KUSA – Former Subway sandwich pitchman Jared Fogle could serve his prison sentence in the Englewood Federal Correctional Institution.
Judge Tanya Walton Pratt recommended the 38-year-old be housed at that specific prison because it has a special sex offender program.
It's a recommendation that's in line with the testimony of a defense-hired psychologist.
Fogle was sentenced to 15 years and 8 months in prison Thursday for possession and distribution of child pornography, and traveling across state lines for commercial sex with a minor.
The Chicago Sun-Times reports that Blagojevich's request may have originated with Scott Fawell, a former chief of staff for incarcerated Illinois Gov. George Ryan who himself served 78 months for his role in Mr. Ryan’s corruption case. In the report, Mr. Fawell said he told Blagojevich to pursue the substance abuse program because it shortened his own stint in prison by 1-1/2 years.
“I didn’t want to do it at first. I said: ‘I’m going to save a little shred of dignity.' But it’s the only game in town. It’s the only way you can get time off,” he told the Sun-Times.

A federal judge sentenced Russell Taylor, who agreed in September to plead guilty to child exploitation and child porn charges and to admit using hidden cameras to produce pornography of 12 children. Taylor also will have lifetime supervision after he serves his sentence.

The minimum sentence under federal law was 15 years. Prosecutors sought a 35-year sentence for the 44-year-old Indianapolis man. His attorneys wanted a sentence ranging from 15 years to nearly 23 years.

Jared Fogle is just barely three months into a nearly 16-year jail sentence for child pornography and having sex with underage prostitutes, and the former Subway spokesperson has already gained 30 pounds, In Touch has exclusively learned.
...
“Jared’s breakfast is usually Frosted Flakes with fruit or oatmeal with cake. He loves ‘cake day’ in the dining hall twice a week and he buys Honey Buns by the box, as well as other pastries, in the commissary on his weekly shopping day,” adds the insider. "He’s been known to eat an entire box of eight at one sitting!”
A federal appeals court upheld Jared Fogle's nearly 16-year prison sentence, saying the former Subway pitchman's attempts to diminish his actions are futile, and rejecting claims that Fogle was improperly sentenced based on his fantasies.
The decision, issued Thursday, comes less than a month after a three-judge panel heard arguments from Fogle's defense attorney and Assistant U.S. Attorney Steve DeBrota in U.S. 7th Circuit Court of Appeals in Chicago.
...
U.S. District Judge Tanya Walton Pratt sentenced Fogle in November to 15 years and eight months in federal prison — a punishment that exceeded both what prosecutors and Fogle's attorneys had recommended under a plea agreement. On appeal, Fogle argued that Pratt abused her discretion and sentenced him for conduct he didn't commit.
During the hearing last month, Fogle's attorney, Ron Elberger, argued that merely fantasizing about a crime is not a crime. DeBrota said Fogle acted on his fantasies, citing several occasions in which he asked adult prostitutes to provide him access to minors.
The appellate judges said they cannot accept Fogle's claim that he was improperly sentenced based on "things he didn't do or fantasies he may have had."
"The district court also appropriate considered the perverse nature and circumstances of the offenses ... alongside ample evidence that Fogle repeatedly sought out and traveled to have sex with minors," 7th Circuit Court Judge Joel Flaum wrote.
...
In the nine-page opinion, Flaum, who called Fogle's arguments "unpersuasive," wrote that he tried to "downplay" his conduct by claiming he did not ask for the pornography, and that he only distributed it once.
A federal judge on Wednesday rejected an effort by Jared Fogle, the former face of Subway sandwiches, to overturn his conviction for traveling to engage in sex with a minor, filed on his behalf by a jailhouse lawyer.
Fellow inmate Frank Pate filed a motion for Fogle, claiming the court lacked jurisdiction over Fogle because of his status as a so-called “sovereign citizen.”
Pate is housed with Fogle at the Englewood Federal Correctional Institution in Littleton, Colo.
...
In a two-page ruling on Wednesday, U.S. District Judge Tanya Pratt rejected Fogle’s challenge.
“If Fogle is now claiming to be ‘sovereign,’ the Seventh Circuit has rejected theories of individual sovereignty, immunity from prosecution, and their ilk,” Pratt wrote. “Regardless of his theory, Fogle’s challenge of this court’s jurisdiction is rejected.”
Watching video'd encounters of sovereign citizens with police is some of the most painful, cringeworthy video I've ever watched. I'm embarrassed for everyone involved, including the cop, who often is nonplused about how to handle the situation.
When hands are put on a person and the shrieking starts, that's when you know things are too far down the rabbit hole.
sovereign citizens are their own kind of silly. They get what they deserve usually. Possibly should be handled even more roughly.

We don't usually physically punish people for being stupid. That's kind of what makes Western culture superior, because deciding who is stupid enough to deserve physical punishment doesn't work out well for those who aren't part of the decision making process.
Anyone who resists should expect escalation. The reasons for resisting shouldn't change how much escalation, imo.
Im a calm guy but watching them makes 'me' want to smack them lol.

Seriously? Cake Day twice a week? Is he in prison or sleep away camp?
I believe the going theme is still that Federal Prisons are pretty easy on sanity and less harsh than state prisons. If you've got to serve a 16 year sentence, do it as a Federal Prisoner. Jared is here for 15 years, 8 months as long as he doesn't get in trouble.

For some reason, this little bit of research made a name pop in my head and I had to look him up.
Alexander Blastos (lots of ads on site) was an inmate at the jail I worked at back then, being held for transfer to a federal prison. He talked big and swaggered like he was a drug kingpin in disguise. His racket? Purchasing a multi-million dollar yacht he never paid for and leveraging that "collateral" into other business deals that eventually fell apart. I still remember him telling me he wanted to hire me to be a hacker (back when I was, at best, suited to troubleshoot dial-up) and he asked me for a handcuff key, like he was gonna bust his own tubby butt out of jail.
Fun times, working in a jail. Fun times. I deliberately avoided reading any inmate files so I wouldn't be biased by them. I had no idea until today what he was in for.

The disgraced former Subway pitchman is angling for a payday from the attorneys and judges who sent him to prison. He has been filing a bunch of different legal motions over the past year, but this latest one really packs a financial punch. Fogle is claiming that federal prosecutors ruined his life when they brought child pornography charges against him. Since he's in prison, he has nothing but time on his hands. This has led to him filing a $57 million lawsuit against the judge and prosecutors who had a part in his sentencing.
Fogle is claiming that he was wrongly charged in his child pornography case. The $57 million he is seeking is three times the amount he claims he lost due to the damage to his reputation and career.
Another prison lawsuit destined to be dismissed.

So he would have made almost $20 million since his arrest, the sandwich business must be really good. I wonder how much he would be getting per sandwich sold?
