Duggar Scandal: Third Underage Girl Accusation

0:00Today is March 20th. Here's what's trending in entertainment. Joseph Dugger, the 31-year-old reality TV star from the Dugger family, made his first court appearance via Zoom on Friday, March 20th in Arkansas, Courthouse. He waived his right to an extradition hearing, clearing the path for him to be sent to Florida on charges of lude and the Sivius molestation of a girl, under 12 years old. The accusation stems from an alleged incident in 2020 during a family vacation in Panama City, Florida. A now 14-year-old girl reported that Dugger, who was over 18 at the time, engaged in unlawful sexual activity with her when she was nine. No family members, including his wife Kendra, showed up for the hearing. Dugger is a father of four, married since 2017, and has appeared on multiple seasons of his family's TLC shows. Meanwhile, police in Tantytown, Arkansas say their investigation remains open, hinting at possible additional charges down the line. This marks the third scandal involving
