Jared: La captura de un depredador

This could have been a powerful 80 minute documentary about Jared Fogle, his life, crimes, capture, and the why of how all this happened. Instead we got nearly an hour of Rochelle Herman, who did a great job helping to catch him, but ultimately her story isn't very interesting. If that entire section was eliminated, this could be much better.

There's also an odd trope where they constantly offer warnings of potentially disturbing language, which every viewer is well aware of at all times. The warnings actually feel like they are trying to sensationalize the horrific nature of the statements Fogle makes.

As others have said better than I will, this could have been a better documentary, a shorter documentary, if edited a bit more. After the second episode, I was wondering why this was entitle "Jared from Subway," instead of "Rochelle Rochelle." She did have a lot of guts turning Jared in, but too much time spent on how it affected her. Maybe a little less of that and more about how Jared was arrested and sentenced by the court, and where he ended up. The actual consequences he faced were covered in about five minutes at the end of the third episode. I would have liked to know more about his circumstances now and when he'll get out.

I agree with the other comments about this story could have been soooo much better, compelling, sensational, etc , if Grandma had stop hogging the story and making it more about her. "I did this", I was there", "he like flirting with me"...blah, blah, blah...smh.

Not making any excuses for what the "monster" did, but its clear that this woman was trying to relive her 15 mins of fame in front of a new set of cameras. I applaud her "mommy sense" for picking up on the small hints Jared was dropping, but the story gets a little over dramatic and drawn out, in my opinion, in how she presented what she was doing in discovering/gathering evidence against Jared.

Just tell us what happened and how this man was put behind bars for his crime(s). Its not about you.

This *could be* such a compelling story and there's plenty of material here, but my God, why does this 60-year old woman still clinging desperately to her 25-year old self have to be so prominently featured in this?

What Jared did was despicable, disgusting, and disgraceful but she's making this into some salacious soap opera that's completely unnecessary to the telling of the story- she's telling this story like it's a tawdry sex scandal, but this is a predator who actively preyed on children. She's not a superhero but she sure wants to sound like one, desperately trying to make this about HER and how SHE felt, how SHE was doing so much, and SHE was a victim; ARE YOU KIDDING ME?

There's real children involved here, and are willing to tell their stories, their lived experiences and trauma. Instead we're subjected to THREE ENTIRE EPISODES of this woman who clearly has a narcissistic need to be seen, especially when she ACTUALLY ADMITS TO SERIOUSLY CONSIDERING AIRING HER EVIDENCE ON THE RADIO! AND THEN, claims to have PTSD, and again HER STRUGGLE is horrible!! I just cannot understand how in the world the show runners actually thought making this debacle focus on Rochelle was the right direction to go. Did they seriously wonder why no one in law enforcement really wanted anything to do with this nonsense? When your entire premise focuses on a clearly unwell woman with some serious issues and sees no problems with contamination of evidence, corrupting evidence, going public with accusations that are nothing but what would be considered entrapment in a court of law, and leave her open to incredibly damaging to her and her property, having absolutely nothing to do with her unreasonable safety fears.

I have incredible sympathy and compassion for these poor victims- that they're even remotely sane at this point is a great credit to those who surrounded them after this travesty came to light. I am only giving 4 stars for their willingness to come forward and be so incredibly courageous.

Everyone else involved in this catastrophe of a project deserves zero stars. There's no way to fast forward past the sheer volume of Rochelle and her ego, so I can't even recommend doing so but just keep in mind when watching that you're going to find yourself rolling your eyes so hard you'll likely have eye strain.

This is gross and upsetting and disgusting, I wish there were more we could do so people like Jared never sees the light of day ever again, but this was all about Rochelle Herman, when she's making these tapes with Jared saying absolutely disgusting things she's like very complicit with him like they were a couple plotting out who to stalk next, I felt her to be going along with this over YEARS! And what exactly did the wife of Russell do to get MORE jail time then Jared? Absolutely disgusting and I pray for the survivors. And why didn't the FBI help more when she went to the local police? And where was her ex husband? Just so many open ended questions.
