Victims were as young as six years old; plea deal says crimes occurred across several states over five years.
It was also mentioned in the plea deal....

It's also mentioned that Fogle received CP via text message but there's no mention of recovered texts containing CP from Taylor, just that there were allegedly text messages. The recovered texts that are CP are from Victim 13, the New York prostitute. Supposedly she saved all the messages beginning over three years ago and investigators have interviewed her. Her statements during the interview are the basis for victim 14. She said Fogle asked her for somebody younger and that she provided him with another 16 year old girl. Investigators have not interviewed victim 14 so there's no proof other than the statements of victim 13.
There's also a lot of evidence concerning adult prostitutes. Allegedly he asked many of them for younger associates but again the evidence of this primarily he said she said with very little in the way of concrete evidence.
There are other references that Fogle admitted to having sex with 16 year old girls but the age of consent in Indiana is 16 so was it illegal or not? As far as the feds are concerned yes but again the evidence is very thin.
What I think is Taylor was told he would get a better deal if he implicated Fogle and he knew Fogle had a taste for prostitutes and knew where to tell investigators to look for the dirt. Victim 13 just lucked into a big payday and you can be sure investigators told her once convicted Fogle would have to pay her restitution.
You say we don't know all the evidence and you are all right, that evidence can cut good for him or bad for him and we simply don't know. However his lawyer knows, and the fact that Jared has the money to fight and took a plea so soon to me points that he is guilty.
