I think many are more bothered, by the Duggar parents covering up their son's crimes, from what I've read on social media.
I don't really know so much about this, so this post, it isn't verifiable as accurate. I just logged onto Facebook, and there were all these posts about it. There's an accusation, that the parents didn't bring Josh to the police, until after the statute of limitations ran out. I don't know, if that's true? What I was read, was that Oprah was going to interview the family, in 2006. They received an email, warning them that Josh had sexually molested girls, multiple times. The show cancelled the interview, and forwarded the email to a hotline. That prompted the police investigation. They eventually went and talked to an Arkansas Police Trouper, who was a friend of the family's, who didn't follow the procedures, for reporting the incident. That trouper is in prison, for 56 years, for his own child inappropriate contentography convictions.
I don't know. He was young, yes. Certainly old enough, to know that fondling breasts, penetrating his sister's genitals, whilst they were sleeping, was terribly wrong.
I do think, if this had been a gay or lesbian public figure, who committed the exact same crime, at the same age many in the United States would be far less forgiving.
