Official 'Scust Thread of Non-Political News

Jim Bob Duggar waited more than a year after his son, Josh, confessed to sexually molesting several female minors before contacting police, In Touch Magazine is reporting exclusively, based on information contained in the official police report.

What’s more, Jim Bob informed the elders of his church about Joshua’s actions and they waited three months before contacting authorities. The explosive new information is contained in a Springdale, Ark., police report obtained by In Touch magazine.
:snoop
Quote
Other bombshells in the police report are: Josh Duggar was investigated for multiple sex offenses — including forcible fondling — against five minors. Some of the alleged offenses investigated were felonies. Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar were interview by the Springdale Police department on Dec. 12, 2006. The report says that James told police he was alerted in March, 2002 by a female minor that Josh — who turned 14-years-old that month — had been touching her breasts and genitals while she slept. This allegedly happened on multiple occasions. In 2006, Jim Bob told police that in July, 2002 Josh admitted to fondling a minor’s breasts while she slept. “James said that they disciplined (redacted, Josh) after this incident.” The family did not alert authorities.


Quote
Jim Bob then “met with the elders of his church and told them what was going on.” No one alerted the police or any other law enforcement agency. Instead they decided to send Josh to a “program [that] consisted of hard physical work and counseling. James said that [redacted, Josh] was in the program from March 17, 2003 until July 17, 2003.”

He said the program was a “Christian program.” Michelle Duggar later admitted to police that Josh did not receive counseling and instead had been sent during that time to a family friend who was in the home remodeling business.
Quote
Jim Bob told police in 2006 that when Josh returned home in 2003, Jim Bob, accompanied by some of his church elders, took Josh to Arkansas State Trooper, Jim Hutchens. Jim Bob knew Hutchens personally. Hutchens did not take any official action and instead gave Josh a “very stern talk.” As In Touch magazine reports exclusively in this week’s issue, Hutchens is now serving 56-years in prison for child pornography. He took no action on the Duggar case.

So a guy protecting his pedophile son just so happened to take him to speak with a state trooper who just so happened to be a pedophile too?


Yea...this is bigger than one dude. Calling it now.

Oh, you didn't even include the rumor that the at least some of the girls he molested were his sisters? Yeah, cuz there's that.

So now we've got two TLC hillbilly reality shows probably going to end in child rape scandals.

He resigned from the FRC lol. Statement:
Quote
"Twelve years ago, as a young teenager, I acted inexcusably for which I am extremely sorry and deeply regret. I hurt others, including my family and close friends. I confessed this to my parents who took several steps to help me address the situation. We spoke with the authorities where I confessed my wrongdoing, and my parents arranged for me and those affected by my actions to receive counseling. I understood that if I continued down this wrong road that I would end up ruining my life."

Yea...I'm going to assume those weren't the only examples of him diddling kids. They're basically a cult so I doubt any of the girls will come out and talk about this. Specifically whether their father was involved too.

Holy crap, their show has 227 episodes.

Quote
The Duggars chose to wait before having children and used birth control pills in the early years of their marriage. Their eldest child, Josh, was born in 1988. They resumed using oral contraceptives after Josh's birth but conceived again despite this precaution. Michelle miscarried that pregnancy. Michelle has mentioned that they named that child Caleb, despite not knowing the baby's sex for certain. The Duggars believed the miscarriage was due to their use of contraceptives, and decided to stop using birth control. They decided to "allow God to determine the number of children they would have."

Quote
They adhere to certain standards of modesty in clothing in accordance with their religious beliefs. Shorts and tank tops are prohibited, and the women do not wear skirts with a length above the knee. According to Michelle, the Duggars feel that exposure of the thighs amounts to "nakedness and shame," and runs the risk of "defrauding" others by encouraging lustful thoughts. They avoid beaches and swimming in public to negate the possibility of exposure to other women and "lustful thoughts" by their men.
Quote
Female family members do not cut their hair short, and males are clean-shaven and short-haired. They practice chaperoned courtship, instead of typical dating, which includes rules against such things as any physical contact. The suitor must ask permission from the young woman's father before approaching her for a courtship and before proposing to her.

Quote
The Duggars issued an announcement that Jessa Duggar was in a courtship with Ben Seewald on September 18, 2013. The couple met through their church and were "enjoying getting to know each other and are recommending sermons to one another."
Quote
Jill's courtship with Derrick Dillard was announced on March 31, 2014. They were introduced by Jim and became acquainted via supervised Skype and text conversations while Derick was serving as a missionary in Nepal. Jill and Jim traveled to Nepal to meet Derick in person and began a formal courtship in November 2013.

Quote
The couple had discussed the possibility of having more children, with Michelle Duggar saying,

We would love more! I'm 43, almost 44 this September. I know that my mommy years are probably numbered, and I don't know how many more children God will see fit to give me. ... It is something we've been praying about because we do love children. Each child really is a gift and that doesn't mean just our children. We asked the Lord to give us a love of children the way He loves children. That is something that we've prayed about, and we'll just see what the Lord has in store for our family in the future.

Wonder if he'll get this again: http://firstread.nbcnews.com/_news/2012/01/02/9899530-santorum-wins-support-of-tlcs-duggar-clan

They endorsed Huckabee in 2008. Wonder if that will divide the clan this primary season.

EDIT: Guess they already went Huck:
Quote
As Business Insider first reported, Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar, the social conservative icons whose enormous family star in the TLC reality series 19 Kids and Counting, have endorsed former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee‘s bid for the presidency on the very afternoon he announced.

The couple famously supported Santorum in his 2012 bid.

When Huckabee announced his candidacy, the Duggars publicly supported him on the campaign website’s “I Like Mike” page. The former Fox News host is a “man of faith who is very wise,” wrote Michelle. “He will help get our national back on track.

“America needs Governor Huckabee for president!” Jim Bob said. “Governor Huckabee has the communication skills of Ronald Reagan, and a common sense business approach to government.”

Who backed them up in his book against bullies:
Quote
In his new book God, Guns, Grits, and Gravy, the former Arkansas governor calls Jim Bob and Michelle’s 19 children “every parent’s dream” in their “attitudes toward each other, their parents, and their chores.”

“I’ve marveled at the exemplary manners and behavior of all their children,” Huckabee raves.

Despite Josh, Jana, Jessa, Jill and the others’ allegedly angelic behavior, the siblings “have endured relentless and vicious ridicule from the snobby and snotty sophisticates,” the 59-year-old politician claims.

These purported bullies “exemplify their own jealousy of how well behaved the Duggar kids are compared to the little hellions and yuppie larvae created by the critics of the Duggars.”

Sending Josh Duggar to some Christian camp to cure him made me cringe.

I typically don't get worked up over people's symbolic beliefs (religious or otherwise) anymore, but you can't just avoid real intervention and treatment, let him move back in with the girls he molested, and pretend it's okay.  That's some anti-vaccination shit, hurting your own children rather than giving up your own fixations.  Bah.  It's just sad all over.

It would be one thing if they actually HAD sent him to some re-education camp, but apparently when pressed about it, Matron Uterus Duggar or whatever her name is admitted to the cops that they sent him to get lectured by a handyman friend of theirs and do some physical labor for a couple months. Then of course there's the fact that the cop who, years later, gave Josh a stern talking to was later arrested for and is serving 50+ years for possession of child pornography.

Be famous for being parents and abjectly fail at that endeavor, brehs.

I've mentioned this before, but a teacher at the Baptist private school I played basketball for in middle/high school was caught having an affair with a student. She was around 18 when it was discovered but it more than likely began when she was underage. The girl was exiled from the school and church before she could graduate. Meanwhile the teacher lost his job but was brought back to do odd jobs (yard/construction work, refereed some of our games lol, etc)...before being reinstated as a teacher (science/biology).

BTW, the worst part about that "handout" is that it's part of a homeschooling program. Home. School. Which means sexually assaulting your sister is something that happens frequently enough in these wackadoodle familes, they need to write a chapter on "Hey brehs, don't feel up your sister. And hey brehettes, don't dress slutty and made your brother have to rape you, you hoor."

I'll slightly defend my homeschooled brethren: most homeschooled kids don't use that curriculum, which is directly tied to a cult leader. The most popular homeschool curriculum tends to be A Beka Books and Bob Jones stuff. Both of which have their own problems - the former which includes partisan history books that denigrate MLK/Civil Rights leaders, and the latter which was founded by a racists.

Shout outs to Atramental. Nicca we made it.

"Those who have enjoyed revealing this long ago sins in order to discredit the Duggar family have actually revealed their own insensitive bloodthirst, for there was no consideration of the fact that the victims wanted this to be left in the past and ultimately a judge had the information on file destroyed_not to protect Josh, but the innocent victims," Huckabee wrote.

Arkansas Sen. Bart Hester said Josh Duggar, who he has known for about five years, has been open and honest about the incident with wife, family and friends. State Sen. Jon Woods, who has known the Duggar family since 2005, said the family had put the issue behind them.

our justice system truly is amazing. be a white conservative hillbilly fuck and you can get away with being a serial kid rapist, as long as you say you payed for forgiveness. meanwhile these are the same turds who push for anti- everything legislation and preach extreme judgementalism.

the megachurch near where I grew up, and where a lot of my family went, is dealing with the same shit right now. the old fucks that ran the church knew the youth pastor was molesting kids left and right but did nothing bc personal reflection and accountability isn't something the church actually wants. fortunately in that case the law did something and now the dude is locked up for life.

Even with counseling child molesters have a high recidivism rate, and like PD noted on the last page the only counseling this dude got was a stern talking-to by a pedophile.

But assuming this matter was entirely contained to episodes at ages 14~15, there has been some severe neglect, and aiding and abetting involved in this case. Everything from keeping the whole affair on the downlow to the police purging their documents on the case.

How much does the fact that he was 14 or 15 affect you guys' thoughts about this matter?

I don't really know enough to form an opinion on that aspect of it.

Given the number of people he molested it's hard to just think of this as a big childhood fuck up.

That said my attention is more directed at the institutional failures that aided this and the disgusting environment children are being brainwashed in.

Or maybe they meant specifically at one of those locations.

A Republican lawmaker on Saturday called for the termination of the police chief who released a 2006 offense report alleging that Josh Duggar, of TLC's "19 Kids and Counting," molested five underage girls when he was a teenager.

Arkansas state Sen. Bart Hester (R) told local TV station KFSM that he believed Springdale Police Chief Kathy O'Kelly compromised the identities of the eldest Duggar's alleged victims by releasing the police report.

“The law to protect minors’ identities is not a suggestion,” Hester said. “So sad to see the person charged with protecting the community being so reckless and irresponsible. I believe it is unavoidable that the Springdale police chief should be terminated. She has re-victimized these young ladies.”

Tabloid magazine In Touch Weekly on Thursday published the offense report, which it obtained through a public records request. The names of the victims, as well as Josh Duggar's name, were redacted. The report was destroyed the same day it was published in the magazine by order of Judge Stacey Zimmerman.

Yet Hester suggested that the identities of all sex crimes victims in Springdale were now in danger of becoming public based on the way O'Kelly handled the Duggar offense report. He went as far as suggesting that the police chief could face criminal charges.

“The city of Springdale’s liability seems endless on this,” he told KFSM. “I certainly anticipate criminal charges against Chief O’Kelley.”

It's understandable why any family would want to protect their kid no matter what crime they committed. I don't know if a 17 year old would get on the registry but he certainly knew what he was doing was wrong. Very very wrong.

IMO it was worse that the first part of their curriculum on sexual assault is to suggest the girl could have prevented it or (if they really weren't at fault) that they'll more or less end up closer to God anyways.

I don't think it's understandable when your kid is demonstrably harmful to other people.

Being a protective parent is getting your kid the best help (legal and professional) available. What happened here is just self-interested clannishness.

Well, ANY system that punishes child molestation is going to create incentives for people to cover up their own crimes and possibly aid and abet loved ones.  Pretty sure that juvenile offenders can avoid or be removed from the registry system, though I couldn't say what Josh Duggar's prospects would have specifically been in this case.

While it's understandable that parents might try to keep their child out of a draconian legal system, the expectation that everyone would be cool with them treating this as a "family matter" and getting to choose whether the police would get involved is the definition of privilege that us SJW's keep harping on about.  Plus the fact that they were putting several of their other children at risk makes them seem less like rationally protective parents, and more like dangerously self-deluding zealots.

I just don't think the "best possible legal help" exists in the U.S.

From what I've read of the sex offender registry, you might as well just kill yourself once you get put on it. Your life as you knew it is over.

The U.S. has very poor systems for dealing with situations like this, IMO. The framework creates perverse incentives.

A lawyer can only do so much for a serial molester, and ultimately an adversarial legal system is merely one in which a zealous defense checks lazy and overreaching prosecution.

I haven't read anything academic about the efficacy of offender lists so I can't really speak to them other than to say that morally I don't agree with punishing people post-incarceration or applying adult punishment to juvenile offenders.
