Disgraced former Subway spokesman Jared Fogle pleaded guilty to child pornography and additional sex crime charges on Thursday, getting fifteen-plus years in prison.
Fogle and defense psychiatrist Dr. John Bradford sickened everyone in the court room, when according to Bradford’s testimony, Fogle became “hypersexual” after losing more than 240 pounds while constantly consuming Subway sandwiches.
That’s right, we’re now blaming pedophilia on too much lunch meat.
“Once he lost weight, it seemed as though in a short time he had hypersexuality,” Bradford said during the sentencing, according to the Indianapolis Star. Bradford added that Fogle “battled” an eating disorder throughout his college years, resulting in his decision to slim down via the Subway diet before eventually becoming the face of the company. The psychiatrist confirmed that Fogle experienced “mild or infrequent fantasies about pre-pubertal children,” according to the New York Post, but the ultimate diagnosis was “mild pedophilia.”
The psychiatrist said Fogle also had “mild or infrequent fantasies about pre-pubertal children,” but insisted his diagnosis is “mild pedophilia,” the Indianapolis Star also reported.
As far as Bradford knows, Fogle never molested young children, just teenagers.
