During the sentencing hearing, Judge Brooks told Josh’s wife, Anna Duggar, that “the images were some of the worst that this court has ever encountered.”

Josh was found guilty of possessing and receiving child pornography in December 9, 2021. Duggar has had previous issues concerning child pornography and molestation that led to the end of his reality TV series with his family.

Joy Duggar spoke out on December 12 writing on her Instagram Story, “Over this last year, as you can imagine, there have been a lot of unanswered questions in our minds regarding Josh,” she started her message. “We were able to sit through the trial to hear the evidence for ourselves.

Our hearts break for CSAM victims.”
