to his alleged abuse of the minors. after raiding his home, the investigators found porn rafy involving children as young as 6 given to him by the executive director of the charity. prosecutors say taylor now in custody on child pornography charges secretly recorded children and shared the video for years. fogle agreed to pay 14 victims $100,000 each in restitution. he faces a minimum of five years in federal prison. marci gonzalez, abc7 news. jonathan: so how exactly do companies like subway handle a public relations nightmare like fogle's criminal case? coming up we will talk to an expert about the process. let's take a check of the weather. let's do the traffic first. see what is going on with the roadway. jamie, is it moving slowly? jamie: it is. you can get a good idea of the volume and how slow it is. working your way on the outer loop. continuing to virginia. not bad. let's look at the map to see how heavy we are. the left-hand miles per hour. the average that is continuing to the 270 spurt. we stick in the area. bethesda update the water main break. eastbound lane is closed and the westbound is open so you are sharing. wsse said at 5 verz they hope to have everything repaired. we'll keep you updated. heading out of the city, you are in the teens. we are slowing to college park. closer to green belt at 6-mile-per-hour. this is going to take you 25 minutes. no crashes recorded. just typical delay. kimberly: thank you. even though it wasn't hot, is it going to rain? steve: showers on the way and the thunderstorms. those who are dining tonight, keep an eye to the sky. most of you will see the showers and the thunderstorms. you find yourself in a heavier downpour and you will wish you were inside. this is the camera. partly cloudy skies. no problems now but showers are on the way and thunderstorms. 91 degrees at the reagan national airport. winds out of the south at 14-mile-per-hour. the feels like is above 90 degrees. satellite and the radar, showers and the thunderstorms. they are confined west of us. inside the capital beltway. it's dry now but it will likely change through the dinner time hour. 68 and 75 for the overnight low. warm and mug by. isolated showers will remain. cold front on the way tomorrow. once it moves through, high pressure is going to build. lower humidity and a nice weekend ahead. 88 degrees for a high tomorrow. the seven-day outlook. 87 on friday. sunshine saturday and sunday with the highs in the middle to the upper 80's. instead of the heat index value, it is going to feel like the middle to the

told you about the criminal case against jared fogle. subway dropped fogle as a spokesman. jonathan: we want to get a perspective on how companies like subway deal with public relations nightmare like this. we're joined by the vice president of the communication group. this is a crisis management 101. >> this is. to be honest, 101 is understating it. i don't think there are too many organizations that have gone through a crisis like this. kimberly: because he was a front man? >> the allegations are so intense. in the last 15 years jared has been the face of the entire corporation. they have a lot of brand investment in this guy. jonathan: what do you do? if you are a company, ceo is out there of the company. you are thinking about a charging guy who represents what his company should be about. weight loss for jared. what do you tell the companies, don't throw your eggs in one basket? how do you approach that? >> that is what you tell them. any corporation should have a stable of spokes people to go through for that one reason. human beings are flawed people. so you can't have evening invested in one individual. kimberly: get down to the nuts and bolts. we have crisis control in washington. you get a call for a client and they say we in deep trouble. you nigh a team where they are and then what? >> the most part this is sitting down. a lot of people think the scandal and they think we sit down and there are things but this is really understanding. people don't often understand the actual facts are of a crisis. if you understand that before you communicate, you will make mistakes. jonathan: subway, so break this down. we know enough of the facts of the doubter of public opinion. this is big-time damage for reputation. what do you the? >> 2-hour news cycle with facebook and the social media, it doesn't work. i look at subway and they are not admitting the situation they are in. the first thing they said is we are breaking our contract with fogle. no comment. kimberly: do you agree with that? >> as a crisis manager that is not my first inclination. for me, i look to say we have to admit to the audience we are in a situation and focused on getting through the situation. in the end you can provide a healthy alternative. jonathan: if you don't jump jared, that is huge. you have to distance yourself from that. kimberly: but maybe you say we are troubled by this. you show -- >> you have to make a situation better. you have to move forward. if you can't move yourself out of a crisis the general public is always going to perceive you in a crisis. jonathan: going forward does it hurt subway? will they be okay? >> time will tell. if you manage a crisis effectively you get through. the effect for the long-term reputation is often minimal. kimberly: do you think they will give money to organizations that fight back against child exploitation? >> i don't think they are there yet. >> thank you. appreciate it. jonathan: still ahead a push to stop the rise of gun violence in d.c. however city leaders want to fight back. kimberly: warning of something you might have in your home. how aquari jonathan: they haven't been used but they are trying to push the vice unit or jump-out squad back in the district. kimberly: this comes as they are trying to tackle a rise in homicides. sam ford has more on how the community wants to fight back against crime. >> the mayor and the chief were at the kennedy rec center today. this is their third public appearance in this week on behalf of crime issues. this comes as violence continues to rage across the city. d.c. increased the reward to pay for kids to get the guns off the street from $1,000 to $2,500. homicides in the city at 97 so far this year. 35% higher than at this time a year ago. the chief announced the murder of melvin williams july 28 in southeast has been solved with the arrest of 26-year-old derek carter today. the mayor talked about how yesterday's shooting of a young mother fontenell affected her as she visited the neighborhood. >> it was among the saddest experiences of my life. after that press briefing to walk around and talk to neighbors about what they are dealing with day in and day out. >> chief lanier has been criticized by the union for getting rid of the vice unit that some call the jump-out squad. today at the news conference she said you don't fight crime. today as you did in the 1980's and 1990's. she insisted the new program, they are going after the organizations rather than the individuals and she says they are confiscating guns. so far,944 this year. reporting live from northwest washington, sam ford, abc7 news. jonathan: all right. thank you. it's not just the chief, not just the mayor but the d.c. police union calling for immediate steps to reduce violence in the city. kimberly: you heard sam talking about the proposal that involves the return of the district vice unit. joining us is the treasureer from the d.c. union. this is like fighting crime in the 1980's and 1990's? >> not quite. we want to bring it back to how it was previously. what we have seen since then is the proliferation in gambling-related violence, drug-related and gun-related violence. that is what the vice units are tasked to do. the fact they are not in the street for proactive enforcement creates a vacuum. guys are out there with the reckless abandon. it's unchecked. we think bringing the people back would be immediate action that we could take that would sort of put pressure on what is going on in the street. jonathan: so the community is angry and frustrated. and at some level scared. this is a violent time. the police officers are in the same boat but they need to be directed where to go, to be the best resource to fight this stuff. gregg: we are short in patrols. we have manpower issues. patrol officer driving around in a marked police car, they have the hands full. the idea to go out and do the proactive enforcement in the most deadly neighborhoods, they don't have time for that. kimberly: what is your understanding why vice units were cut? >> gregg: we are not sure about that. kimberly: money? gregg: i don't think it was money. i was probably the posture of how they want to police the city. it's knee-jerk to take the unit out of the area because we don't have replacement for the enforcement. jonathan: does the union have an initiative built in we have an idea how to combat the violence this are you sitting down with the mayor and the city leaders? >> we are trying do that. we meet with the chief once a week. it doesn't seem like anybody wants to find out about vice to the operations. kimberly: what are you hearing about what they want to do. >> they agree that bringing the vice units back could have an impact. kimberly: other than that? >> manpower. they are all short. the other problem is most are in the fixed post. go to the intersection and not to move from there. you are not able to use -- these are well-train officers. they are not able to use it to investigate the crime they know afoot. jonathan: being with the union you are a sounding board for what the officers are feeling. some are the stop-gap measures and they are gimmicky. they are great if you have the manpower to supplement the regular systems. we don't have the manpower so putting it out there doesn't do us any good. kimberly: all hands on deck begins next week. will it make advenes? >> i don't think so. not at all. we have been opposed to that strategy for a long time. we don't think it's effective. jonathan: what is the best fix? gregg: we have a laundry list of fixes for the police department but a lot of them are long-term. we have to get a handle on the homicides. we have had 99 this morning. jonathan: people want something now. >> that is why we are coming one vice. sending 10 to 12 units to each district will help. kimberly: dozens of people forced from the home after a fire ripped through an apartment building in wood bridge. this started around 2:30 in the morning. heavy smoke sent people outside for hours. several departments were damaged. firefighters believe it was caused by someone cooking at the early hour. jonathan: let's get to the weather. we saw sun and clouds. only thing we didn't see was rain. kimberly: but we might see some tonight. meteorologist steve rudin has the forecast. frau mentioned maybe downpours? steve: we might see that earlier. we are going outside to the belle haven country club. a lot of folks going to the beltway. nothing around alexandria. head off to the north and west of us. this is an isolated area. this is what we have with the temperatures. a hot afternoon. 91 degrees at reagan international. 83 in culpepper. nighttime lows range from the upper 60's to the middle 20's. otherwise it is warm and muggy. isolated showers will remain. i don't think it's much of a problem. this is the cold front that is going to move through. a map that switches over. we will show you update on the tropical storm danny. that storm will continue to intensify as it moves off toward the west. more on that coming up in a bit. back to you. kimberly: thank you. fast moving wildfire in chelan, washington, is threatening more homes and the national guard is stepping in to help with the situation. troops digging fire lines as the

information at school. what is your school doing to keep y jonathan: college students turn over a lot of information when they go to college. kimberly: we look at how the academic institutions will secure the information. is that from the federal government to detailers, data breaches are more prevalent in the last few years. the academic institutions are not immune. >> if you think of college campus, they are rich with the day the. people coming to school for the first time. registering for the class. the information they give the institution, it's valuable data. >> michael says the frequent information exchange plus medical research and the other contracts can make the institution a target. some are only catching up to the idea. >> they may not be aware of the data they have. this starts on organization to look at the data on the campus, what are the crown jewels of the data, what are we doing to protect it? >> as students head back to campus, it's on the individuals to not only protect themselves but the institution's network. >> this starts at a basic level of every user accessing the network. software patches, the strong password, the multifactor authentication, which is in addition to a password. that should be implemented in every college campus. >> parents at home can help keeping the lines of communication open to make the students aware of any issue to a bank or insurance company or anywhere else the family does business. remind the students to check the credit card, the credit report and the bank accounts regularly for signs of fraud. in washington.
