Josh Duggar, who formerly starred in the TLC show, 19 Kids and Counting stayed in the Washington County detention center since his conviction. Convicted in December of downloading child porn, it was expected that he would be transferred to federal prison. Now he’s been moved out, fans of the replacement show, Counting On, commented on how he has changed.
Josh Duggar Is Moved Out Of The Detention Facility In Washington
Prior to the guilty verdict, the former TLC star stayed with pastor Lacount Reber and his wife, Maria as part of his bail conditions. Well, when the verdict was read out, he was immediately taken out of the court and placed in custody in the Washington County Detention Center. He stayed there whilst his legal team filed various motions until his sentencing date. Sentenced to 12 years and seven months, it will be a long time before he spends time with his family again.
Josh Duggar caused a scandal more than once with cheating allegations, but he compounded his porn offense because he earlier molested his younger sisters. The courts heard all about it, despite his dad, Jim Bob having a memory lapse during the hearings. Perhaps that’s why he stayed in protective custody for so long. If you don’t know, the judges recommended that he goes to either Texarkana or Seagoville to serve his sentence. But the transfer out of Washington County doesn’t mean he goes straight there.
Josh Duggar Wears Shackles
KNWA reported that there “is also a Federal Transfer Center in Oklahoma City that serves as the main hub” for prisoners in transit, So, he could end up there for a bit. Katie Joy obtained footage from Kark and she shared it on Without A Crystal Ball on Instagram on June 24. In her caption, she noted that he was “shackled.” Additionally, she opined, “The man in front of Josh looks like he wants to punch him. This is going to be a long 12.5 years for Golden Boy.”
Fans of 19 Kids and Counting and Counting On noticed that Josh Duggar now has a full beard. Additionally, he seems to have put on weight in detention. Actually, one person noted, “I personally love his new look 😌😌😌.”
Others commented on his weight, and this one rolled in: “Wow he really had gained weight. Stress eating!”
Another one questioned, “How does someone go to jail and gain fat?”
