An informant and journalist investigated Jared Fogle for over 10 years.
An alleged informant against Subway spokesperson Jared Fogle gave her first public interview on Thursday, telling ABC News the entire investigation took 10 years, including four years wearing a wire for the FBI.
“That was my biggest question, ‘Why was it taking so long?’” journalist Rochelle Herman-Walrond told ABC affiliate WWSB. “A case of this size just happens to take that long, and that’s what I was told.”
Herman-Walround previously said she approached authorities after Fogle repeatedly told her “middle school girls are hot.”
Herman-Walrond said she believes Fogle’s total number of victims is greater than the 14 he was charged with exploiting, as the disgraced talent told her about the relations with minors in the United States, international tours and in Thailand.
Asked what Jared Fogle is to her, Herman Walrond said, “Is a monster. He’s a monster.”
