Latest On Joseph & Kendra Duggar’s Arrests
Joseph Duggar was arrested in March after it was reported to the police that he had molested a 9-year-old girl several years ago while on vacation in Florida. Days after his arrest, his wife Kendra landed behind bars, too. They were both charged in a separate case involving child endangerment and false imprisonment involving their four young children.
Kendra Duggar was released on bond hours after her arrest. Her husband was kept in jail in Arkansas until he was extradited to Florida to face the molestation charges. He paid the bond and returned home.
Joseph and Kendra Duggar were barred from contacting or seeing their four children after their arrest. However, the order was lifted this week. They both pleaded not guilty to the charges involving their children. Their court date was pushed back to August.
The news that Joseph Duggar allegedly molested a young girl came five years after his older brother, Josh, was sent to prison after explicit photos of children were found on his work computer. A bombshell report in 2015 revealed that Josh Duggar molested four of his younger sisters.
