Popular Post MargeGunderson April 30, 2021 Popular Post Share April 30, 2021 If it’s true that the family knew about the nature of the charges since last year, and they took steps to put properties and such in Anna’s name, yet still allowed Josh around the children, well there is a special place in hell for all of them. 102 Link to comment

Heathen April 30, 2021 Share April 30, 2021 I want to throw up. I just hoped it was something not child-related. I feel so sorry for his children. Even if they ever go non-fundie and have actual educations or jobs, they're still going to be "the pervert's kids." It's not fair to them. 19 Link to comment
LavendarRose April 30, 2021 Share April 30, 2021 I was looking forward to Josh getting charged with some sort of financial or real estate or tax crimes and then involving a bunch of other Duggers, or JB and M at the very least. I could then enjoy the schadenfreude of watching it all play out and all or some of them going down hard. This just makes me sick to my stomach. I will still watch it play out but it will be a hate watch. And I certainly hope that any enablers get caught as well. 23 Link to comment

I hope he gets those max 20 years, he should get life for that! I will NEVER feel sorry for Anna. CPS needs to take those kids, I don't care if it's allowed or not, they need to be elsewhere.

You know they will be sneaking those kids to him!! Damn you Josh!! I hope so. If Josh goes to "live" on one of the other properties, I have no doubt that JB and J'chelle would welcome him back to the TTH any time he wanted to drop by, and Anna would absolutely let him spend as much time at the warehouse as he wanted. They all see this as a Jesus issue with Josh letting "Satan build a fortress in his heart," and nothing more. What he needs is more family, and more praying, and more oversight, not prison.

Kiss my mutt April 30, 2021 Share April 30, 2021 Any mother that fails to protect her children from abuse is complicit and to continue to bring more children into this?

Popular Post AZChristian April 30, 2021 Popular Post Share April 30, 2021 I personally know someone - a "pillar of the community" - in Texas who was charged for child porn. Arrested in August, indicted in September, and still in Federal custody awaiting trial. Having been sexually abused as a child, I have NO sympathy for these people. They should throw them into solitary cells in a dungeon with no natural light, with moldy bread and brackish water. For life. 39 Link to comment
Popular Post Panopticon April 30, 2021 Popular Post Share April 30, 2021 I know a lot of us (including me) jumped to the kiddie porn theory yesterday for obvious reasons, but I’d hoped that wasn’t really it. Damn. This makes that smirking smugshot a billion times worse. I can tolerate a financial criminal smirking at his arrest even as I look forward to his incarceration. But this piece of garbage— whose teenage self got a free pass after he fingered his five-year-old-sister— SMIRKED when he was caught taking part in the exploitation of more children. It’s too much. He’s as bad as bad gets. 25 Link to comment

The feds don’t play around with bail conditions, though. If Josh is released, he’s either going to be on an ankle monitor that will track his location or have a 24-hour third-party custodian to monitor his movements. And keep in mind that this case will get serious press attention and all eyes will be on the Duggars. If he violates his conditions someone will inform the Feds. They’ll revoke his bail (bye-bye JB’s money), he’ll go back to jail and His third-party custodian could then face charges for not monitoring him appropriately. CPS should be monitoring things too, and if Anna sneaks the kids in to see him or let’s him come to the house those kids will be removed from her custody. They won’t be placed with JB and Michelle, either — the best she could hope for is that they’d go to the Kellers or one of Josh’s siblings, who I damn well hope would keep him away so they don’t lose their own kids, That’s what I’m telling myself, at least. 36 Link to comment
