Conditions Of Josh Duggar’s Release Amid Child Porn Charges
On Wednesday, Josh Duggar had his detention hearing following his arrest for the possession of child porn. Now, he’s being released on bail.
During the hearing, new details of the content he possessed were released. The special agent on this case revealed just how bad the content was, stating that it was some of the worst he had seen in his experience. Some of the content Josh had downloaded included the sexual abuse of children as young as 18 months old.
Amid the hearing, Josh was laughing and smirking. Even though the topic of the case was very sensitive, he couldn’t seem to take it seriously. Despite the detailed reports of the content on his devices, the judge released him on bail. He will have a trial in July and may be charged then.
