
The FBI told me
to stay quiet
102
00:07:49,353 --> 00:07:55,077
or I would be charged
with impeding
an on-going investigation.
103
00:07:55,077 --> 00:07:56,663
So I did.
104
00:07:56,663 --> 00:07:59,077
I had to step back.
I had to become a ghost.
105
00:08:11,594 --> 00:08:15,594
The toll that working
undercover for the FBI...
106
00:08:15,594 --> 00:08:18,663
had on my health
was astronomical.
107
00:08:20,456 --> 00:08:24,491
The PTSD that I have
experienced because of this,
108
00:08:24,491 --> 00:08:26,387
um, has been debilitating.
109
00:08:28,353 --> 00:08:31,629
I truly believe that...
110
00:08:31,629 --> 00:08:36,456
when someone undergoes
such a stressful situation
for so many years,
111
00:08:36,456 --> 00:08:39,353
it makes you susceptible
to other things.
112
00:08:41,836 --> 00:08:45,836
In the fall of 2012,
113
00:08:45,836 --> 00:08:49,560
I was diagnosed with
reflex sympathetic dystrophy,
114
00:08:49,560 --> 00:08:52,422
known as suicide disease,
115
00:08:52,422 --> 00:08:57,905
because it is the most
painful chronic disease
known to man.
116
00:09:00,422 --> 00:09:05,663
I was on incredible
amounts of painkillers...
117
00:09:07,560 --> 00:09:09,215
...and medications.
118
00:09:11,111 --> 00:09:13,905
My entire life changed.
119
00:09:13,905 --> 00:09:15,594
It cost me my career.
120
00:09:17,594 --> 00:09:20,767
I felt bad for Rochelle
because she's
a beautiful person.
121
00:09:20,767 --> 00:09:22,353
And she was
in pretty bad shape.
122
00:09:24,663 --> 00:09:27,836
Seeing what she became,
it was hard.
123
00:09:27,836 --> 00:09:31,043
The pain
and all the stress,
124
00:09:31,043 --> 00:09:32,422
and everything
that's happened,
125
00:09:32,422 --> 00:09:34,732
she's completely different
from who she was.
126
00:09:37,732 --> 00:09:39,732
It was a struggle
every day.
127
00:09:39,732 --> 00:09:44,111
And I see Jared...
living a wonderful life.
128
00:09:47,456 --> 00:09:50,111
- And he just got married. Congratulations.
- Thank you very much.
129
00:09:50,111 --> 00:09:53,146
Yeah, it's been great so far.
My first trip back on the road
after being married.
130
00:09:53,146 --> 00:09:54,318
So, that's awesome.
131
00:09:54,318 --> 00:09:57,663
Jared was married
to Katie McLaughlin.
132
00:09:57,663 --> 00:09:59,767
She seemed very nice,
very sweet.
133
00:09:59,767 --> 00:10:04,077
From the outside, to me,
their relationship
was simple.
134
00:10:04,077 --> 00:10:08,663
Katie was very much
the housewife,
taking care of the kids.
135
00:10:08,663 --> 00:10:11,525
Jared was out
making the money.
136
00:10:11,525 --> 00:10:13,905
This holiday season,
Subway is celebrating you!
137
00:10:13,905 --> 00:10:16,491
Customer appreciation
is back!
138
00:10:16,491 --> 00:10:21,077
But 2013, Jared had
made about 300 commercials,
139
00:10:21,077 --> 00:10:23,732
and was worth
15 million dollars.
140
00:10:23,732 --> 00:10:26,146
Jared, Jared,
I am your biggest fan.
141
00:10:26,146 --> 00:10:28,939
- You know, you're more
handsome in person.
- Thank you.
142
00:10:28,939 --> 00:10:31,387
Ever since the Prince
of Jared commercial,
143
00:10:31,387 --> 00:10:35,974
I have followed
everything that he has done
ever since.
144
00:10:35,974 --> 00:10:37,353
How are you, buddy?
145
00:10:37,353 --> 00:10:39,594
I was very happy for him.
146
00:10:39,594 --> 00:10:42,008
He seemed very humble,
147
00:10:42,008 --> 00:10:45,387
he didn't seem like
he thought he was better
than anybody else.
148
00:10:45,387 --> 00:10:47,387
He treated everybody
with respect.
149
00:10:47,387 --> 00:10:49,249
...how are you?
150
00:10:49,249 --> 00:10:52,491
He was just, uh,
just a nice guy.
151
00:10:52,491 --> 00:10:55,732
- Over 200 pounds...
- ...for 15 years...
152
00:10:55,732 --> 00:10:57,905
- Bravo!
- Take a bow, Jared.
153
00:11:12,008 --> 00:11:13,732
My name's Chuck Cohen.
154
00:11:15,284 --> 00:11:17,732
I was a Captain at
the Indiana State Police.
155
00:11:20,215 --> 00:11:23,111
In mid to late 2014,
I received a phone call from
156
00:11:23,111 --> 00:11:24,905
an Indiana State
Trooper that I knew.
157
00:11:24,905 --> 00:11:29,249
He said that he had a friend
who had been in communication
158
00:11:29,249 --> 00:11:32,698
with a man sending images
that depicted bestiality.
159
00:11:34,215 --> 00:11:38,974
I made the decision to ask
a investigator to get
more information.
160
00:11:42,387 --> 00:11:46,387
Investigators uncovered
electronic communication
about sexual contact
161
00:11:46,387 --> 00:11:47,870
with an animal.
162
00:11:51,594 --> 00:11:53,491
At the time in Indiana,
163
00:11:53,491 --> 00:11:58,043
the possession of images
and videos that depict
bestiality is not a crime.
164
00:11:58,043 --> 00:12:00,767
But the actual
act of bestiality,
that would be unlawful.
165
00:12:03,939 --> 00:12:06,629
Investigators determine
that the electronic communication...
166
00:12:08,491 --> 00:12:11,146
...was sent by Russell Taylor.
167
00:12:11,146 --> 00:12:14,663
Russell Taylor at the time
was employed
as executive director
168
00:12:14,663 --> 00:12:19,491
of the Jared Foundation
owned and run by Jared Fogle,
the Subway guy.
169
00:12:27,353 --> 00:12:30,939
Investigators serve
a search warrant
at Russell Taylor's house
170
00:12:30,939 --> 00:12:34,525
to collect evidence associated
with bestiality.
171
00:12:34,525 --> 00:12:39,215
He was living in a,
uh, very nice house
in Central Indiana.
172
00:12:39,215 --> 00:12:46,008
By all external appearances,
he was a very average
upper-middle class person.
173
00:12:46,008 --> 00:12:48,939
Russell Taylor
didn't have any criminal
history whatsoever
174
00:12:48,939 --> 00:12:50,629
that we were aware of.
175
00:12:50,629 --> 00:12:55,215
Investigators did find images
of an adult female
176
00:12:55,215 --> 00:12:57,870
in contact with an animal.
177
00:12:57,870 --> 00:13:01,939
And they identify
the person in the images
as Angie Taylor,
178
00:13:01,939 --> 00:13:03,077
Russell Taylor's wife.
179
00:13:05,836 --> 00:13:09,974
During the course
of the search
of Russell Taylor's house,
180
00:13:09,974 --> 00:13:14,387
investigators inadvertently
discovered... hidden cameras...
181
00:13:17,043 --> 00:13:19,456
...built into things that
look like something else,
like a clock...
182
00:13:21,215 --> 00:13:23,146
...in places like
children's bedrooms.
183
00:13:36,111 --> 00:13:39,594
When he was interviewed
by investigators one of
the things Russell told them
184
00:13:39,594 --> 00:13:42,629
was he placed the cameras
there, um, to prevent theft.,,
185
00:13:44,111 --> 00:13:46,698
But the location
of the cameras
186
00:13:46,698 --> 00:13:49,732
was inconsistent with
what Russell Taylor's said.
187
00:13:49,732 --> 00:13:53,767
They were pointed
towards places that were
intimate to children.
188
00:13:53,767 --> 00:13:58,422
Placed towards beds,
trying to record children
when they were unclothed.
189
00:14:00,974 --> 00:14:02,491
One of the things
investigators found
190
00:14:02,491 --> 00:14:06,180
were videos that
appeared to be produced
by those cameras...
191
00:14:07,698 --> 00:14:09,491
...of children undressed,
192
00:14:09,491 --> 00:14:12,629
of children involved
in some cases, in sex acts.
193
00:14:14,491 --> 00:14:17,422
Investigators see
horrible things.
194
00:14:17,422 --> 00:14:21,560
In my experience,
the videos that stick with me
the most...
195
00:14:21,560 --> 00:14:23,146
are the ones
where I've heard the audio.
196
00:14:25,525 --> 00:14:28,422
It's hearing the fear
in the child's voice.
197
00:14:30,456 --> 00:14:32,077
The only thing that
surpasses that
198
00:14:32,077 --> 00:14:34,456
is the horrors
that the children
themselves experience.
199
00:14:37,525 --> 00:14:40,767
When a child is the victim
of production
of child pornography,
200
00:14:40,767 --> 00:14:43,801
that will follow the child
for their entire life.
201
00:14:46,353 --> 00:14:48,698
After Russell was arrested,
202
00:14:48,698 --> 00:14:51,249
we had to talk to the FBI.
203
00:14:51,249 --> 00:14:57,249
I was a very traumatic...
frozen state.
204
00:14:57,249 --> 00:14:59,974
I couldn't even believe
what was happening to me.
205
00:15:01,663 --> 00:15:04,422
They sat me down
and told me...
206
00:15:04,422 --> 00:15:06,491
that there were cameras
all throughout the house.
207
00:15:08,422 --> 00:15:13,146
They were everywhere.
Russell, he was watching us.
208
00:15:13,146 --> 00:15:15,456
In the shower,
watching us get dressed
in our rooms,
209
00:15:15,456 --> 00:15:16,629
watching us masturbate.
210
00:15:18,560 --> 00:15:20,422
We were being
watched 24/7.
211
00:15:22,284 --> 00:15:25,767
You just feel so dirty
when you find something out
like that. You just...
212
00:15:27,387 --> 00:15:31,353
It's just really hard
to accept that
that even happened.
213
00:15:33,560 --> 00:15:37,111
And the FBI
showed us still images
214
00:15:37,111 --> 00:15:40,043
of just our faces...
215
00:15:40,043 --> 00:15:42,422
The rest of the bodies
were blocked out.
216
00:15:42,422 --> 00:15:46,456
I identified myself,
I identified my sister.
217
00:15:46,456 --> 00:15:50,491
And then I had to identify
some of my...
closest friends.
218
00:15:52,732 --> 00:15:56,905
I think
I was starting to reconcile...
219
00:15:56,905 --> 00:15:59,491
what was really going on.
220
00:15:59,491 --> 00:16:02,767
Everything that ever happened
with Russell...
221
00:16:02,767 --> 00:16:04,594
finally made sense.
222
00:16:16,215 --> 00:16:18,422
When our mom
met Russell Taylor,
223
00:16:18,422 --> 00:16:22,698
I was about ten,
and Christian would have
been about 13.
224
00:16:22,698 --> 00:16:25,249
It looked like
we we all were doing well.
225
00:16:25,249 --> 00:16:30,111
We were going on vacations,
we were moving
on up in the world.
226
00:16:30,111 --> 00:16:33,008
But all of that was a facade,
227
00:16:33,008 --> 00:16:36,387
because our lives really
started to take a turn
for the worst.
228
00:16:39,146 --> 00:16:42,905
Your average teenager
will get in trouble
for drinking underage,
229
00:16:42,905 --> 00:16:45,215
and smoking weed.
230
00:16:45,215 --> 00:16:47,043
But it wasn't
like that for us.
231
00:16:47,043 --> 00:16:52,870
I was being introduced
to all of that
by my mom and Russell.
232
00:16:52,870 --> 00:16:56,629
We're throwing these parties
and it's normal.
233
00:16:56,629 --> 00:16:58,629
They want us to,
they encouraged us to.
234
00:17:03,491 --> 00:17:07,249
You don't know the difference
between what is right
and what is wrong
235
00:17:07,249 --> 00:17:11,353
because a trusted source
who is supposed
to be your parent,
236
00:17:11,353 --> 00:17:13,732
is telling you
that it's okay.
237
00:17:15,180 --> 00:17:18,387
- You know.
- The common
quote in our home was,
238
00:17:18,387 --> 00:17:20,870
"Age is just a number."
239
00:17:20,870 --> 00:17:24,525
As long as
you're mature enough to do it,
you're gonna do it.
240
00:17:24,525 --> 00:17:29,732
I think that was...
the seed that was planted.
241
00:17:29,732 --> 00:17:32,353
And that began
the grooming process for us.
242
00:17:34,663 --> 00:17:37,732
Allowing us
to drink and smoke and party,
243
00:17:37,732 --> 00:17:40,870
made us vulnerable
to talk about...
244
00:17:40,870 --> 00:17:42,594
sexual things.
245
00:17:44,732 --> 00:17:47,284
It didn't even have to be
about you or I.
246
00:17:47,284 --> 00:17:50,318
It was about them.
247
00:17:50,318 --> 00:17:54,560
My mom's attitude
to sexual behavior,
248
00:17:54,560 --> 00:17:56,353
it went from zero
to a hundred.
249
00:17:57,663 --> 00:18:02,111
She would leave the room
after giving Russell oral
and come...
250
00:18:02,111 --> 00:18:05,318
tell me about it.
Like, it was just very open.
251
00:18:07,767 --> 00:18:10,318
I remember
I was 12 at the time,
252
00:18:10,318 --> 00:18:14,422
and Russell was telling me,
"You should be having sex."
253
00:18:14,422 --> 00:18:16,284
You know, "You should be
exploring your body."
254
00:18:16,284 --> 00:18:19,008
And I told him, no.
255
00:18:19,008 --> 00:18:22,767
And he proceeded
to kind of make fun of me
256
00:18:22,767 --> 00:18:24,456
'cause I hadn't
done those things.
257
00:18:26,663 --> 00:18:28,767
One day Russell texted me.
258
00:18:28,767 --> 00:18:32,525
He said, "Hey, I left
something on your bed."
259
00:18:32,525 --> 00:18:35,870
I went up there and...
there was a... dildo!
260
00:18:37,318 --> 00:18:40,318
And the computer
pulled up with porn!
261
00:18:45,008 --> 00:18:47,077
It freaked me out.
262
00:18:47,077 --> 00:18:52,836
He's leaving this for me,
so what am I supposed to do!
263
00:18:52,836 --> 00:18:57,974
I think Russell
was doing all these things
to catch us on camera.
264
00:18:57,974 --> 00:19:00,698
Literally setting up scenes...
265
00:19:02,111 --> 00:19:04,422
...to put into his film.
266
00:19:06,318 --> 00:19:09,491
Russell Taylor is accused of
recording underaged girls
267
00:19:09,491 --> 00:19:12,077
without their knowledge
to produce porn.
268
00:19:12,077 --> 00:19:14,491
Taylor was in
some of the images.
269
00:19:15,939 --> 00:19:19,836
When Russell Taylor
was arrested in 2015,
270
00:19:19,836 --> 00:19:24,594
both Jared Fogle
and Subway Corporation,
uh, released statements.
271
00:19:24,594 --> 00:19:28,249
The statement that Jared Fogle
released was...
272
00:19:28,249 --> 00:19:32,422
"I was shocked to learn
of the disturbing allegations
against Mr. Taylor.
273
00:19:32,422 --> 00:19:36,560
"Affect from immediately
the Jared Foundation severed
all ties with Mr. Taylor."
274
00:19:38,215 --> 00:19:40,525
The statement
from Subway was...
275
00:19:40,525 --> 00:19:43,180
"We don't have any affiliation
with the Foundation
276
00:19:43,180 --> 00:19:46,146
"and we were disgusted
to hear about these claims.
277
00:19:46,146 --> 00:19:51,594
"We're glad Jared took
quick action to severe
all his ties with Mr. Taylor."
278
00:19:51,594 --> 00:19:57,008
I'm sure Subway was very
concerned the day
Russell Taylor was arrested.
279
00:19:57,008 --> 00:20:00,525
And I'm sure somebody
somewhere at Subway
just said...
280
00:20:00,525 --> 00:20:03,801
"God, please,
don't let Jared Fogle
be involved in this."
281
00:20:03,801 --> 00:20:07,249
What an inspiration!
Subway, eat fresh.
282
00:20:10,387 --> 00:20:12,180
Through the course
of the investigation,
283
00:20:12,180 --> 00:20:15,284
investigators found
thousands of text messages.
284
00:20:17,077 --> 00:20:20,629
And also numerous images
and videos of children...
285
00:20:23,560 --> 00:20:25,974
The image was horrible.
286
00:20:25,974 --> 00:20:30,422
Investigators were able
to identify 12 victims.
287
00:20:32,387 --> 00:20:34,698
One of the things
investigators were
able to recover
288
00:20:34,698 --> 00:20:39,111
is Russell Taylor sent
a image of a naked child
289
00:20:39,111 --> 00:20:42,353
to Jared Fogle.
290
00:20:42,353 --> 00:20:46,284
Russell Taylor,
when interviewed
told investigators
291
00:20:46,284 --> 00:20:51,008
Jared Fogle had actually
gone out to dinner
with that child victim.
292
00:20:53,663 --> 00:20:56,594
Jared Fogle had the option
of calling the police.
293
00:20:56,594 --> 00:20:58,836
He could have
told Russell Taylor,
294
00:20:58,836 --> 00:21:01,146
"I don't want this
Don't send anymore."
295
00:21:01,146 --> 00:21:02,318
Or he could've done
what he did.
296
00:21:12,077 --> 00:21:13,801
My name is Steven Debrota.
297
00:21:13,801 --> 00:21:18,077
Back in 2014, I was
an assistant US attorney.
298
00:21:18,077 --> 00:21:22,974
When I saw the text message
that featured a minor he knew
in real life...
299
00:21:22,974 --> 00:21:26,077
...we began the investigation
of Jared Fogle.
300
00:21:26,077 --> 00:21:29,387
If there's one piece
of evidence like that,
there could be more.
301
00:21:31,043 --> 00:21:33,974
Russell Taylor,
when interviewed, claimed
302
00:21:33,974 --> 00:21:36,077
that some,
some of his criminal
behavior was motivated
303
00:21:36,077 --> 00:21:40,732
by a desire to produce
child pornography
for Jared Fogle.
304
00:21:40,732 --> 00:21:43,422
We know
from other communications
that at one point
305
00:21:43,422 --> 00:21:46,767
a thumb drive
and a laptop computer
containing child pornography,
306
00:21:46,767 --> 00:21:48,318
both commercial
and homemade,
307
00:21:48,318 --> 00:21:51,974
was given from Russell Taylor
to Jared Fogle.
308
00:21:51,974 --> 00:21:56,008
So we develop enough
information to get a search
warrant for Jared's home.
309
00:21:58,732 --> 00:22:00,870
So the morning of July 7th...
310
00:22:02,284 --> 00:22:04,525
...investigators met at about
five o'clock in the morning.
311
00:22:06,387 --> 00:22:10,387
Most of the officers
were not aware of the location
they were gonna search.
312
00:22:10,387 --> 00:22:14,767
Our entire goal was to do this
as discreetly as possible
313
00:22:14,767 --> 00:22:17,801
with as little media attention
as possible.
314
00:22:17,801 --> 00:22:19,456
Uh, that was unsuccessful.
315
00:22:21,146 --> 00:22:23,732
Developing story
out of Indiana...
316
00:22:23,732 --> 00:22:29,008
FBI agents raiding the home
of Subway spokesman,
Jared Fogle.
317
00:22:29,008 --> 00:22:31,387
I'm shocked
to say the least.
318
00:22:31,387 --> 00:22:33,456
When I first saw that
something was happening
with Jared.
319
00:22:33,456 --> 00:22:36,008
Over the 25 years
of my career,
320
00:22:36,008 --> 00:22:39,663
there was more
media attention at this than
any other investigation.
321
00:22:39,663 --> 00:22:42,560
You know, people flocked
their cameras from TV.
322
00:22:42,560 --> 00:22:47,180
Our reporters,
our photographers.
It was a classic media circus.
323
00:22:47,180 --> 00:22:51,043
I don't think anyone
understood the full scope
of what was going on.
324
00:22:51,043 --> 00:22:55,353
But when the truth came out,
it shocked the nation
to its core.
325
00:23:11,836 --> 00:23:15,215
I received a phone call
from a friend of mine.
326
00:23:15,215 --> 00:23:17,456
"You need to turn
on the news now."
327
00:23:17,456 --> 00:23:19,698
Investigators start
at around 6:30 in the morning.
328
00:23:19,698 --> 00:23:22,836
they went through the home.
In fact, we see a video
of them coming out
329
00:23:22,836 --> 00:23:25,180
with hard drives
and computers.
330
00:23:25,180 --> 00:23:28,525
Jared's house
was being raided.
331
00:23:29,836 --> 00:23:32,905
I was shocked.
Oh, my gosh.
It's actually happening.
332
00:23:34,146 --> 00:23:37,422
I just don't think the FBI
raids people for no reason.
333
00:23:37,422 --> 00:23:41,387
Only thing I ever see
around this home
are happy people
334
00:23:41,387 --> 00:23:43,801
doing their yard, waving.
335
00:23:43,801 --> 00:23:47,077
So I'm shocked
and upset, of course,
and saddened.
336
00:23:47,077 --> 00:23:48,939
The FBI
will only say that
337
00:23:48,939 --> 00:23:51,836
an investigation is taking
place in Zionville.
338
00:23:53,456 --> 00:23:54,698
Jared,
you got anything to say?
339
00:23:56,008 --> 00:23:58,077
We wanna stress that
he is not being arrested.
340
00:23:58,077 --> 00:24:01,767
He has not been charged,
but again, it is an
on-going investigation.
341
00:24:03,284 --> 00:24:05,525
Investigators found digital devices.
342
00:24:05,525 --> 00:24:09,560
Cellphones, USB drives,
several computers.
343
00:24:09,560 --> 00:24:14,043
5.6 terabytes of information
had to be reviewed...
344
00:24:14,043 --> 00:24:16,456
...to see whether or not
there was other evidence
345
00:24:16,456 --> 00:24:17,801
or other crimes
were committed.
346
00:24:19,767 --> 00:24:22,836
That very day
that the news broke,
347
00:24:23,974 --> 00:24:28,698
I contacted our local station, ABC7.
348
00:24:28,698 --> 00:24:32,111
I felt it was important
to get my story out there
349
00:24:32,111 --> 00:24:35,180
and reveal the monster
behind the doors.
350
00:24:38,387 --> 00:24:41,043
I remember my assignment
manager saying,
351
00:24:41,043 --> 00:24:43,215
"Max, I may
have something for you."
352
00:24:43,215 --> 00:24:48,422
And she tells me
about this woman
who tipped off the FBI
353
00:24:48,422 --> 00:24:53,180
on Jared Fogle
and something to do
with child pornography.
354
00:24:53,180 --> 00:24:57,284
And I'm like, okay,
is this just some kook woman
trying to, to get attention.
355
00:24:58,870 --> 00:25:03,836
So, I call Rochelle,
and she tells me her story.
356
00:25:03,836 --> 00:25:07,939
I didn't know whether
to trust this woman.
357
00:25:07,939 --> 00:25:12,456
So I am contacting sources
and I will say,
358
00:25:12,456 --> 00:25:16,491
I felt very comfortable
that she was
telling the truth.
359
00:25:16,491 --> 00:25:20,525
So, we did an interview
with her.
360
00:25:20,525 --> 00:25:25,663
Did he mention to you that
he in fact did have relations
with, with underage children?
361
00:25:25,663 --> 00:25:27,836
Yes, he did. Yes, he did.
362
00:25:27,836 --> 00:25:31,008
Jared Fogle to you is what?
363
00:25:31,008 --> 00:25:32,525
Is a monster.
364
00:25:34,629 --> 00:25:37,387
When Rochelle's news broke,
I didn't believe it at first.
365
00:25:37,387 --> 00:25:39,077
I thought it wasn't true.
366
00:25:39,077 --> 00:25:43,905
Because Jared Fogle
was considered one of the most
trusted people in the country.
367
00:25:43,905 --> 00:25:47,974
In the public's eye
I think people were
still siding with Fogle
368
00:25:47,974 --> 00:25:49,387
and believing
that he'd been duped.
369
00:25:50,767 --> 00:25:52,836
A lot
of cases involving
famous people
370
00:25:52,836 --> 00:25:54,353
don't go the right way.
371
00:25:54,353 --> 00:25:59,111
In his particular case,
he had fame
and he has money.
372
00:25:59,111 --> 00:26:02,939
So, we had the concern
that Fogle was gonna
be one more celebrity
373
00:26:02,939 --> 00:26:04,249
that would get away with it.
374
00:26:06,905 --> 00:26:08,767
Everyone's still waiting
for investigators
375
00:26:08,767 --> 00:26:12,594
to give some comments
about what they may have found
during this investigation.
376
00:26:14,491 --> 00:26:16,560
After the search
of his residence,
377
00:26:16,560 --> 00:26:19,215
we had to
do painstaking analysis
378
00:26:19,215 --> 00:26:21,456
of what digital evidence
was there.
379
00:26:21,456 --> 00:26:26,215
My conclusion was that
Jared Fogle was fully involved
in criminal activity
380
00:26:26,215 --> 00:26:27,629
with Russell Taylor.
381
00:26:27,629 --> 00:26:30,318
My question was,
was I gonna be able
to hold him accountable
382
00:26:30,318 --> 00:26:32,732
for the totality
of what he did.
383
00:26:32,732 --> 00:26:36,629
And that wasn't clear to me
until we saw all of
the text messages that we got
384
00:26:36,629 --> 00:26:38,215
as a result of searching
his house.
385
00:26:39,974 --> 00:26:41,318
The texts showed
386
00:26:41,318 --> 00:26:44,077
Jared Fogle was
very good at maintaining
his double life.
387
00:26:46,801 --> 00:26:51,146
He would travel around
the United States for Subway.
388
00:26:51,146 --> 00:26:53,663
We know he was in Las Vegas,
389
00:26:53,663 --> 00:26:57,560
Florida, and New York City.
390
00:26:57,560 --> 00:27:00,111
But when he's not in public,
391
00:27:00,111 --> 00:27:02,870
when he's by himself
in the hotel room...
392
00:27:04,387 --> 00:27:07,698
Jared Fogle spent
12,000 a year on sex-workers.
393
00:27:14,732 --> 00:27:19,146
Then he would ask
if they had access to any
underage prostituting minors.
394
00:27:25,387 --> 00:27:29,974
He successfully had sex
with prostituting minors
on multiple occasions...
395
00:27:33,387 --> 00:27:36,077
...at the Plaza Hotel,
just off Central Park
396
00:27:36,077 --> 00:27:38,732
and also at the Ritz Carlton
in Manhattan.
397
00:27:43,387 --> 00:27:46,560
The two prostituting minors
in New York were
sixteen years of age,
398
00:27:46,560 --> 00:27:50,836
and we call that, travelling
over a Stateline to engage
in unlawful sex with a minor.
399
00:27:50,836 --> 00:27:53,387
That's a federal crime.
400
00:27:53,387 --> 00:27:58,525
So, at the end of the day
we charged him with
conspiring with Russell Taylor
401
00:27:58,525 --> 00:28:01,836
to distribute and receive
child pornography.
402
00:28:01,836 --> 00:28:05,594
And also,
victimizing prostituted minors
in New York.
403
00:28:07,008 --> 00:28:09,560
Jared Fogle was searched
in July of 2015,
404
00:28:09,560 --> 00:28:12,249
and he was pleading guilty
by August.
405
00:28:12,249 --> 00:28:13,525
The face of Subway
406
00:28:13,525 --> 00:28:15,698
has gone from being famous
to being infamous
407
00:28:15,698 --> 00:28:17,284
for something
much more sinister.
408
00:28:17,284 --> 00:28:21,594
Jared Fogle pleading guilty
to child pornography charges,
409
00:28:21,594 --> 00:28:23,698
and other shocking
sex crimes.
410
00:28:23,698 --> 00:28:27,491
He paid to have sex
with victims that
he knew were kids.
411
00:28:27,491 --> 00:28:29,215
Hey, Jared...
412
00:28:29,215 --> 00:28:33,732
When Jared Fogle
first pleaded guilty,
it sent shock waves.
413
00:28:33,732 --> 00:28:35,422
No one could believe it.
414
00:28:35,422 --> 00:28:38,629
What we were able to determine
was there were 14 victims
415
00:28:38,629 --> 00:28:43,008
and all of them were subjected
to very serious
federal crimes.
416
00:28:45,456 --> 00:28:49,560
The guy on
the radio said, "Big trouble
for Jared from Subway."
417
00:28:49,560 --> 00:28:53,077
And I listened to him,
and I'm like, "Oh, my God.
They got him. They got him."
418
00:28:53,077 --> 00:28:55,077
Let's call this what it is.
419
00:28:55,077 --> 00:28:58,663
This is about using wealth,
status and secrecy
420
00:28:58,663 --> 00:29:01,939
to illegally exploit children.
421
00:29:01,939 --> 00:29:04,180
We were just shocked.
422
00:29:04,180 --> 00:29:09,284
We just couldn't comprehend
that, that this story
was really true.
423
00:29:09,284 --> 00:29:12,491
He had a family,
he had children.
424
00:29:12,491 --> 00:29:15,870
And then to just
throw it away like that,
is just...
425
00:29:15,870 --> 00:29:17,939
It makes me angry
and it makes me sad.
426
00:29:19,456 --> 00:29:21,456
I felt sick to my stomach.
427
00:29:21,456 --> 00:29:24,284
I felt weird about
knowing the guy.
428
00:29:24,284 --> 00:29:25,870
It was just horrible.
429
00:29:25,870 --> 00:29:31,180
And I felt for all
of the victims
and the people involved.
430
00:29:31,180 --> 00:29:33,318
Jared, is there anything
you want to say?
431
00:29:33,318 --> 00:29:36,560
His wife immediately
filed for divorce.
432
00:29:36,560 --> 00:29:39,318
She also asked for custody
of their two children.
433
00:29:39,318 --> 00:29:41,422
And she denounced him
in public.
434
00:29:41,422 --> 00:29:44,698
Breaking news story
regarding former Subway
spokesman, Jared Fogle.
435
00:29:44,698 --> 00:29:46,663
And just moments ago,
Katie McLaughlin
436
00:29:46,663 --> 00:29:48,629
spoke publicly
for the first time ever.
437
00:29:48,629 --> 00:29:50,491
Find out that your husband
438
00:29:50,491 --> 00:29:53,215
and the father
of your children
is a child predator
439
00:29:53,215 --> 00:29:55,180
is devastating.
440
00:29:55,180 --> 00:29:57,663
...were among her claims
that Subway was alerted
441
00:29:57,663 --> 00:30:01,905
at least three times
to Jared's possible
sexual attraction to children
442
00:30:01,905 --> 00:30:03,974
and did nothing about it.
443
00:30:03,974 --> 00:30:07,801
Finding out that
Subway did not act upon
at least one complaint
444
00:30:07,801 --> 00:30:09,939
is beyond comprehension.
445
00:30:09,939 --> 00:30:13,422
Did Subway cover it up?
I don't know.
446
00:30:13,422 --> 00:30:19,043
I think the more logical
reasoning here is that
447
00:30:19,043 --> 00:30:25,663
Subway just did not find
the allegations truthful.
448
00:30:25,663 --> 00:30:29,387
Subway says it found
just one serious complaint
449
00:30:29,387 --> 00:30:31,456
about its former
spokesperson, Jared Fogle.
450
00:30:31,456 --> 00:30:34,525
But it wasn't connected
to any sexual misconduct.
451
00:30:34,525 --> 00:30:37,111
Subway has now closed
it's investigation.
452
00:30:38,180 --> 00:30:40,284
You can't help but wonder,
453
00:30:40,284 --> 00:30:45,111
did Jared Fogle get away
with his crimes for so long
454
00:30:45,111 --> 00:30:47,767
because of his fame?
455
00:30:47,767 --> 00:30:50,284
We may not ever
know the full story.
456
00:30:52,456 --> 00:30:55,249
Today, former Subway
spokesperson, Jared Fogle,
457
00:30:55,249 --> 00:30:58,767
will be sentenced on
federal charges of possession
of child pornography
458
00:30:58,767 --> 00:31:00,387
and having sex
with a minor.
459
00:31:00,387 --> 00:31:04,146
Charges that carry a penalty
between five and fifty years
in federal prison.
460
00:31:05,525 --> 00:31:07,284
A literal media frenzy
is on hand...
461
00:31:07,284 --> 00:31:09,560
awaiting former Subway
spokesman, Jared Fogle.
462
00:31:11,111 --> 00:31:13,560
What do you wanna say to
the families of these victims?
463
00:31:17,422 --> 00:31:21,353
The betrayal of
the public's trust triggered
interest in the case.
464
00:31:21,353 --> 00:31:22,836
As you can see
here behind me,
465
00:31:22,836 --> 00:31:25,111
dozens of photographers,
dozens of reporters out here
466
00:31:25,111 --> 00:31:27,111
speaking about history
as it's being made.
467
00:31:29,043 --> 00:31:31,560
For me,
my goal was to get
a sentence that I thought
468
00:31:31,560 --> 00:31:34,456
was a fair reflection
of what we knew he had done.
469
00:31:35,939 --> 00:31:39,215
The minimum sentence
he could get was five years.
470
00:31:39,215 --> 00:31:42,836
The maximum sentence he could
receive was fifty years.
471
00:31:44,491 --> 00:31:46,353
In the sentencing hearing,
472
00:31:46,353 --> 00:31:49,284
the defendant gets
an opportunity to directly
address the court.
473
00:31:50,698 --> 00:31:53,215
Fogle went on
to tell Judge Prat,
474
00:31:53,215 --> 00:31:56,836
"I went from being raised
with good, solid morals
and values
475
00:31:56,836 --> 00:32:00,905
"to living the life of
deception, lies and complete
self-centeredness.
476
00:32:02,387 --> 00:32:05,594
"I had become dependent
on alcohol, pornography
and prostitutes.
477
00:32:05,594 --> 00:32:08,870
"The victims that
I have harmed as a result
of my decisions
478
00:32:08,870 --> 00:32:12,146
"will carry a huge burden
for the rest of their lives.
479
00:32:12,146 --> 00:32:16,491
"Not a day will go by that
I don't think about them.
480
00:32:16,491 --> 00:32:19,456
"I take full and absolute
responsibility for what
I have done."
481
00:32:20,732 --> 00:32:23,974
Jared's defense attorneys
had him evaluated.
482
00:32:23,974 --> 00:32:27,043
One of the experts
provided a testimony,
483
00:32:27,043 --> 00:32:30,594
uh, that Jared was addicted
to sexual activity.
484
00:32:33,870 --> 00:32:39,974
His attorneys said early on
that he had swapped his food
addiction for sex addiction.
485
00:32:39,974 --> 00:32:42,456
And that he was a good
candidate for treatment.
486
00:32:42,456 --> 00:32:45,043
That he would be able
to beat this and get better.
487
00:32:45,043 --> 00:32:48,043
That seems ludicrous
on its face today.
488
00:32:48,043 --> 00:32:49,732
It seemed ludicrous
at that time.
489
00:32:49,732 --> 00:32:51,594
I think you could have
any number of addictions,
490
00:32:51,594 --> 00:32:56,284
you're not suddenly going
to find someone who's
underage sexually attractive.
491
00:32:56,284 --> 00:33:01,422
The defense had one
of their witnesses saying
it was mild pedophilia.
492
00:33:01,422 --> 00:33:04,215
That his problem primarily
was teenage girls.
493
00:33:05,422 --> 00:33:07,456
But he was,
according to our evidence,
494
00:33:07,456 --> 00:33:12,043
sexually attracted to children
as young as age six,
boys and girls.
495
00:33:13,905 --> 00:33:18,077
Several women around
the United States
came forward and said...
496
00:33:18,077 --> 00:33:21,180
Jared, to bring up the issue
of his sexual attraction
to minors.
497
00:33:25,180 --> 00:33:28,353
One of them, Rochelle Herman,
had a set of recordings
498
00:33:28,353 --> 00:33:30,353
with Jared Fogle
over a period of time.
499
00:34:05,974 --> 00:34:09,043
As far as I'm aware,
there is no evidence
to support
500
00:34:09,043 --> 00:34:14,353
that Jared Fogle ever did any
of the things he discussed
with Rochelle Herman.
501
00:34:14,353 --> 00:34:16,974
But the, uh, existence
of the tapes
502
00:34:16,974 --> 00:34:19,801
showed he had a sexual
interest in minors
503
00:34:19,801 --> 00:34:23,043
and a long-standing
and persistent pattern
of behavior.
504
00:34:24,284 --> 00:34:26,629
It's not a
'one moment of bad judgement',
505
00:34:26,629 --> 00:34:30,008
it's not a small addiction,
it's a major problem.
506
00:34:30,008 --> 00:34:33,663
Rochelle's tapes clearly
had a huge impact
on the judge.
507
00:34:33,663 --> 00:34:35,663
Because when it came
to sentencing,
508
00:34:35,663 --> 00:34:38,767
she went beyond
the prosecutor's
recommendations.
509
00:34:38,767 --> 00:34:41,732
And I can tell you,
that is very rare.
510
00:34:41,732 --> 00:34:44,801
The judge in this case,
federal judge
Tanya Walton Pratt,
511
00:34:44,801 --> 00:34:48,836
sentencing Jared Fogle
to fifteen and a half years
in prison.
512
00:34:48,836 --> 00:34:50,974
He is going to be registered
as a sex offender,
513
00:34:50,974 --> 00:34:53,629
and uh, basically,
being watched the entirety
of his life.
514
00:34:53,629 --> 00:34:54,801
Hey, Jared!
515
00:34:56,836 --> 00:34:59,284
I know that
there are guidelines.
516
00:34:59,284 --> 00:35:03,870
And I know that the judge
took everything
into consideration...
517
00:35:05,215 --> 00:35:07,939
But there's fourteen victims!
518
00:35:07,939 --> 00:35:11,008
How is fifteen years enough?
519
00:35:12,629 --> 00:35:15,043
Now, looking back on it,
520
00:35:16,491 --> 00:35:19,594
it makes me angry.
521
00:35:19,594 --> 00:35:22,629
Jared was just
completely complicit
522
00:35:22,629 --> 00:35:25,974
in the videos that were
being taken of us
523
00:35:25,974 --> 00:35:27,387
in our most
vulnerable moments.
524
00:35:28,698 --> 00:35:30,594
He was the puppet master
525
00:35:30,594 --> 00:35:34,422
and Russell was kind of
just his puppet.
526
00:35:34,422 --> 00:35:38,870
I think Jared Fogle
was wired to be sexually
attracted to children.
527
00:35:38,870 --> 00:35:43,111
And his situation
was made worse when
he met Russell Taylor.
528
00:35:43,111 --> 00:35:46,456
They become this toxic
combination together.
529
00:35:46,456 --> 00:35:48,560
Russell Taylor
is paying the price
530
00:35:48,560 --> 00:35:51,801
for victimizing children
he secretly videotaped
in the nude.
531
00:35:51,801 --> 00:35:55,111
The federal crime
will cost him more
than two decades in prison.
532
00:35:55,111 --> 00:35:59,353
It was his cooperation that
allowed them to arrest
and charge Jared Fogle.
533
00:36:06,353 --> 00:36:08,939
So many terrible
memories in that house.
534
00:36:10,525 --> 00:36:13,146
It looks
like a family home.
535
00:36:13,146 --> 00:36:16,525
- But, really,
it was toxic. Evil.
- Yeah.
536
00:36:18,146 --> 00:36:20,939
It's kind of hard to believe
we lived in there
537
00:36:20,939 --> 00:36:24,008
and all those things
happened inside.
538
00:36:24,008 --> 00:36:26,974
I don't feel trapped
in there anymore.
539
00:36:26,974 --> 00:36:31,249
But this house robbed me
of my childhood.
540
00:36:36,215 --> 00:36:40,387
Russell Taylor,
to me, is now a monster.
541
00:36:40,387 --> 00:36:43,974
But I think my mom, Angela,
was just as dangerous.
542
00:36:43,974 --> 00:36:46,422
as Russell and Jared,
if not more.
543
00:36:50,387 --> 00:36:54,284
We got a call
from the FBI IN 2020.
544
00:36:54,284 --> 00:36:56,146
The case was being reopened.
545
00:36:59,043 --> 00:37:01,767
The FBI had this new evidence.
546
00:37:01,767 --> 00:37:03,594
They said we're going
to show you things
about your mom
547
00:37:03,594 --> 00:37:04,801
that you've never seen before.
548
00:37:07,456 --> 00:37:12,698
And they showed us text
messages and text messages
and text messages
549
00:37:12,698 --> 00:37:16,732
of our mom talking
about wanting to have sex
with us.
550
00:37:16,732 --> 00:37:19,939
Wanting to let Russell
have sex with us.
551
00:37:21,180 --> 00:37:25,215
She was watching us live
on these cameras.
552
00:37:29,111 --> 00:37:30,491
I'm sorry.
553
00:37:34,008 --> 00:37:36,180
You just feel so unloved.
554
00:37:36,180 --> 00:37:37,663
Just how...
555
00:37:39,939 --> 00:37:44,525
...someone who...
is supposed to love you
and protect you...
556
00:37:44,525 --> 00:37:46,284
Supposed to be your mom...
557
00:37:46,284 --> 00:37:48,249
is...
558
00:37:48,249 --> 00:37:49,491
dangerous.
559
00:37:51,767 --> 00:37:56,663
We were asked to
testify against her.
560
00:37:56,663 --> 00:38:01,387
And I wanted to tell the world
what she had done
561
00:38:01,387 --> 00:38:06,008
because she stole so much
of my childhood
away from me.
562
00:38:06,008 --> 00:38:09,905
I felt, you exposed me,
I'm going to expose you.
563
00:38:11,560 --> 00:38:15,077
Russell Taylor's former wife
was charged with sex crimes.
564
00:38:15,077 --> 00:38:19,767
And in 2021, she was convicted
after jury trial.
565
00:38:19,767 --> 00:38:23,491
Judge Pratt's
sentence for Taylor's former
wife, Angela Baldwin
566
00:38:23,491 --> 00:38:24,974
was 33 years.
567
00:38:24,974 --> 00:38:29,146
She molested her own relatives
and was gleeful about it.
568
00:38:29,146 --> 00:38:30,801
This was someone
who chose to do this,
569
00:38:30,801 --> 00:38:32,353
this was someone
who wanted to do this.
570
00:38:32,353 --> 00:38:35,146
And it's this horrific
exploitation of children
571
00:38:35,146 --> 00:38:36,180
who should be
able to trust you.
572
00:38:41,284 --> 00:38:43,801
I've asked
myself many times...
573
00:38:45,387 --> 00:38:48,284
why would our mom
do this to her children?
574
00:38:49,525 --> 00:38:52,043
I would label her as... evil.
575
00:38:53,905 --> 00:38:55,974
She just was not a good mom.
576
00:38:55,974 --> 00:38:57,491
She just was not
a good mother.
577
00:38:59,456 --> 00:39:02,698
I would definitely say,
having a child...
578
00:39:02,698 --> 00:39:04,284
has changed my life.
579
00:39:06,767 --> 00:39:10,077
I've never loved somebody
so much.
580
00:39:10,077 --> 00:39:14,353
I just want to give
my daughter...
what I didn't have.
581
00:39:16,008 --> 00:39:19,387
I feel like
our entire lives we've really
just been surviving.
582
00:39:20,767 --> 00:39:23,284
I didn't see the light
at the end of the tunnel.
583
00:39:23,284 --> 00:39:27,284
And now I can finally
see that light.
584
00:39:29,180 --> 00:39:34,456
I can finally get a little bit
of the taste
585
00:39:34,456 --> 00:39:37,698
of freedom
and happiness.
586
00:39:37,698 --> 00:39:40,732
And it tastes so good.
587
00:39:40,732 --> 00:39:42,008
It really does.
588
00:39:50,836 --> 00:39:52,698
Although we've never
met Rochelle,
589
00:39:52,698 --> 00:39:56,215
I'm definitely thankful for
the part that she's played
590
00:39:56,215 --> 00:40:00,043
because we didn't have
the power to speak up
for ourselves.
591
00:40:01,491 --> 00:40:04,180
I would never be able
to live my life knowing
592
00:40:04,180 --> 00:40:06,077
that I stood down.
593
00:40:06,077 --> 00:40:09,422
I needed to help
save these children.
594
00:40:09,422 --> 00:40:11,111
And I would do it
all over again.
595
00:40:13,215 --> 00:40:16,387
But I do regret how...
596
00:40:16,387 --> 00:40:20,318
it tore my relationship
with my children apart.
597
00:40:22,422 --> 00:40:24,077
My sister, Angela,
598
00:40:24,077 --> 00:40:26,560
struggles a lot with the same
things that I do.
599
00:40:26,560 --> 00:40:28,353
Like anxiety and...
600
00:40:28,353 --> 00:40:31,043
I think she also,
like has heavy depression.
601
00:40:31,043 --> 00:40:34,077
But she wants to
get her life on track again.
602
00:40:35,870 --> 00:40:37,939
The whole thing
with Jared Fogle,
603
00:40:37,939 --> 00:40:42,974
it's definitely strained,
like, my relationship
with my sister...
604
00:40:42,974 --> 00:40:44,663
and my mother.
605
00:40:46,353 --> 00:40:50,146
Around four or five years ago,
I moved to Taiwan.
606
00:40:50,146 --> 00:40:51,767
And I've never gone
back to America.
607
00:40:53,284 --> 00:40:55,180
There's a lot of reasons why.
608
00:40:55,180 --> 00:40:57,939
There's been a lot
that's happened.
609
00:40:57,939 --> 00:41:00,801
I'm, I'm not sure,
like, what I should say,
to be honest.
610
00:41:03,732 --> 00:41:06,318
But, I'm very proud
of my mother.
611
00:41:06,318 --> 00:41:08,594
She did do something heroic.
612
00:41:08,594 --> 00:41:11,767
And she... It was selfless,
'cause she lost a lot
in the process.
613
00:41:16,077 --> 00:41:19,387
I'm not the same person
I used to be.
614
00:41:19,387 --> 00:41:25,284
But, I will not allow
this experience with Jared
to define my life.
615
00:41:26,870 --> 00:41:31,215
If I ever have the opportunity
to talk to those
fourteen victims,
616
00:41:31,215 --> 00:41:32,732
I would share it with them.
617
00:41:34,249 --> 00:41:37,560
Do not give Jared the power
618
00:41:37,560 --> 00:41:41,905
to define
what he did to you
619
00:41:41,905 --> 00:41:45,836
as who you are,
because that's not
who you are.
620
00:41:45,836 --> 00:41:49,456
And love yourself
because you survived.
621
00:41:51,043 --> 00:41:52,732
And I personally...
622
00:41:56,077 --> 00:41:59,456
...thank you for coming
forward to help
stop a monster.
