It was revealed that Joseph did the same thing to a 9-year-old victim, and he may spend many years or even a lifetime in prison. Keep reading to see his mugshot photo.
‘Counting On‘: What Exactly Did Joseph Duggar Do?
According to reports, a 14-year-old came to the authorities to explain what Joseph did to her. The molestation happened in Panama City Beach, Florida, in 2020, when the girl was only 9. She revealed that Joseph kept asking her to sit on his lap, and he inappropriately touched her. She added that the Counting On alum “played” with her underwear and rubbed his genitals on her thighs.
Joseph admitted to the allegations, and it was also revealed that the victim’s father confronted him earlier this week. It may explain why Joseph is not as active as his other siblings. He and Kendra have four kids together, and his arrest would clearly devastate his family.
