The oldest son did abuse his sisters. |
I believe the oldest daughter, who, btw, also has a criminal charge of child neglect because she was left with too many siblings/nieces/nephews to care for and one managed to escape, married a non-cult person. Mind you, she also didn't get married until 34 or 35 which was shocking in their cult. |
| These people are disgusting. The whole family. Evangelicals and MAGA are just full of pedos. It's sick. |
I think this is definitely true. Explains why multiple of his kids are pedophiles. |
| I wonder in this new generation of tradwife mass breeders who will end up with a Duggar reputation. |
Nope, he is from a fundamentalist cult family as well. https://19andcounting.fandom.com/wiki/Stephen_Wissmann |
His sister is married to Jeremiah Duggar. These people don't really let their kids marry normals. I think the best you can hope for is to leave the cult together or put some distance between them and your new family once married. I think one of the Duggar girls kind of has this? |
+1 The prosecutor said it was the worst he’d ever seen over his long career or prosecuting these kinds of cases. Just horrifying. All the thanks and good wishes to those who have to do this to put these people away. The Duggars can go to hell, and would if there was one. |
I think it’s Jill that married a semi-normal guy with a college education and a normal job. |
There is a also just a lot of evidence that purity culture and patriarchal religions actually contribute a lot to this problem |
|
OMG. Absolutely crazy. Am I the only one who kind of feels bad for the wife? I don’t agree with their beliefs but geez…married off in her teens and has five kids with a man who abused a 9 YO?
Maybe she will be the one to leave and write a tell all. Do it, Kendra, you’ll be set for life. |
| How many kids does he have? The wives of these men are screwed. No job. Tons of kids. Disgusting husbands. |
Yes, Derrick is a lawyer. Was an ADA for awhile and now has his own firm. He seemed to realize that the Duggar kids were getting fleeced by Jim Bob and demanded they give Jill the money she was entitled to. It drove a rift in the family and they have gotten way more mainstream during the quasi-estrangement. No longer in the cult vs a more mainstream sect, moved away, Jill wears jeans, etc. |
Anna didn’t leave Josh and he has federal charges. These women have minimal job skills and I wouldn’t be surprised if they didn’t have anything in their name. Not only this but they have to deal with the social pressure from their communities and families about divorce. They aren’t going anywhere. |
| That's horrible. I fear there may be more victims too, with how many children he could have had access to in his family. |
