FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

16-YEAR-OLD ANALISSA TELLS DR. PHIL HOW HER LIFE HAS BEEN AFFECTED AFTER LEARNING RUSSELL TAYLOR, THE FORMER EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR OF THE JARED FOUNDATION, SECRETLY RECORDED HER WITH HIDDEN CAMERAS WHEN SHE WAS 14

(Hollywood, CA – November 10, 2015) – In a national television exclusive, the first identified victim of the Jared Fogle sex scandal comes forward and speaks out for the first time, only to DR. PHIL. Analissa, now 16, talks about how her life has been impacted since learning Russell Taylor, the former Executive Director of The Jared Foundation, secretly recorded her when she was just 14. After seeing the explosive DR. PHIL episodes two weeks ago that revealed secret audio recordings of the former Subway spokesperson talking about luring and abusing children, Analissa contacted the show because she says she couldn’t remain silent any longer and felt compelled to speak out for the other victims of these shocking and appalling crimes.  The episode airs Thursday, November 12th (check local listings).

In the interview, Analissa says Russell Taylor would often interact with her when she was at his home and claims he would sometimes make inappropriate sexual comments. During the investigation, she and her mother learned that hidden cameras had been placed by Taylor throughout the home, including the bedrooms and bathrooms, where Analissa believes she was secretly recorded. Find out how Analissa claims Taylor manipulated her, the inappropriate comments she says he made and how she now believes he was grooming her to have sex with him when she turned 16, which fortunately never happened. Also, how will Analissa react when given the opportunity by Dr. Phil to return to the scene of the crime?
