Here's more world news for March 19th. Joseph Dugger, the 31-year-old from the famous reality TB family, behind 19 kids and counting, faces serious charges after his arrest. This week, authorities accuse him of sexually abusing a nine-year-old girl during a vacation. Bay County Sheriff's Deputies in Florida charged him with lute and lascivious behavior involving unlawful activity with a minor. Police nabbed him in Tantytown, Arkansas, and he will soon be extradited south. The Dugger family gained fame on their TLC show, which followed parents Jim Bove and Michelle raising 19 kids with J names. But scandals have plagued them, especially with Joseph's older brother Josh. Josh Dugger is serving a 12-year prison term since 2022 for possessing child-sex abuse images. As a teen, he faced accusations of molesting five young girls, including four sisters, which helped cancel the show in 2015. The victim told officials Dugger kept asking her to sit on his lap on the couch, then touched

her thighs, underwear, and genitals. He apologized and stopped after that, according to reports. This DNN story is thanks to our sponsor details in the description. Some for you can hear, sound you can relax into, S-O-L-I-S-O-L-L-P-L-O.com.
