Josh Duggar, Former Reality TV Star, Guilty in Child Pornography Trial

Breitbart News 9 Dec 2021

FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. (AP) — A federal jury in Arkansas on Thursday convicted former reality TV star Josh Duggar of downloading and possessing child pornography.

The jury in Fayetteville, about 140 miles (225 kilometers) northwest of Little Rock, found the 33-year-old Duggar guilty on one count each of receiving and possessing child pornography. He faces up to 20 years in prison and fines of up to $250,000 for each count when he’s sentenced at a later date.

Duggar and his large Arkansas family starred on TLC’s “19 Kids and Counting” until the network canceled the show in 2015 following revelations that he had molested four of his sisters and a babysitter. Authorities began investigating the abuse in 2006 after receiving a tip from a family friend but concluded that the statute of limitations on any possible charges had expired.

Duggar’s parents said he had confessed to the fondling and apologized. Duggar later apologized for a pornography addiction and for cheating on his wife.

My wife watched the show for a period of time, but I couldn't get interested. Nevertheless, any creep convicted of sexually abusing children deserves a public hanging.

Another reason I am glad I don't watch television

Okay, my mistake. I thought he was one of the parents, but he was one of the children.
