SAD HOLIDAY

Jim Bob & Michelle Duggar’s kids prepare Thanksgiving dinner days before disgraced son Josh’s child pornography trial

THE DUGGAR kids are carrying on with the holidays as usual as they prepare Thanksgiving dinner days before their brother Josh's trial date.

Eldest Duggar sibling, Josh, 33, is currently on home confinement until his trial on November 30, and is unable to spend the holidays with his underage siblings, nieces and nephews amid his child pornography charges.

One member that will not be at the Thanksgiving dinner table this year is Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar's first born, Josh.

He is currently living with third party custodians LaCount and Maria Reber, who are longtime friends of the family as he awaits his upcoming trial.

CHILD PORNOGRAPHY CHARGES

Back in April, Josh pleaded not guilty to two child pornography counts.

He was accused of possessing and receiving images of child pornography.

Homeland Security special agent Gerald Faulkner said at a May court hearing that downloads made from a specific file were "in the top five of the worst of the worst that I've ever had to examine".

Josh's trial could last until December 3. 

The Sun exclusively revealed from court papers that the state plans to use his past molestation scandal, which he was never charged for, at the trial and is asking the court for permission.

In 2015, a police report was published that revealed his dad Jim Bob confessed to local authorities that Josh fondled the breasts and genitals of five young girls while they were asleep in the family home back in 2006

The state plans to use the police report at trial, as it shows his alleged “sexual interest in young girls.”

Josh fought back against prosecution being able to mention the molestation scandal, as a judge will rule on the argument next week.

Recently, at a hearing in federal court, the prosecution mentioned Josh's father would be one of their proposed witnesses.

SUPPORTIVE WIFE

Although the Counting On alum is unable to be near his family members who are minors, he has unlimited access to his children with wife Anna present.

Anna - who welcomed their seventh child this month - was accused of "smirking" as she left court with Josh back in September.

The Sun exclusively revealed that she "is convinced Josh will soon be free and able to raise his kids."

A source has since told The Sun exclusively that Anna is "extremely confident" her husband will not be jailed.

The insider said: "Anna is convinced Josh will be a free man soon and be able to raise their kids, she should be worried she's going to be alone with seven children, but she isn't."
