Former reality TV star Joseph Duggar is facing a child molestation charge in Florida, almost five years after his brother Josh, who also starred in the TLC show "19 Kids and Counting," was convicted of downloading child sexual abuse images.
Joseph Duggar, 31, was arrested in Arkansas, where he lives, and was awaiting extradition to Florida on Thursday. Duggar is charged with lewd and lascivious behavior on a child under 12 years old, according to an arrest affidavit from the Bay County Sheriff's Office in Panama City, Florida.
Police officers in Tontitown, Arkansas, on Wednesday contacted deputies in Bay County, saying they had interviewed a 14-year-old girl who told them that Duggar had molested her several times during a family trip to Panama City Beach when she was age 9, according to the affidavit.

I don’t get it. How hard is it to just NOT molest your wife’s baby sister?
Thanks a lot, AGAIN, freak family.
I live up the road from these people and their sect.
I really don’t think abuse has much to do with it. In this area if you gathered any random flock of 14 guys you’d find two who would try to creep on a minor.
For those not aware the sect is “The Quiverful” and Tontitown is their base. These are not horrible people.
He admitted it,so...
I’m beginning to suspect that being famous is not the same as being a good Christian.
