Josh Duggar, a one-time reality TV star and anti-LGBT Christian activist, has been charged with downloading child pornography off the internet. In new charging documents released Friday, federal prosecutors allege that the 33-year-old Duggar "used the internet to download child sexual abuse material," some of which features children under the age of 12.

Duggar, who was arrested on Thursday night by federal marshals, has pleaded not guilty to the charges. If found guilty, Duggar faces up to 20 years in prison.According to reporter Marine Glisovic of Arkansas-based news station KATV, Duggar's attorneys during a virtual court appearance requested that charges against their client not be read out loud.

Although Duggar once portrayed himself as a champion of Christian sexual morality, his image has been tainted after he was caught engaging in multiple extramarital affairs and after he admitted molesting his own sisters in their sleep when he was a teenager.

Mike Huckabee will blame his arrest on Satanic liberal cannibals, Antifa, any LGBTQ person, MSNBC, Hillary and Obama in 3... 2... 1...

1. Mike Huchabee could also blame it on the lizard people

[onetexan]

2. Again? Or is this another Duggar kid?

[TexasBushwhacker]

8. It's the same one that molested his sister's and others

My guess is that he was downloading the stuff at work. Maybe if his parents had gotten him a REAL sex offender counseling program as a teenager instead of trying to pray away his perversion, they could have stopped it from progressing.

He owns a used car lot. His wife of 12 years is expecting their 7th child.

[onetexan]

33. Figures. Yea all that religious nonsense isn't going to get him very far. Sadly he abused his own

siblings too.

[NJCher]

34. maybe

a REAL sex offender counseling program as a teenager instead of trying to pray away his perversion

but from the research I've done on pedophiles, it exhibits itself at an early age, such as what you see happened with his sisters.

Pedophiles don't turn into pedophiles at a later age. So for example, a man of 55 who has been married or had numerous serial relationships throughout his life does not suddenly turn into a pedophile. As far as the numbers of people affeted, it is less common in women. With men it's as high as 5 per cent but with women only about 3 per cent.

This suggests to me the cause might be genetic, though the psychologists say they don't really know what causes it.

Whether or not it can be alleviated with counseling, your point is well taken. At least a for-real psychologist or psychiatrist would know to set up a watch system for problems that might be developing. Example: child porn on the computer is almost always a precursor to engaging in some type of pedophilic act. If a family member in the watch system were to notice a lot of time spent on the computer, this could be a tip off that the person is in need of some further counseling.

3. Prepping the Jimmy Swaggert tear ducts

A few years ago a youth pastor admitted engaging in sexual assault a few years before. He got an ovation.

7. Family values

9. Well, that's one way to get on the Republican ballot.

[NewJeffCT]

10. The GOP has a pedophilia problem

Duggar
Gaetz
Nader
Trump
Hastert

[MontanaMama]

20. Don't forget Alan Derschowitz.

Even though he allegedly kept his panties on.

[central scrutinizer]

37. And Rudy

How old did he think Borat’s “daughter” was as he groped for his weenie?

[Grins]

29. "Gym" Jordan...

Mark Foley

Jeffrey Epstein
Missouri Rep. Rick Roeber...

11. I think there is much more perversion in that family than has been discovered.

Everything about them is troubling.

[jmbar2]

12. This is not good for the "19 kids and Counting" brand

[Prof. Toru Tanaka]

16. Oh, they could get a new show going if Duggar is convicted...

"19 years and serving".

[jmbar2]

18. good one!

[Mr. Evil]

22. Ba Da Bing!

[BoringUsername]

40. 😆 Good one! N/t

[BoringUsername]

39. Are they still making that show?

Never watched and never will, but I've heard of it. Those people seem kind of wacky to me to have all those kids.

[Blue Owl]

13. Fuckabee's Druggard

[johnthewoodworker]

14. You know, between Matt Gaetz and Josh Duggar, it goes to show that Republican/Nazis

really respect, and support their guys who like to abuse children. Perhaps your acceptance of sexual abuse of minors helps to identify to Republican/Nazi characteristics.

[Coventina]

15. Anti-LGBT, but pro-child rape. Sounds like a fundy to me.

These people and their weird god.

I just don't get it.

[Mr. Evil]

24. Their god is great to them.

Every time one of these people fuck up all they have to do is pray, ask for forgiveness and voila! All is well again!
A perpetual gift of endless mulligans.

[Claire Oh Nette]

21. No. No Problem

Is it not so skeevy if the children in the porn are only 14, or 12, or 6? He's welcome to watch all the porn he wants. Not a crime. He chose to download it. Crime.

Child porn. No problem at all.

[sarisataka]

26. Child molesters and abusers

Challenge my commitment to be anti-death penalty.

Child porn consumers enable and provide a market for the former.

I have no problem with a 20 year sentence.

[NickB79]

28. You actually just asked that?

Yes, possessing pornography involving CHILDREN should net you many years in prison.

[obamanut2012]

30. This is not a victimless crime -- 20 years is just the beginning

It should be 50 years.

How the hell can you even ask that?

[DesertRat]

35. Yes of course it does

Josh allegedly used the internet to download material of child sexual abuse, "some of which depicts the sexual abuse of children under the age of 12"

[bringthePaine]

19. ya mean "short eyes" Duggar, no?

[lonely bird]

23. Only one bad arrow?

In the Quiverful? I doubt it.

[Mr. Evil]

25. Makes me wonder about Daddy Duggar

and his friends.

[erpowers]

27. MAGA/Republican Response

MAGA/Republican response: Hunter Biden

[Devil Child]

31. I hope he enjoys the harsh realities of prison life. Child exploiting freak.

[Martin68]

32. More proof that Christian anti-sex fundamentalism breeds perversion.

[Evolve Dammit]

36. Can you say "addiction"? Sex, gambling, heroin, etc. take over lives. I am not justifying at all.

[JohnnyRingo]

38. I saw his mug shot....

...and he looks like someone who just got out of prison.

What can he say? He just loves kids.
hahaha
