Josh & Anna Smuggar: A Series of Unfortunate Events

[Jeanne222]

It might be interesting if they ask for anything early. Gives us an idea of what they pondered during the night!

[Lindsay Loo Hoo]

Guys i wont be able to type anymore, im too starstruck by Smuggar to find words.

but JB is there.    I seriously wonder if the jury signalled in some way they were close to a verdict and the judge let everyone know to be there in the morning.  Because sure Josh has to stick close and Anna is glued to his side.   But JB wouldn't be there just to hang around for hours waiting just in case.   

I suppose that could be the case, but just because JB showed up this morning doesn't mean he has to hang around all day. Could be just a show of family support for the cameras.

I can’t believe that with her husband on trial, Anna didn’t buy enough new dresses to wear a different one every day. Missed opportunity!

We need to do something for her constant refreshing skills. Her fingers must be exhausted!

Perhaps we can all pitch in and get her a new router.

But did his flimsy cheap water bottle filled with generic fruit punch flavoring make an appearance? 😂

I'm curious.  What does everyone think about the fact that Meechelle hasn't been there?

I'll be happy to never see the zipper dress and brown shoes again.

I don't know if she is just burying her head in the sand or hiding out. She should be there.

I think they are saving Meechelle for sentencing.

Yeah really. What will she wear when she starts dating? ;)

[MargeGunderson]

Someone on Reddit just described Josh’s face as a glistening glazed ham. I am considering divorcing my husband and marrying that poster.

I'll vote for that along with never seeing the sheer panel cocktail style dress again.  It was bad enough on its own, but the panel part hanging below her coat was worse.

I'm sure with a new baby, six kids and a husband on trial for child pornography Anna has a lot on her mind.

I'm guessing one of the Duggers girls had the responsibility of buying dresses for her and another hair and makeup for court appearances!

They're like a little machine!  Cranking it out!

Lifes busy at the big house!

Normally I'd say Michelle is staying home watching Josh and Anna's kids, but this is Michelle we're talking about.  I'd guess she's holed up in the master bedroom watching Hallmark movies.

I'm of two minds on this one.  I do think Michelle needed to be there especially during the prosecution to her about what her golden child was accessing on the internet and during Bobye Holt's testimony. 

But, someone does need to watch Anna's kids.  I hope that is what she has been doing during  the trial.  If it comes out that Michelle has been popping Xanaxes and retreating to her room all day, then, well, fuck her.

And some Reddit posts are inside jokes for long time followers so it can get confusing. But the Mother is …… take off on the Meeechelle Mother is bleeding is hilarious. Any sign of Meechelle? Are they saving her for the sentencing?

The one that made me do a spit take was "Father is balding" at the speculation that JB is wearing a rug!

[Lindsay Loo Hoo]

Seeing the pic's from this morning.....Josh needs to talk to JimBob about hair pieces. Yikes.

Since when has Michelle watched her own kids, let alone anyone else’s? She’s def popping some pills and laying in a dark room.

[Jeanne222]

Michelle is waiting for Jim Bob to tell her what to do!

The young Duggers are in charge of Anna's kids and maybe one of the older girls has the baby!

[merylinkid]

Meechelle is too zonked out to be able to appear in public except at carefully orchestrated group appearances where people are kept at a distance from her.

Just remember: for every Casey Anthony and OJ Simpson, there's a Scott Peterson and Jeffrey Dahmer.  

And I actually like her brown shoes.  They definitely don't go with the dress, but it's hard to find closed toe & closed heel shoes with a tiny bit of style. 

Isn't Scott Peterson getting an appeal?  I thought I saw that last night because I screamed "what about Duggar" to the TV and my dogs looked at me like I was a crazy lady.

His death sentence is now life. He wasn't found not guilty.

Yep, my dogs need the verdict announced. They are not handling my stress well.

And have her eviscerated for caring more about fashion than her husband?  Paying so many thousands of dollars for legal representation & then going out & blowing more money on dresses? 

I guarantee Josh's lawyers made it crystal clear to Anna exactly how she was to dress and act.  Buy a few things, but not a lot.  And that red dress was a bold enough move, no more.

The image of Duggar JSlaves as little mice singing "we can do it, we can do it, we can help our Cindarelly" popped into my mind.  Ugly brown shoes aside.

But only if the router captures ALL the data and doesn't defraud her.

Yeah, but at least he's been locked up already for 17 years.  That's something.

Please be true!

Oh thank goodness.  I need to work (finished prepping already for ONE hearing).

[absnow54]

GUILTY!

Hannie, Jenny, Jordyn, Cousin Emily, Mackynzie. 

[Lindsay Loo Hoo]

HE'S BEEN FOUND GUILTY!

[JustRosie]

Will Jim Bob allow this verdict??

[merylinkid]

THANK YOU.    

BOTH COUNTS.

Remand into custody to await sentencing?

Awesome news!  I'd just resolved to wait patiently until at least the afternoon! 

[libgirl2]

Wow! I didn't expect it this fast. 

[MargeGunderson]

Oh happy day! Those jurors did the Lord Daniel’s work.

(I almost screamed in my meeting.  It would have been noticeable).

It is a pity the judge would not allow cameras in the court room. I would pay good money to see Josh's expression.

That's what I'm hoping for.  Has he ever spent even one night in the pokey or did he get bail immediately?

[Lindsay Loo Hoo]

My gut feeling, this jury had the decision last night, but didnt wanna look like they rushed it 

[hathorlive]

If the jury has a verdict, it's got to be guilty. I can't see 12 people immediately agreeing he's innocent.
