The police report states that 4 of the 5 victims live at home ‘with JimBob and Michelle Duggar’. Who else would it be if not his younger sisters? One as young as 4.
“Did you ‘cop a feel’ on your sisters?”
No, I’m not French.
By definition, digital penetration qualifies as rape in Arkansas.
Hmm, learn something new every day I guess.
Using prepubescent children for your sexual gratification is sick and NOT EVERY 14 YEAR OLD BOY DOES IT. Sex crimes against children are so heinous and ruin lives so horribly that I’d vote for death penalty for anyone convicted of multiple offenses (two or more). I don’t care if the molester is famous (Woody Allen and this Duggar guy).
Molesters USE THEIR ROLE IN SOCIETY to get more access to kids to molest. Who cares what religion they either believè or just cloak themselves in??? Evil knows no one cloak.
I haven’t read all the comments but any FReepers supporting this man are just dead wrong. Most pedophiles get worse over time, not better. There is a huge difference between sexual interplay between two young people of roughly the same age and PREDATORY behavior on the helpless. Ask Bill Cosby.
Whoever didn't do anything stupid as a teen, you should be nominated for sainthood.
True... what my gf and I did when I was 12 would put me on the sex offender list nowadays. When will 5 year olds playing doctor be put on the sex offender list...
moves beyond exploring sexually, and is a symptom of something gone wrong in his brain that is almost impossible to cure. I feel bad for the family, but that is the simple reality. Their son has a problem beyond just simple sex issues. You don’t grow out of pedophilia tendencies.
This.
It’s the truth. What turns people on is what turns people on.
Bill Cosby wasn’t having a ton of extra-marital affairs, seducing women who wanted to be with him. He was drugging and using their bodies against their will to engage in masturbatory fantasies. So was this teen Duggar, repeatedly using unwilling child victims to satisfy himself sexually. He did it many times and no one knows if it stopped back then. He no doubt still has the same fantasies. He is a danger to little girls. I would NOT want to be his wife, who is surely hoping for more children including female ones.
Please don’t ever think that being religious or praying or coming from a religious family (of any religion) means someone can’t choose to engage in evil.
You did not just equate child molestation with stupid teen pranks. Please don’t give people breaks because they share your religion. Life doesn’t work that way. Every individual (not family, INDIVIDUAL) has to make his own choices re good and evil every day, nay, every moment.
Josh Duggar is Jerry Sandusky. His parents, if they continued with their TV show after their son was found to be pedophile with multiple assaults, are JoPa.
Not one of you have the authority to forgive him; his victims must do that in their own hearts and not upon command of their Rod-wielding parents. And his forgiveness from Gd is not our business. We have to live in THIS world, where we understand that sick pedophiles need to be kept away from little kids.
Wow. I’m seeing a lot of outrage and protectiveness over the perp, but very little for those innocent girls.
Lots of teens experiment at that age...with someone other than a sibling. That is the tragedy here. He molested his own sisters and they’ll have to bear the scars for the rest of their lives.
The bottom line is that people make decisions. The number one poor decision (not a mistake, decision) of the Duggar parents was not keeping Josh away from little girls. That failed to protect their family.
BTW - A 14 year old isn't some 4 year old playing doctor. 14 is high school age. There are many 14 year olds 6' tall and over 150 pounds. A 14 year old male knows that it is wrong to fondle little girls, especially inside the family.
The sad thing is that many people are defending this because they like the TV show and think that they are how they portray themselves on TV and think that's real life. They are outspoken Christians, so that makes it alright? No it doesn't. If these were Catholic priests, would you have the same opinions?
That may be the best description I've seen. The defenders, are the "Penn State football program (including fans)"
Seems every year a child in Kindergarten is labeled a sex offender for trying to kiss a girl.
I feel horrible for his sisters and the other victim. This publicity may bring them mentally back to that horrible place. I wish someone would have thought of them. Their parents, their brother, the media.
Um, no. The police report is available to read. He molested four of his sisters (out of the five that were part of the family at the time). Three were molested while they slept, the little one was molested while she sat on his lap, being read to, and then there was another girl from a different family who was visiting.
The moral relativism is jaw dropping. Judging the heinousness of these acts, or stating that, factually, he was at one time guilty of child molestation, isn’t the same as casting him headlong into the Lake of Fire. Mom and dad are guilty of not protecting their victimized daughters, by gambling this wouldn’t come out in the pursuit of rich pay days and trips across the globe. Women who are sexually violated deserve anonymity to protect their good names. It’s like being violated twice. That’s how real men respond to such a situation. They protect their daughters or spouses or whoever. That didn’t happen here.
Did you ever do anything as a child or in your youth (say from age 8 to age 16) to another child in the same age range that would be a far more serious immoral or even criminal act if you did as an adult to a child or adolescent?

No.
Why are people (including you) dismissing this as harmless exploration when a 14 year old boy fondled the genitals of a 4 year old? The police report said victims said he fondled their “breast and vaginas” while they were sleeping. This is predatory behavior. And this behavior does not respond well to treatment; he should be watched for life.
He behaved the way he did when he was old enough to know better and he preyed upon the vulnerable - he snuck into bedrooms to molest them as they slept.
I thought he was 14 at the time.
I would not be surprised if he commits suicide.
Man I never even knew who these folks are
What did he do and when.....
I got home today and wifey knew....not that wifey of porn fame since we’re on prurient tack
My mrs
This age difference is very disturbing - 14 and 4, not to mention the familial relationship. Not sure how anyone can defend his actions. And if his now-wife knew, why would she marry him? I would be concerned for my own children.
I also wonder what gave him the idea to molest his own sisters? Was he molested by someone at some point? Sick stuff, IMHO.
