pedo who has been caught from that family?

There was an incident a while back, but I don't know if it was this guy or another family member. Nice family.


Edit to add: Apparently there was another Duggar who was convicted on similar charges. See comment #4.

If he is thirty one now, he probably would have been one of the younger boys during the shows run (2008-2015). So is the child he molested one of the daughters of one of his older siblings? (Josh, iirc, was already 16 or seventeen when the show began its run).
Makes you wonder if dear old dad may also have been pedo.

And his brother was already in prison then also .

I'm shocked

Joshua, the oldest at 38 is currently in prison until at least 2032. Joseph is the 3rd oldest at 31. The second oldest boy is John-David at 36. He has apparently avoided getting into trouble so far, but you have to wonder about him.

Josh molested at least 4 of his sisters. I'm willing to believe the girls were just victims, but I'd be very suspicious of the rest of the brothers. The youngest son is now 18 and the youngest daughter 17.

Mike Huckabee Voices Support For 'Honest And Open' Duggar Family

Former Arkansas governor and 2016 Republican presidential candidate Mike Huckabee said Friday he supports reality TV family the Duggars amid allegations that their oldest child molested underage girls as a teenager.

"Good people make mistakes and do regrettable and even disgusting things," Huckabee said in a statement about the Duggars, the stars of the TLC show "19 Kids and Counting," which follows their lives as a large, conservative, evangelical Christian family.

"No one needs to defend Josh's actions as a teenager, but the fact that he confessed his sins to those he harmed, sought help, and has gone forward to live a responsible and circumspect life as an adult is testament to his family's authenticity and humility," Huckabee said.

Jaysus, this family is pedophile central.

also has a bunch of kids.

1) Duggar? Gotta be for sex crimes
2) Again?
3) Has he been named to TSF's cabinet yet?
4) Maybe not just sex crimes, it could be fraud, too. These are Republicans we're talking about.

Weren't their parents expecting superior results from the way they raised their 19 kids?

Mom gazing at dad as if he were a god. Corporal punishment.

No physical way for one woman to tend to that many children, laundry, cooking, dishes, homework help, parent-teacher conferences, sports practices, school events, even just grocery shopping! No way she could even supervise them all or monitor their behavior.

They were homeschooled.

not that family specifically. I was highlighting the difference between a family with that many children and a smaller family with the personal interaction of the parents, if they were good parents.

and all the boys had to look at their shoes as they walked past to avoid temptation.

You know, just normal stuff.

Also they all "side hug" to avoid the risk of genitals touching from a normal hug.

if that was my dad, that would have been the end of Mr. Duggar

Produces pedos??

going on here.

…not trans or gay either

I seem to remember the show started losing viewers as it came out that the show was basically a grift for the duggars.

Either he saw his brother diddling the sisters or he was abused by one of the siblings or the parents.

and it gave him and probably most of the other boys in that family a fucked up attitude to sex, consent and women in general.

goddard or godhardt or something like that. He was one freaky, weird dude.

and was never charged.

Both could be true, obviously.

I imagine it's pretty rife in the Quiverful movement and has direct ties to what they believe and how they raise their kids.

They could not do anything. It was an extreme way to raise kids. No TV and no nothing. It was not just teaching them right from wrong. It was mentally suppressing.

When they went swimming the girls had to wear essentially a wetsuit that went to their wrists and ankles with a baggy waterproof dress over it to hide any curves.

The risks of sex permeated every aspect of everything they did.

Sorry folks god does not in any way want you to have 20 kids and this family also used itś fame to further the secret terrible behavior of this family.

These kids need some serious counseling

The parents should rot in hell, they knew and covered up some serious stuff.
