Fogle is expected to be sentenced later today in federal court in Indianapolis. Fogle had agreed to plead guilty to the charges in August. As part of the agreement, prosecutors agreed to ask for no more than 12½ years in prison while the defense agreed not to ask for less than five years. Last Thursday, Fogle’s attorneys and prosecutors filed separate sentencing memorandums, with Fogle’s attorneys asking for the minimum sentence and prosecutors asking for the max. According to the government’s filing, “Fogle went to great lengths to engage in commercial sex acts with underage minors.” It adds that “he continually communicated with the prostituted minors in his attempts to find even younger children for sex. He specified the ages he wanted, including 14 and 15 year olds.” In addition to sex with children, the filing states that “Fogle has paid for commercial sexual activity with adults on hundreds of occasions.” • Want to keep up with the latest crime coverage?

The filing from Fogle’s layers stated that Fogle “is painfully aware of the fact that he has impacted the lives of minor victims, hurt those closest to him, and, for all practical purposes, destroyed the life he worked to build over the last 18 years.” The filing stated that, according to a forensic psychologist, Fogle “suffers from hypersexuality and alcohol abuse/dependence.” It added that the psychiatrist found “weak evidence” of pedophilia, and that Fogle is “very treatable.”
