10. 19 kids, 11 sons and 8 daughters

Wed Mar 18, 2026, 07:19 PM

Wednesday

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.
