For almost a decade beginning in the early 2000s, there was no one more recognizable than Subway spokesman Jared Fogle, whose story of overcoming obesity through a diet of Subway sandwiches was an inspiration.

ID's new three-part series, JARED FROM SUBWAY: CATCHING A MONSTER, reveals the shocking, previously untold story of the investigation that exposed the monster insidiously lurking behind Fogle's charming persona and how his true nature as a child sex predator was finally revealed.

INVESTIGATION DISCOVERY PREMIERES

The programs below will premiere on Investigation Discovery as follows:

CALLS FROM THE INSIDE

New Episodes Premiere Tuesdays at 9/8c

It's an iconic line in any crime story: when a suspect is arrested, they get one call. In reality, once a person enters the criminal justice system, they have multiple opportunities to make calls as they await trial. The vast majority of those calls are recorded. An admission, a threat, a slip of the tongue, a bribe: it's all on tape, and the suspect knows it. But this doesn't always stop them from talking. CALLS FROM THE INSIDE uses jailhouse phone calls to frame the narrative of murder investigations steeped in mystery.

· Connections to Murder Premieres Tuesday, February 28 at 9/8c

An unknown killer tortures and murders a couple in January 2011. Then DNA links an unexpected suspect to the crime, and investigators must rely on recorded jailhouse phone calls to gather solid evidence and bring the culprit to justice.
