INDIANAPOLIS, Nov. 19 (UPI) -- Former Subway pitchman Jared Fogle was sentenced to more than 15 years in prison after pleading guilty to child pornography and sex charges.
Fogle, 38, pleaded guilty to one count each of receipt of child pornography and traveling to engage in illicit sexual conduct with a minor as part of a deal worked out with prosecutors in August. In exchange, Fogle, who became the restaurant's spokesman after he famously lost weight exclusively eating Subway sandwiches, promised not to seek a sentence of less than five years in prison and prosecutors agreed to recommend a sentence of no more than 12 1/2 years.
