The oldest child of the Duggar clan, whose history of molesting his own siblings brought down the family's show earlier this year, is now mired in another scandal as he admits to living a 'double life' and being unfaithful to wife Anna.
Josh's statement:
"I have been the biggest hypocrite ever. While espousing faith and family values, I have secretly over the last several years been viewing pornography on the internet and this became a secret addiction and I became unfaithful to my wife.
I am so ashamed of the double life that I have been living and am grieved for the hurt, pain and disgrace my sin has caused my wife and family, and most of all Jesus and all those who profess faith in Him.
I brought hurt and a reproach to my family, close friends and the fans of our show with my actions that happened when I was 14-15 years old, and now I have re-broken their trust.
The last few years, while publicly stating I was fighting against immorality in our country, I was hiding my own personal failings.
As I am learning the hard way, we have the freedom to choose to our actions, but we do not get to choose our consequences. I deeply regret all hurt I have caused so many by being such a bad example. I humbly ask for your forgiveness. Please pray for my precious wife Anna and our family during this time."

Would love to know if the husbands would stay married and would they be so quick to forgive if it was their wives who strayed?
(Leslie)
White Organza, we all know that Anna has not said anything. That is a given. Do you not agree with my opinion that "Anna is probably beyond devastated and humiliated about this years of seeking out other woman to experiment with." I really don't understand your post #150.
Leslie, I do agree with your opinion that Anna is probably beyond devastated and humiliated even if she hasn't said anything yet, but it is speculation on my part.
The sisters have said they weren't affected at all by their molestation incident... but then one of them bursted into tears, claiming the public disclosure by the press made them a victim a SECOND time. So my opinion about Jessa and Jill is that they are probably humiliated and devastated beyond what they are allowed to realize yet. But that too, -as for my opinion on Anna-, is pure speculation.
I don't think anyone can say for sure how a person is or isn't affected by an incident: one's perception is one's reality. And, personally, I do perceive being preyed on as a powerless child as worst than being an adult with the power to kick a cheating husband to the curb.
I firmly believe that Josh's sisters said what was scripted by their father for them to say. You know that they didn't go in to that interview without intensive coaching.
As far as far as any web site can be hacked, yup, yup, yup! Just ask OPM. The government is now paying for credit monitoring for who know how many people AND there's talk about it becoming lifetime monitoring.

Ugh! People gave them ANOTHER story? In the famous words of sKate Gosselin: "I don't get it."
http://www.people.com/article/duggars-religious-beliefs-lifestyle-their-own-words
They deny they're Quiverfull.
==========================
My favorite quotes from the article:
The couple have created a conservative Christian belief system that has become the foundation for their approach everyday life.
"It is one of the reasons we treasure our faith so much because God's kindness and goodness and forgiveness are extended to us – even though we are so underserving."
---------------------------
So they made up their own religion (not Quiverful, no, not at all) and treasure it because they can do anything they want and all will be forgiven? I guess if you invent a religion, it might as well be a very convenient one.
(Leslie)
I am shocked that Josh and Anna were not in the photo. The entire family forgave him so why didn't they insist that he be in it. Or did Josh insist that he NOT be in the photo. If that was the case, then is he in hiding and can't show his face in public.
And that article provided zero new information. Just regurgitated sayings and quotes that have already been printed. And Jill and Jessa are going to be on the cover of People with the title being Life After The Scandal. Well, it can't be talking about the newest scandal, can it? I bet anything that article will have no new info. I also "I just don't get it". I bet TLC is putting them on the cover this week because of their special. And I wonder if they will say anything new in the special that they have not said in their previous hour special.
I bet Ma and Pa and even Jill and Jessa do not let these secular magazines into their homes. They probably cut out the articles that they are in.They can't have such evilness lurking around the home yet they make tons of money off of it for staring and promoting it.
Josh's using that man's pic for his OK profile is a wake up call fir everyone-- ANY pic you put on the www, it's free game for anyone to use as they please.
Scary stuff
A few weeks back I read a woman discovered someone had copied from her facebook account a picture of her daughter-- they were using it on a porn site, I think.
(There wasn't anything wrong with the pic looking at it from a normal perspective, but when changed just a bit you could perhaps see an abnormal view( if that makes sense).
More on the AM data release.

While it may not be quivers, they're FULL of something.
Thanks, FlimsyFlamsy! VB deserves her own show.
Cute story about VB at the deli counter. I had a run in with a celebrity 29 years ago in the grocery store. Johnny Lee, the country singer who sang, Looking for Love (In all the wrong places) on the movie, Urban Cowboy. He and one of his wives or gf were at the meat counter looking at chicken and I didn't realize who he was.
All I knew was I had a 3 1/2 yr. old, a 17 month old and a 6 month old in the cart, around the cart and I wanted to grab some chicken and get out of there. I actually heard him tell her, I'm not saying that I won't eat it. haha Well, I grabbed some chicken and stepped back over to my cart and there was a sweet little blonde haired little girl about 6 yrs. old just oohing and ahhing my 6 month old. So I talked to her and she was asking me about the baby.
So later on in the store it dawned on me that the little girl was Charlene Tilton's little girl! I couldn't believe it. We finally all got to the register and the bag boy just stood down at the end and I had to wrestle all the groceries by myself, while the manager, a man, who was a country fan, went personally and bagged his groceries!
While all this was going on, there was a very bad lightning, thunderstorm outside. Lightning was striking everywhere. Well, I managed to get everyone and everything to the bench to wait out the storm. I was like wow, there goes Johnny Lee and his group walk right out in the storm and rain. Out there with a metal buggy? No thanks!
I read in the paper that he had bought lake front property and saw him on the news saying, X amount of acres lake front for 50K? with a big smile on his face! I wonder if he still has it. haha
I don't think he feels any remorse for his actions. He probably feels sorry for himself--that he got caught, Daddy can't fix it, and he and his family have lost a certain lifestyle.
------------------
If he gets the pants sued off him for lifting that photo, will he go crying to Daddy Boobs to pay for an attorney and if the plaintiff wins, will Boobster have to take care of the judgment for Joshie Boy?

If we wanna go a little off topic, I was sidetracked by another article when I was reading an article about Josh Duggar. What the hell has Courtney Cox gone and done with her beautiful face? She looks like Caitlyn Jenner now.

Auntie if you were Quiverfull, you'd be a Quiverfull quivering in your crocks!
So they made up their own religion (not Quiverful, no, not at all) and treasure it because they can do anything they want and all will be forgiven? I guess if you invent a religion, it might as well be a very convenient one.
&&&&
There is an old really brilliant episode of Family Guy about how a group of people start their own church around Fonzy from Happy Days. Complete with dogma and rituals and church services. The Fonz be with you.
It's just such spot on commentary about how arbitrary religion can be and how anyone can believe what they want and it's so. It also stands for the idea that as ridiculous as the Church of Fonz sounds, is it really THAT ridiculous compared to what else is out there?
Those writers are great.
I must be misunderstanding Quiverful. I thought it was a one pony show where members decide to let God determine how many children they will have. Beyond that I am unfamiliar with their platform. I thought the Duggars simply decided to adopt that one aspect, but nothing else. Therefore they don't consider themselves Quivvers.
They arrested that guy who was hiding Rosie ODonnell's daughter.
Good.
Whatever Gotthard preached, the Duggars followed.
Doesn't matter if you call it quiverfull, or damn weird. It's all the same.
The husband is the absolute authority. Have as many kids as you can. Homeschool your children. No higher education for the children. Daughters live at home until marriage.
If it walks like a duck......
I must be misunderstanding Quiverful.
-----------------------
It's Quiverfull, with the name taken from the Bible...
Psalm 127. "Like arrows in the hands of a warrior are children born in one’s youth. Blessed is the man whose quiver is full of them." I think the belief that children are a blessing from God is the foundation of the movement. That's what the Duggars are always espousing.
This is a good explanation of the Quiverfulls and the Duggars:

Ot re college textbooks, we have been using Amazon and alternate means to find textbooks since older dd was in college. Depending on the course, our kids have used ebooks, rental books, ordering off Amazon or Barnes and noble, once I even had a copy of a required reading on the bookshelf already (the man who mistook his wife for a hat). There are lots more options than when I was in school!
(Leslie)
Foxy, you asked me if it was an assault. I really don't know. I thought Mack thought I was just not valuable enough and therefore that is why he treated me that way. And I did question my behavior which was ridiculous. It was 1974 and everybody wore short shorts and mini skirts. But I was in no way promiscuous in my dress or actions. In fact I was a virgin, extremely shy, and very quiet. My thought was if Mack respected me he would not have chosen me ( his sister-in-law) to repeatedly attack me. Anyway I certainly know that it was not my fault and that his actions were his problems and not mine. You know I was the spitting image of his wife except I was 5'9" and 130 lbs. and my sister was at least 75 to 100 lbs. overweight.
In 1974 McDonalds had a commercials about their "Big Mac Attack" for their hamburgers. Well, one time after Mack attacked me, I called my other sister (not his wife) and without thinking I blurted out, "Well, I had a Big Mack Attack" again." Laurie laughed out loud and I asked her what was so funny. She said, Leslie you subconsciously said that that you had a "Big Mac Attack". So thereafter we would always refer to these incidents as "Big Mack Attacks". It added some levity to the situation.
Again, I am in no way comparing my experience to others that were molested. But this experience gave me a taste of being made to feel like a piece of meat that he tried to chew and spit out. Oh brother, I swear I did not mean that as a pun. Strange how the brain works...especially mine!

&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
I think JimBoob's only got a couple of choices re: financing JoshieBoy's defense when he gets sued.
1. Pay for JoshieBoy's attorney. However, this could really drain his coffers fast. I would think there will be attorneys lined up out the door wanting to take this case, even pro bono, as it could very well set a precedent in this area. I don't remember the name of the attorney who defended Jon and Robert, but I'm envisioning the same scenario.
2. Give JoshieBoy whatever money is due him for all his years of participation in their 'reality' show and set him loose to fend for himself.
If JimBoob chooses #1 and I was the attorney, I'd insist on a public jury trail and/or if a settlement is reached, I wouldn't agree to it being confidential and would insist on clauses for further financial penalties if JimBoob, JoshieBoy or any of the Duggar family try to rewrite history via public statements or interviews afterwards.
JimBoob and JoshieBoy are bullies of the highest caliber and their actions need to be examined under a bright light.

But he wasn't working. He was just running in and out of shots. Pa and Ma were the ones working. Right, sKate?
I can't see Pa handing over 5 cents. I can see this reaching a settlement very quietly. I'm sure this guy doesn't want to have this drag on forever. He might make more money giving a few interviews about how outraged he is. He might do some sabre rattling and accept the first offer the Duggars would make. I'd be in and out quickly and move on with my life.
Continuing on seeing Johnny Lee at the grocery store.
I always wondered what happened to Johnny and Charlene's little girl. A couple of years after that encounter, I saw Charlene on the Tonight Show and she was talking and she was asked about JL and you could tell she was a little mad and she said that when the baby was born he wanted to name it Bubba!
She would be 35 by now. I just happened to google a while back and she had just got married and she was so beautiful! She was pictured in her beautiful wedding gown and her parents and they were all just beaming!
R'uh R'oh, let the extortion begin.

The leaked information is being used to target the people who were a part of the AM hack and basically try to blackmail them.
Well, there's one thing Josh Duggar doesn't have to worry about.

I am in one hundred percent agreeance with that.
http://money.cnn.com/2015/08/21/technology/ashley-madison-users-extorted/index.html?iid=hp-stack-dom
First paragraph of the extortion letter states that the person has the information. Second paragraph says that "if you would like to prevent me from finding this information..."
Which one is it, buddy? Either you have it or you don't!
Well, there's one thing Josh Duggar doesn't have to worry about.

I'm sure Ma & Pa Duggar feel that they are the stars just like TFMJG despite the fact that many of their original specials highlighted the number of kids they had at the time in the title of the special.
However, I do hope that the young man whose picture was used by JoshieBoy doesn't take the first offer and run. I think JoshieBoy needs to twist in the wind for a while so he can experience what it feels like to be taken to task for his actions, much as he suggested that people who did not adhere to his beliefs re: marriage, family, etc. should. Lowlifes and bullies like Joshieboy need to realize that there will be repercussions, karma etc. or whatever one wants to call it for their actions.
"JoshieBoy doesn't take the first offer and run. I think JoshieBoy needs to twist in the wind for a while so he can experience what it feels like to be taken to task for his actions,"
--------------------
IF there were such a suit, it could go on for years. Don't you think that Josh would just let his father handle everything and clean up his mess, as he's always done? I'm just not sure that Josh would do much squirming if old Pa will be in charge of fixing it all.
But it would still be JoshieBoy named as the defendant and any judgment would be against him. Bonus points if he at least has to go thru depositions without JimBoob controlling the narrative. So he'd squirm at least a little.

As a wise person once said, "You can't get blood from a stone." Josh has no money. Or very little. I'm sure he's quaking in his boots, (or should I say quivering) at the thought of a lawsuit by the guy whose picture he used. What does a big fat judgement get you if there's no money. Use it for self promotion like BV did? "Hi, I'm the dj that sued Josh Duggar. Wanna hire me?"
If I were this guy, the sooner I could move on from this mess, the better I'd like it. He could waste time and money going after something that doesn't exist. It's also possible that he's got things in his life that need not become public. I'd want to put it behind me asap.
I'm hoping the Duggar scandals have ended the ridiculous idea that Ma and Pa might adopt more kids. I believe they mentioned it at one point. I can't find a reference but I'm sure I heard them speak of it after the miscarriage?

I call bullshit. It's an attempt to redirect the attention from him molesting his sisters and another little girl to something a lot less serious. BULL.SHIT.
___________
What? Bullshit on his latest confession? I don't think admitting that you signed up with Ashley Madison--a website for the sole purpose of having sex with other women other than your wife--is less serious that what he did to his sisters. To me this if way, way more serious.
And why are a few doubting whether he had actual sex with other women. Wasn't the purpose of him signing up to have sex with other woman. Am I missing something?
-----------------------
You find child abuse less serious than extramarital affairs? Unlinke the little girls he abused, the women he intended to have sex with were consenting adults who could say yes or no. Is cheating ok? Not in my book. Do I think child pornography is a lot worse than a man cheating on his wife? Absolutely.

Not entirely true. If you sue you can have a lien against their property or any future funds they may come into.
Josh may get paid big bucks for an interview or "photos." You just never know what money he may come into later on.
Although I'm hoping his wife dumps him and she takes most of it.
Did Josh use Matthew McCarthy's picture on his Ashley Madison account? I just read a blurb on line that Matthew McCarthy's picture was used by Josh Duggar, same Fayetteville, AR address as his AM account, on an OKCupid account. How many more accounts are going to come out that this guy was on?

I'm well aware of all of those things. What I'm saying is how much money/time/energy do you want to spend? I wouldn't want to be associated with this ugly story any longer than I had to. It's bad enough the guy was dragged into this in the first place.
Not that I have anything to hide if this happened to me, but does this guy really want his life to be put under a microscope by the tabloids? Like I said, I'd run as far and as fast away from this as I could. But maybe that's just me.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Ma and Pa Duggar and all the kids and Josh and crew, I think to the seminar about adoption. They stood there at the podium and said with all the kids all around them that they would adopt. I don't know if this was before or after Baby Jubilee was buried in a old ammo box.
I was so horrified and bawled my eyes out when they put that baby in a freaking ammo box. Very small pets have better caskets than that. A shoebox lined with a soft cloth or satin. Jim Bob had the money to get a nice oak box made with a rose stems decorated on it. He could of gotten TLC to pay for it to get made asap, they would of paid for it because it was an episode.
But there was some outrage that they would say that they would adopt with all of the high number of kids surrounding them when they said that while couples who were out in the audience were struggling to have kids on their own and on long waiting lists to adopt. Some got up and left.
The way it was said came across so awful. It was like, well, we want to have as many kids as possible and if we have to adopt, well, we are so superior and famous we can just snap our fingers and have a baby delivered to our door till the cows come home.
Just like ordering pizza.
Speaking of starting up your own Church - I read that a few years ago Chris Jenner founded a new Church in California. If I remember correctly then name of it had something to do with 'life changing'.

What PJ said. The young man could get a lien against Josh's house, future interviews (cause you know People magazine is stupid enough or in TLC's pockets deep enough to do a story on him and Anna in the future), any book deals, speaking engagements, etc. As far as having his life exposed in the tabloids, his name is now out there and I'm sure the reporters are calling his friends, business acquaintances, etc. Everyone has something in their life they are not proud of, but I'm sure his mistakes, bad behavior, or whatever is nowhere near the level of JoshieBoy's. But his privacy has been invaded, he's lost at least one job/gig and I think he's got a good case.
You know what's weird about Milo disappearing? None of the usual people asking her where she is/if she's OK. It's as if she let them know ahead of time. I bet she/he has another account
Josh having the unmitigated arrogance to use another man's
picture as his own reminds me of TFW's "no never means no."
Josh was faced with an obstacle. In order to be a part of this
service, he had to provide a picture. But he is well known, so
placing a picture would get him into trouble. Did that deter
him from proceeding? Did it make him take a breath and say,
wow, what am I getting myself into? Hellz no -- he just stole
another man's "countenance" off the internet. Done and done.

White Organza 150 previous thread
I got what you were saying and agree
I come across a preview interview with Gil and Kelly Bates. They are so day and night difference with Jim Bob and Michelle. Not one sexual reference. Gil and Kelly seemed much more articulate. He wasn't dry humping her and kissing her on the couch and asking her if does it turn her own.
All they have in common is they each have a lot of kids. Also, they were having to pack to go somewhere and they didn't show the kids packing their bags, but the way they showed it, each child was responsible for their own packing and suitcase and they each took their own bags to the vehicle and loaded them up themselves.
We know how TFW packs. We know how the Duggars pack. They assigned Jinger? to be responsible for packing everything. That is so wrong. Those Duggar boys don't do blank around that house to help those single teen moms out.
Josh was faced with an obstacle. In order to be a part of this
service, he had to provide a picture. But he is well known, so
placing a picture would get him into trouble. Did that deter
him from proceeding? Did it make him take a breath and say,
wow, what am I getting myself into? Hellz no -- he just stole
another man's "countenance" off the internet. Done and done.

He has the hubris of some of the catfish that Nev has profiled. They don't care or think about other people's lives when they swipe images, stories, and other things from other people. It's all about them and their end game. Even when confronted with their misdeeds many of them continue to minimize or excuse this behavior. Some people have felt very violated by having their identity stolen like that. They don't care.
I woke up thinking about JoshieBoy's email? address--the joesmithson or whatever. At first I thought it was a word play on JimBoob's or JoshieBoy's middle name or the movie Mr. Smith Goes to Washington, but couldn't find the connection. It's could be a word play on Joseph Smith, the polygamous founder of the Mormon church (not that JoshieBoy would convert, but I do think he feels entitled enough to have sex with many women besides Anna) OR JimBoob was up to no good as 'Joe Smith' during his time in the Arkansas House and JoshieBoy is following in his footsteps.

That's what makes Josh so dangerous and very unlikely to be rehabilitated, he seems to have absolutely no conscience.
He only confesses after he's been caught and even then he deflects, rationalizes and justifies. I mean seriously, blaming Satan?
Flimsy, you make a great point. Even when faced with a deterrent, Josh does not take the opportunity to reflect on his actions (maybe it was God trying to speak to him) instead he gives Satan a high five and googles "pics of random guy".
Nope, if Josh is at all repentant it is not about his actions...it's purely about getting caught. He's got all the markings of a narcissistic sociopath.
re the pic
apparently it was the third one when you google random guy pix
so random guy put it out there to be used,
reminds me of fly-fishing, put it out ther long enough some fish will swallow

franky, I really don't think "random guy" put himself out there as "random guy". Somehow, Google just grabbed his photo and that's how it was categorized.
If you put your photo online, (say on Facebook or on a chat somewhere, say as an avatar,) wearing a straw hat with a flower and someone googles "woman with straw hat with a flower", your photo may come up. Heck, maybe you didn't even post the picture, maybe a friend tagged you. It doesn't mean you put it out there to be used.
I am absolutely flabbergasted that we are watching a group of people who tried to destroy others lives and it backfired and bit them hard. In the end they are the ones who were destroyed.
The Duggar brand is destroyed, I agree, foxy.
How long before the Go Fund Me account?
Actually, foxy, what's rich is that it all started with 2 lesbians kissing in front of the their compound!
I am absolutely flabbergasted that we are watching a group of people who tried to destroy others lives and it backfired and bit them hard. In the end they are the ones who were destroyed.
$$$$
If you believe in signs from God I would take this as a sign the lesbians won and the Duggars are bad people.
I do not believe just because you post your photo on the internet it's fair game for someone to steal it and call it their own. You wouldn't steal someone's yearbook photo. The internet does not excuse *stealing* and misappropriation, be it someone's music, photo, artwork or anything else.
How hard has Josh made it for his younger brothers to be trusted by women during courtship and marriage? At the very least the fathers of any prospective girlfriends may be dubious about all the Mr. J. Duggar's authentic selves, and the women themselves might decide it is too great a heartache to risk courting. All those Duggar boys were raised under the same system of repression, and it's not a big leap to think they are more alike than different.
admin 76 -- wouldn't this be a case of stolen identity as well as defamation? This isn't just someone using another picture, posting it as their avatar. The photo accompanies an account, with description of the person, passing the picture off as his own. Josh represented this to be himself, along with personal information. What resulted was this Matthew person getting caught up in a scandal. I certainly would think that there is basis for a lawsuit there.

Admin (#76), and the worst part is that Josh took that picture for an
undeniably unsavory purpose: to try to attract women to have sex
with him outside of his marriage. Creepy and dishonest, with a
large helping of hypocrisy, as it was stolen off the internet by the
wagging fingers of Larry Lapel Pin, who was paying his bills by
vilifying groups who didn't believe as he did.
As a wise person once said, "You can't get blood from a stone." Josh has no money.

Perhaps not. But Pa Duggar does, and I would think that he'd take care of it for his almost 30 man-child.

I was wondering the same thing. Is it identify theft?
I'm not sure because he only used the picture but surely it's more serious than grabbing a picture and passing it off as your own. Milo and the parrot pic come to mind.
Josh created an actual account and a virtual presence using this guy's picture. That's pretty shady and if it isn't illegal, I think it should be.
We don't know where this pic actually came from and it stands to reason that he never expected or intended for it to be used by anyone in this way.
I understand franky's point too, it's why I stopped using facebook a long time ago. The risks are there and it's a kind of poster beware landscape.
Then again, many companies require employees to create and maintain a virtual presence merely by virtue of modern business practices.
That's how business competes these days. Employees most certainly should have an expectation that some douche bag isn't going to download their pic and pass it off as himself.
Moreover, I think there should be some recourse if it does happen.

He could always claim it was a dummy account his office set up to do investigative work on this site to see if there were any illegal (prostitution) or child porn things going on.
Ashley Madison has mainly men clients, therefore, in order to satisfy them they have to hire prostitutes. This is well known. Most the active female "clients" are paid to be responsive to the men.

I"m not naive, but how is this well-known?
Ashton certainly knew what he wanted and wasn't afraid to spell it out (according to the report).
Oh, My-Lant-A!!! I went to google images and typed in random guy and the DJ guy's picture that Josh STOLE is the 3rd picture that comes up.
What an arrogant jerk he is!
Well, he admitted it....
http://www.wftv.com/news/news/local/state-attorney-jeff-ashton-hold-press-conference-a/nnPq4/
Seems Jeff Ashton took a page from Bill Clinton and didn't inhale.
He seems to lack contrition all together.
If he really just set up an account and didn't act on it, then, well, ok. But, if he hooked up it will come out.
Time will tell.
BTW, is/was her a public servant? Because, using the office computer on tax payer's time will not sit well and he should just resign before the public outrage becomes deafening.
I always thought Ashton was kind of cute, for an older, mature man.
According to the press conference, he's not stepping down and it's back to work as usual. Now all of Florida and the rest of the country knows that the prosecutor wants some tongue and fingers action and sex toys, and that his wife doesn't excite him anymore. Nice..
Apparently he didn't address the report that he may have used the site on company time...
"Further research revealed a subtle yet shocking fact. The database revealed that both Jeff Ashton Ashley Madison accounts were accessed from IP address “66.193.236.254”. Research by our technical expert using publicly available Reverse DNS services has revealed that this IP address tracks back to “host-204.ocnjcc.org” and the Ninth Judicial Circuit internal network! In other words, it appears Jeff Ashton was using the cheating website on taxpayer's time, on a state-owned machine and computer network at the Ninth Judicial Circuit State Attorney’s Office!"
How much money did Ashton spend on this unconsumated "curiosity".
Seems unlikely that he would drop 4-figures and not get something out of it.
There's more, he's just being his arrogant self.
Not for nothing, but I think his arrogance is the reason that Casey Anthony is a free woman today.

Nothing to see here folks, just a little mistake. It's back to work as usual. Time to move on.
I would expect this "mistake" from Josh, who is dumber than a box of rocks. But for a state prosecutor to be stupid enough to use his real name and address and just excuse it as "curiosity" just boggles the mind. He knows, or he should know, that no site is secure and hacking is not an impossibility. But he never acted on it and it's not a criminal offense, so what the heck, why not play around with it?

He said in his statement that he used his personal computer on a wifi network that is available to anyone who enters the facility.
I'm not giving him a pass, but if he's like a lot of people, he logs way more hours than he's paid for and likely works long and hard into the night and on weekends. I don't think you can go after him for the "taxpayers time".
Another thing I'm noticing in the past couple of years, and I'm fully in favour of it, is the wives of these guys not appearing with them for their public flogging. Too often politicians wives get trotted out and made to accompany their husbands on stage as if they "stand by their man". I'm glad the tide has turned on that practice.

Good point, still, I expect people will call for him to resign.
It's the epitome of abusive assholery for any cheating spouse to have their husband or wife stand by them and have to tolerate all of the pitying glances as they do their best Jimmy Swaggart.
This prosecutor thing will be very interesting. A prosecutor is definitely held to a higher standard, to uphold the law to a T. The problem is, he wasn't breaking the law. Unless he was prosecuting people for affairs, this seems like a non-starter. It doesn't look like he's intending to resign or anything like that. The big problem with Josh is that he has been out there making moral judgments about people's lifestyles even though legal, and that is very different than a prosecutor asking people to uphold the law.
I was going to post even before I heard about the prosecutor that I wonder how much traction most other people on this site will get. Like let's say some random celeb like Matt Damon was found on it. So what? Will the public really care that much? It's not like he goes around condemning others for breaking down families.
It probably wouldn't be a wise idea for the prosecutor to say it was a dummy account to look for child porn. That's dicey and he could get into issues of entrapment. Plus he's a prosecutor, not a cop. The cops bring HIM their investigations. He's not supposed to set up his own ring usually, not on his own.
The work-time thing seems like a non-starter too. I'm betting this guy works 80 hour weeks, as a leader prosecutor. He has a very demanding job. Most attorneys don't work 40 hour weeks, they work much more, and with that comes a mix of personal emails and calls from time to time. Any workplace I've been in even spells out in the manual that work computers, cell phones, and so on may be used for personal matters, within reason of course. People understand people have families, kids, other things going on they need to attend to, and employees are happier when they feel like they're not required to completely shut down their personal lives during long hours at work.
It's not unusual for salaried attorneys to combine personal matters and work matters as all one big thing. It's not a big deal, and perfectly acceptable as long as you log the long hours required to complete the assignments. If you were punching in, which most attorneys don't, that's a whole other story. Many attorneys clock "billable hours." That means they are ONLY getting paid for
We do something similar to that actually. Time sheets with each case and how much time spent and what you did, to the tenth of an hour. It may be a pain, but it encourages accountability. It is not unusual at all to see an attorney with time sheets adding up to 50 hours a week, but spending 60 in the office. Those extra, non billable hours are lunches, breaks, and a few personal matters. I wouldn't be surprised if their prosecutors office logs cases the same way. There is even a couple popular computer programs out there designed for public sector attorneys that allows you to easily log your work time, he may very well use one of those programs. Not a big deal.
Not for nothing, but I think his arrogance is the reason that Casey Anthony is a free woman today.
&&&&
That and the absolutely idiotic jury. God they were dumb as all get out.
He overreached on it. He went for the jugular, and there was no back up plan. He should have played it more conservative and that woman would be sitting behind bars right now.
But hindsight is 20-20, you make the best calls you can as a prosecutor and hope for the best. No justice for some is a sad part of the job you have to accept.
I listen to a lot of talk radio and one show did a series of reports on AM. how else could AM "guarantee" a hookup? Also, the women on AM are very good looking. Why would attractive women have to join a site to get laid? They are the bait used to get men to pay.
Like Josh Duggar, Jeff Ashton is "regretful". I'll bet they both are, after they were outed that is.

Yup, poor Anna, with 4 kids under 5 should have been swinging from the chandeliers for Josh. I'm sure that's why he cheated on her.
These people are nuts.
This idiot cited a "sexual revolution"! What is this, the 70's and key parties?
So this guy used his own laptop, his real name and address for the account? I would think that a prosecutor would be a bit more creative and not do something that prosaic.
Why would attractive women have to join a site to get laid? They are the bait used to get men to pay.

Why would a successful, attractive prosecutor have to go on a site to get laid? It certainly would seem that they could do quite well on their own.
In fact, why would anyone drop a few thousand just because they were curious and never intended to act on it? Why would they put their fantasies out there if they never wanted anything to happen?
If there is prostitution involved on this site, it will be uncovered sooner or later. Until it's proven to be true, I wouldn't believe radio talk or internet gossip as fact. It very well be, and if it is, it will be made public!
Well, I expect TFW to be back on Twitter any time now because school starts on Wednesday.
There is now a post on the Boycott TLC 19 Kids and Counting FB page which is of a twitter page of john (@touchguyy11) with EXPLICIT pictures/tweets with the same pic JoshieBoy used in his email account. I don't really understand how they are linking the twitter account to JoshieBoy except it has that same picture and activity on the account stopped a few days before the police reports were released.
WARNING!! There are explicit pictures of females if you decide to check it out.

I think the stats on that site speak to the fact that this is the male brain here, and something the typical female can't relate to.
Speculating here. I think they like the chase of it, the forbidden fruit, the you can look but you can't touch. That is exciting somehow. That may be all some men need to fulfill whatever it is they need, and then it's back to their normal life.
I remember someone here said, maybe Fido, if I am going to pay for the bike I want to actually ride it. Well yeah, I totally feel the same. I want to ride the bike, I see no point to having my bike just sit in the garage. But I think men aren't always like that. I think men sometimes just like to LOOK at the bike, even just photos of the bike, to be happy. Sometimes, even just the IDEA of the bike is enough for them! Literally and figuratively, they are like this with bikes AND women! Whereas a woman will say honey what is the point of forking over all that money on such a beautiful bike just to go out there look at it and maybe polish it? We don't get it.
Men are something.
Yup, poor Anna, with 4 kids under 5 should have been swinging from the chandeliers for Josh. I'm sure that's why he cheated on her.

With four children under the age of five, I'm sure that there were times Anna just didn't feel like doing it. According to the cult, women should submit to their husbands whenever and wherever. So, it was Anna' fault when Josh strayed.
I wonder if Michelle was always up for it and let Jim Boob do whatever he wanted, even if it was one day post delivery. When he unzipped, did she just jump for him and say, "how high," no matter how she felt?

Mid-life crisis? Just to prove they still have something that women will want?
Of course, in Josh's situation, it wouldn't hold true, but he most likely is the exception rather than the rule. What woman on this green earth would want to have an affair with him?
Yeah for the record, I think more than likely Josh was on this site for completely different reasons than the average mid life crisis man just wanting a little spice in his life. The more "normal" guys who aren't hurting anyone but their immediate family. There are many ways to hurt your family, that's just one of them, and it's not illegal.
I think Josh's problems go much much more deeper than that.

I would think after four kids going on five it becomes too hazardous for your lady parts to be swinging from anything much less a chandelier. Somebody like Michelle can probably barely cough without fear her uterus will just fall right on out.
Susan, is that Twitter account actually Josh's account? I'm confused. One of the posts says that the tweets stopped at the time the police report on Josh was released.
It's been discussed that according to the Duggar belief system,
that thinking of cheating is just as bad as cheating. But, come on,
if Josh did not have any actual sexual encounter with another
woman, wouldn't he be shouting that from the rooftops? These
people are not neophytes when it comes to the press (although
they are most certainly bumblers). This is a huge disaster, no
matter how you look at it. So if there was something to mitigate
it -- "I lusted in my heart, but thankfully restrained myself from
following through on those feelings" -- I think that'd be repeated
again and again in the statement.

Me too, pass the eye bleach, ok?
If that's Josh's twitter, he is a dirty, dirty boy.
The radio expose' was 5-days of interviews, including the women on the site. Not sure why this (prostitution) is so difficult to believe.

I don't think it's difficult to believe. I just think that people want proof before they take anything as gospel. I also think that people have become a lot more saavy about believing everything they see and hear, especially since what is so often published on internet tabloids as "exclusives." Sometimes they're right; other times it's just gossip.
If there were prostitution involved, a reputable source will come out with it and confirm it. I really don't think we've heard the last of this scandal.

Sorry, Tucker's Mom. I forgot to yell, "nike!"
I would think that if that Twitter account belongs to Josh, then the person whose profile picture he lifted really would have a case against him.
I can't imagine, though, that if it belongs to Josh that it wouldn't have been deleted as soon as this scandal surfaced.

=============
The women on the site were interviewed and they confirmed that the site paid them as prostitutes?
Sorry, Tucker's Mom. I forgot to yell, "nike!"
*****
Ha!
Yes fleecing. They were paid to show interest and to have sex with AM clients. The story was over a year ago and I can't find any links (been looking all day) .
If the women on this site are paid prostitutes, and the members pay for use of the site, would Josh and Ashton be guilty of soliciting a prostitute, even if they didn't act on it?
The internet has opened up a whole world of gray areas.

==============
Oh, so this wasn't just a recent thing since the hacking was made public? I'm surprised nothing about this has yet to come out.
The site was exposed as employing prostitutes and were paid by AM, but it was never shut down? It would be interesting if you could find the link. Do you remember who did the interviews and investigative work?
I haven't researched yet whether there is truth to the prostitution claims on that site but I have to say this. If it looks and acts like a duck it probably is.
I think men are much more wired to appreciate the intent of a site like this, and the proof is in the extremely disproportionate numbers of men vs. women on that site. I find it extremely hard to believe that they could easily come up with that many women who are wired to seek out an affair, much less ones that are all gorgeous models. Sure, certainly there are some women out there who are actively seeking an affair. But it's not common, and I tend to think women more sort of fall into affairs accidentally. It seems like if a woman is having an affair she will often say I didn't see it coming, I never thought it would happen, we just fell in love. It seems like it's usual someone they know. They don't necessarily sign up for a site and pay to find some stranger like a man would be more apt to do. That feeds into a common male fantasy, not a woman's (typical, anyway, there are of course exceptions to everything).
The whole thing is highly, highly suspicious as not just innocent, I'll say that.
Another interesting thing is the site is based in Canada. So we're talking about American law, Canadian law, and possibly even international law. With all that, who the heck knows what could happen.

The email associated with Joshes AM account is also associated with this Twitter account.
https://mobile.twitter.com/toughguyy11/tweets
-------------------------------
How would you know what email is associated with that twitter account? Just because the twitter account used the same picture that was on the OkCupid account, doesn't mean it's Josh's account.
The guy whose picture that is, did an interview with Gawker and this isn't the first time his picture has been used by others.
http://gawker.com/meet-the-innocent-bro-who-became-the-face-of-josh-dugga-1726006095
"But this isn’t the first time McCarthy’s photo has been used in Catfish-esque online dating profiles. Apparently, the same photo Josh purportedly used (along with several others of McCarthy’s) has popped up over the years on a number of fraudulent pages. According to McCarthy, “Even before this happened, random women have been like messaging me and adding me on Facebook, saying, like, ‘Hey, I just wanted to let you know that theres this other profile on that’s been talking to me for months now, and I thought something was up, so I Google image searched the image and found your profile. This person is using your pictures.’” McCarthy estimates that he’s received about two dozen of these sorts of messages total.
Though he used to be a model, all the swiped images were pulled from his personal Facebook (and uploaded around five or six years ago), and though McCarthy, who’s now 30, has no idea who took them initially, it’s not hard to see how someone like Josh Duggar might have stumbled upon them now. At some point in 2010, two photos were uploaded to a WordPress page called “Daddycatcher’s Realm.” The title of the post that likely sealed McCarthy’s fate: Random Guy from Facebook (4)."
I did a Google picture search, and that picture shows up on several twitter accounts and FB accounts. I doubt they're all Josh.
If the women on this site are paid prostitutes...

Hold on just a minute, I am not a paid prostitute! LOL, I know what you meant, it just struck me as funny.
Why subscribe to a porn site? Aren't there free ones out there?

Wow. There was someone like this profiled on catfish!! I think he was like a small time singer, so most people wouldn't recognize him enough to make them question someone using their photo improperly. For whatever the reason, he has been the victim of dozens of catfish stealing his photos and pretending to be him to impress someone else.
So weird!
Doesn't Megyn return from her vacation tomorrow? Will she blame Ashley Madison for luring poor Joshie to the site? Is there an interview forthcoming with Anna or Ma and Pa?

Well as I said earlier, filming is over and the kids are ready to go back to school so she's back on Twitter. What I don't get is if they're just going to put the leftovers in the fridge rather than the freezer, why label them. You can just look through the container or pop the top to see what's inside.
My FB account is private and I've been known to post a bully picture or two. I googled "random bulldog" images and "bulldog in pool" images and not one of my guy's pictures came up.
Okay I just sat down tonight to read the blog and now I wanna know just WHAT IN THE HELL IS GOING ON here?! Who is John and why am I looking at porn?
Geebus I can't leave the veranda for one day only to come back and find THIS is what you're up to?!!
Who took my pearls and my fainting couch?!
Looks like the Duggars revised Josh's statement again. I just took a look and now it reads exactly as it is posted at the top of this thread, with the pornography and the reference to when he was 14-15 put back in.
Guess they figured they couldn't hide the fact that they revised it 3 times, so they went back to the second revision. They did leave out the part about Satan that was in the first statement.
Ashley Madison was sued in 2011 by a former employee who claimed she suffered repetitive strain injury from the typing involved in creating thousands of fake profiles.
You can read about it by googling, on the Ashley Madison Wikipedia site, or in the following article. The article is mostly about the legal maneuver she is using to make a large damage claim, but it also has a synopsis of what she said she did.

This is snark, but what made Anna mad- that Josh was cheating or had a credit card. LOL
( shades of Kate "you used a CREDIT CARD??????)
Lol
AuntieAnn (#158), so sorry to hear you were traumatized!
I didn't click on any of the links, as I have a sensitive stomach.
And it's bad enough having to look at Dough Boy's smug mug
at the top of this post. I'm trying to piece together what it's all
about, too. But to me, at this point, there is nothing that could
be revealed about this dude that would shock me. Not, you
should pardon the expression, a blessed thing.
"...it reads exactly as it is posted at the top of this thread, with the pornography and the reference to when he was 14-15 put back in."
=============
Or perhaps their crack crisis management team figured they wouldn't get paid, so the team put it back the way it originally was!
"They did leave out the part about Satan that was in the first statement."
==================
I have to stop drinking the Rumspringa. A real quick read, and I read this as "Satan that hid in the basement." Geez.
AuntieAnn asked, "why am I looking at porn?"

Because Stephanie isn't available to meet up with you in person?
Didn't you hear "Over and Out" yelling 'nike'?

You work for free, without fringe benefits or paid vacation? We'll have to see what we can do about that and give you more than minimum wage!

No wonder Auntie needs a fainting couch!

Bindi Irwin will be on DWTS.
Surprise ! (Not)
Topic for a new thread maybe: Bindi Irwin will bee on next edition of Dancing with the stars! Just announced on Good Morning America today! She is seventeen now and looks so much like her father.
Jillgee (#170), cue M & C's private dance lessons in 3, 2, 1.
This will probably merit a congrats tweet to Bindi and Terri
from TFW, saying she loves and misses them, and would
love to visit them when they're in LA (preferably without
her 8 meal tickets).

Let's see. Kate will grift tickets, fly M+C out, get their mugs on tv and lobby to get one or both of them on the show in the next year or two.
Bindi's life is showbiz. She never had a chance to live as a private citizen.

Going back to early June, I looked again at an interview with Hunter Frederick a Christian PR expert who publicly stated he turned down the Duggar family as clients after the initial news of the molestation broke.
Frederick stated that Josh should not have made a statement on Facebook only and hidden from the public eye, but instead should have done an interview right away. He said that Josh had to have some kind of penalty.
"There need to be repercussions for his actions. Even Christians would agree, just because you are forgiven does not mean you get 'a free pass'.""
Bindi Irwin will be on DWTS.
========
I agree that this will be the year that TFW tries to grift a trip to LA to watch a taping. She may even go on her own dime just to get her mug on TV and give her sage advice to Bindi. She's oblivious to the fact that she wasn't one of the most popular contestants with the staff.

Worse, Josh let his victims and parents face the music FOR him.
I mean, what a coward.
Jim Boob knew darn well that he was hiding a MASSIVE secret bombshell the whole time, thinking no one would ever find out his son molested his daughters.
And when we did find out, how DARE we make a big deal over it? They dealt with it (whatever that means) and we should all look away and move on.
Nothing to see here. Keep the cameras rolling.
Josh allowed so many people to stand up for him and support him, putting so much on the line. He KNEW he was living a HUGE lie, but hid while others took the heat off of him.
Again, Josh issued a mea culpa and is in hiding.
He should just rip the bandaid off. No matter when he decides to surface, there will be a media shit storm. Just get it over with.
If the Facebook thing is true, Josh would have had a FB account, an OKCupid account, and two(!) Ashley Madison accounts.
He must have been one busy boy. No wonder he spent all of his time on the computer.
Didn't he have a private room when he lived at home, and spent a lot of time in there on the computer? And the parents never questioned it? In light of everything they knew from when he was a 14-15 yo, as a parent I'd be monitoring the h*ll out of what the kid was doing on the computer.
This is far, far beyond innocent curiosity.
Faking an id in order to use the accounts is also far beyond innocent curiosity. Far beyond.
We're talking a serious addiction here. Sounds like some pretty serious psychological problems, probably more than one.
Which, of course, are all solved by working on renovating a building someplace. Not.

NJGal51 (#176), I can just picture TFW sitting in the DWTS
audience, poking and dabbing her dry eyes, hoping someone
interviews her afterwards so she can say she was crying because
she knew Bindi since she was a little girl, and how proud she is
of her, and how sad it is that poor Steve Irwin didn't live to see
his daughter grow up. She's as sentimental as a sweat sock.

That's right. Plus like I said, the internet is no different than real life. Let's say at your old high school a photo of you is hanging next to an old school trophy of the soccer team when you won your state championship that year. You wouldn't say anyone has the right to open up that cabinet, steal it and use the photo to say it's THEM. Well, the same can be said if you post the same photo on FB. Regardless your privacy settings, that is YOUR image, and no one has the right to steal it and call it their own. You put it out there is not an excuse in real life and it's not an excuse on the internet.
OT, but I just read that Bindi Irwin is going to be on the upcoming season of Dancing with the Stars.
Question for admin re California entertainment law. Bindi is seventeen. Is a legal guardian or designate required to be present when she is filming, if she is under eighteen?
We loved to watch The Crocodile Hunter. I remember when Bindi was little and Steve had her on tv with him and singing and dancing with her "croc men". She really was a natural on camera like her father. They had fun together, and it was fun to watch.
Interesting that somehow, Bindi is leaked as a cast member on DWTS.
Very clever, Terri.

She's required to have a legal guardian as well as a set teacher, and a certain amount of hours of schoolwork are required for every hour she works.
Did TLC air the sexual abuse documentary last night and are there any reviews out?
Back to the Gosselins for the moment: did anyone think the Tupperware photos were weird? Not really funny and pretty bad printing for an 11 year old, sorry to say.
I am as disgusted as all of you by the Dugger stuff.Been too busy to comment much but how horrible for so many people involved.
I start puppy obedience classes tonight and not a moment too soon!

No leaks here....straight to GMA...first one announced, of course.
The documentary about sex abuse is not supposed to air until Sunday August 30th.
However in a statement after this latest scandal TLC said something to the effect of they are done with the Duggars. Lol.
I wonder if that includes the documentary. I wouldn't be surprised.
I saw it mentioned here a couple of times over the weekend that the Duggar special was on last night. Was it? Anyone see it?

It was bad enough during the Kelly interview, but now?
Holy shit on toast they are like Three Mile Island toxic.

That's what I'm curious to see.
Admin, just as I read your post about the special, an ad for it popped up on TLC. Unless they are editing out the Duggar sisters, it looks like the network is not q-u-i-t-e finished airing them yet. Almost though.
It seems the Keller parents (Anna's parents) are wacky also. They adhere to Gothard's teachings. Anna's older brother Daniel and his wife adopted a child because they were having trouble conceiving. He is now estranged from them because Gothard said the child carries the sins of the father (Joshie?). Susanna had a child out of wed lock, and is disowned. I am not sure of the others. There are 5 girls and 3 boys. Her parents do not want her to divorce because it would make THEM look bad.
She's required to have a legal guardian as well as a set teacher, and a certain amount of hours of schoolwork are required for every hour she works.
========
Will she still be required to have the set teacher if Austraila is on their summer break since their summer is our winter?

Oh, I read it was leaked. Was the whole cast announced?
I read about who is speculated to be on, and that list ranged from yawn, to who??

I have no idea whether or not BIndi Irwin can dance, but knowing
how hard she's been worked all her life, I suspect she will do quite
well just based on her ability to take direction. Not like a certain
sullen PA woman whom a professional "didn't know how" to teach.
I didn't see that Post It TFW tweeted about, but I doubt she was
trying to praise one of her children (certainly not one of the icky
boys). I think it was her way of reminding us that she's just
regular folks, packing up leftovers and getting ready for the
new week. And the notes are probably there for the helpers
who warm up lunch and/or dinner while TFW is off "working." #LifeOfAMillionaireMom
