On April 4th, Joseph Dugger, the 31-year-old from the reality TV family, got arrested last month on charges of molesting a nine-year-old girl. Back in 2020 during a Florida beach trip, authorities say he touched her inappropriately under a blanket. He pleaded not guilty and got out on a $600,000 bond by posting $60,000 cash. His wife Kendra scrambled to cover that bond, clearing out their Arkansas home to rented and talking about selling off four wheelers, trailers, and other gear for Quick Cash. She's got four young kids with him, but now he's banned from unsupervised contact with any minors, including their own children. Two days after his arrest on March 20th, Kendra got picked up two on child endangerment and false imprisonment charges. They're both facing those. In Arkansas Court on April 29th, she posted a $1,470 bond and got released same day, but the kids are out of their care for at least a month. Family speaking out dad Jim Bob wrote him a letter calling his choices terrible, but

saying God's forgiven if he asks, and warned of long, consequences. Sister's Jana and Joseph posted online, heartbroken for the victim, calling it a grievous wrong and praying for justice. Court dates shifted. His Florida case now hits May 18th for a jury trial. The Duggers reunited back home without the kids, fighting separate battles while the rental plan aims to keep steady income flowing. That's the story for today. Entertainment and celebrity news. Today, driven by AI, I'm Corey with the story.
