  1. Good summation…Washington Post ran this in their “Religion” section, which I thought was interesting… Josh Duggar Porn Charges
  2. I have to hand it to Derrick. I never thought he’d get through year one, let alone graduate. Never going to like the guy, but fair’s fair….law school isn’t easy.
  3. I vote for this! Or let’s put him on an asphalt or a roof tarring crew made up of Latinx guys who are half his size, insanely tough, and could kick his ass in thirty seconds flat. Enjoy your rich White privilege while you can, marshmallow guy.
  4. Let’s do both! Jeremy, there are some famous beltless slacks, very much favored by old retired white men, called Sansabelts. They are frequently worn with pink polo shirts, white patent loafers and a capacious beer gut. Is that really the look you’re going for here?
  5. She’s a woman who has been given authority over every aspect of his life right now. He’s going to hate any woman in that position. Or any man, for that matter.
  6. To quote that great 20th century philosopher and poet Mr. T, I pity the fools.
  7. Thank you. Now if you’ll excuse me, I have to find my eyeballs as they have rolled entirely out of my head and have escaped the building.
  8. Or it’ll go the other direction and everyone on the jury will be heartily sick of the Duggars and their arrogance and be happy to watch the mighty fall. In reality, jurors are chosen to avoid both of these scenarios, at least theoretically.
  9. I agree...just not having internet access until July will make him BSC. He doesn’t have a job, I doubt very much he has any hobby that isn’t illegal or a probation violation, and he’s in some stranger’s house 24/7. He’s going to have to sit on their sofa, eat junk food and watch basic cable until his trial. Actually, he might be much happier.
  10. They won’t let me look at that without signing into IG apparently, which I refuse to join, so can someone describe? Some comic relief would be good right now…
  11. Just my opinion, but that guy is better looking than Derrick and that doesn’t look like Izzy or the back of Jill’s head. And, of all the adjacents, Derrick is the one least likely to show up for anything Josh or JB related.
  12. Okay here’s one for all of the smart people here...wouldn’t a new phone suddenly pinging out of the Reber house show up somewhere somehow?
  13. Yes. Because there’s absolutely nothing else going on these days. 🙄
  14. This. Also, Anna doesn’t strike me as the furious type with anyone in authority over her. Distraught and hysterical, sure. Furious with JimBob, who’s the difference between a roof over her head and…not? Not so much.
  15. So, BIL, not brothers…that’s a smaller pool. Jeremy’s probably out because of distance and I don’t think he gives smuggar the time of day….too unfashionable. Ben doesn’t seem to be the type…neither does Austin…Derrick hates Josh… and if there are others, I’ve forgotten them completely. That makes more sense…
  16. Does anyone think there’s a tiny possibility that Josh might actually be having an “oh, shit this is serious” moment? He’s been King Turd of Shit Mountain for so long that I have to wonder if he didn’t think his only real concern was Anna and JB and since he’d figured out a workaround for that, he was fine. Worst case scenario…more Jesus jail and a head thump from the elders. NBD. And then the feds showed up…and shit got real. And so did jail.
  17. The adult I feel most sorry for is that poor Mrs. Reaver/Reber. She’s stuck babysitting Josh all day while her husband goes to work or whatever he does to get his halo polished. I can see Josh getting all kinds of kicks pushing her boundaries. I wish Mrs. R would tell her husband that he signed them up for this, he can deal with it and then she and the daughter GTFO until Josh is gone. ETA: IOW, what @merylinkid said!
  18. She may think that violence is part of normal sex. How would she know any differently?
  19. IMO, there are two entities on trial here…Josh…and the Duggar brand. The burden of “proof” for the second is much lower than for the first. The Duggars have skated by for many years by ignoring or hiding anything that reflected poorly on their brand. Their brand is, “our super duper religious life is so special that we can do all of these things that are completely counter to common sense like having a zillion children without real jobs or the ability to really raise them yet because we are soooo Godly and extra-special we’re rich and so very happy and our kids are fabulous.” Short form of their brand: 1) children, lots 2) Christian piety, even more 3) family, happier than anyone else’s. This kicks that brand right in the teeth on every level. TLC managed the first two scandals by restructuring the show to be more focused on the Duggars 2.0. But then they let Michelle and JB weasel back in. I want to believe that child porn is a deal-breaker for all but the most fervent leghumpers and there are now three strikes against “our family is so very very special.” TLC may still air the show, but I would have to think that its audience won’t be there in nearly its former numbers, no matter how this turns out for Josh legally.
  20. If this drags on for that long JB may have to choose between keeping his money versus continuing to pay for Josh’s high-priced lawyers. At some point, my guess he tells Josh to take a plea deal.
  21. I think it’s less about Josh the individual and more about how Josh the eldest son and heir to the throne reflects on JimBob. This hits JB’s ego.
  22. Maybe that’s part of the sick thrill? Walking just along the edge? Or he’s just not that thorough. It’s not like he ever in his life had to make a sustained effort at anything, so I can see him just neglecting a major detail. Or he was creating an alibi. Or he’s just that arrogant and assumed after nothing showed up on Anna’s porn monitoring app that he was safe.
  23. This is exactly how I interpreted it, as well. I think this Carol Twitter person is mistaken as to what the investigator was saying.
