Amy, 35, has continued criticizing Anna Duggar for standing by her husband Josh, Amy's family member, amid of his guilty verdict and upcoming child pornography sentencing.
She said in a Saturday, which she captioned, in part, #toxic: "I think it's so incredibly sad that I have to do this post, but let me tell you something.
"Anna, I love you - I have loved you since day one you entered our family.
"But you are showing women all over the world that follow you that it is okay to have an abuser in your home.

"Around your beautiful children... you're showing everyone it's okay to cheat, it's okay to use me as a ragdoll, it's okay.
"Have more self-respect than that. ... Hello?" Amy added as she held the camera with her brunette hair down, barely able to contain her anger.
"It breaks my heart that he did that to you.
"It breaks my heart that you're sitting there allowing your kids to want 'daddy home.'"

"The 'daddy' is not safe, he's not a safe person.
"He deserves to be locked up. He deserves to be away from your kids, and you deserve better."

"But you're choosing this. ... To be okay in a 'loving faithful marriage that is a sham, and it's really sad.
"I'm gonna use my page to show them that it's not," she concluded.
One user replied: "GO AMY!"
Amy is the only child of Terry Jordan and Deanna Duggar, whose brother, Jim Bob Duggar, shares 19 children with his wife Michelle.
'HE IS DISGUSTING'
This is not the first time Josh's cousin Amy has spoken out.
She earlier wrote to Instagram she hopes the former TV star gets the maximum sentence.
"Please do not send me the graphic/sick details of Josh Duggar's case.
"Honestly I have to protect my mind and my heart from hearing/reading such disgusting material.
"Please just pray that Josh Duggar will be given the ultimate sentence. 20 plus years."
'SHELL OF A WOMAN'
Josh, 34, was found guilty of possessing and receiving child pornography on December 9 and will be sentenced for the crimes on May 25.
Wife Anna stood by him throughout the grueling trial, and a source claimed she has no plans to leave him due to their religious beliefs.
“Anna is a shell of a woman at the moment, but she is choosing to stay with Josh. They will not be getting a divorce," an insider exclusively told The Sun.
“She will visit him when she’s allowed, as she still firmly believes he’s innocent and it was all a set-up."
While prosecutors are demanding Judge Timothy L. Brooks sentence the disgraced star to 20 years in prison, Josh’s legal team is begging for just five years behind bars.
The Sun can exclusively reveal Anna, 33, and mother-of-19 Michelle, 55, were the only immediate family members to write letters to the judge - Anna and mom Michelle also begged the judge for a more lenient sentence.
In Anna’s letter, she describes her husband of 13 years and father of her seven children as “considerate, respectful, quick to forgive, patient and genuinely the kindest person.”
'PATTERN OF BEHAVIOR'
Mom Michelle said in her aforementioned letter that Josh has “friends and family who love and support him in his abilities to succeed as a husband, father and business owner, and man both now and in the future!”
Other letters include Anna’s father and family, Duggar neighbors, LaCount Reber, who allowed Josh to stay in his home while on house arrest, a pastor and more.
But Josh’s father and siblings didn’t write letters to the judge, despite many attending the trial in support of their older brother.
While arguing for Josh to receive the maximum sentence, the government brought up when Josh molested minor females in the family home when he was a teenager.
The court papers claimed: “This Court is now presented with an offender who has a history of sexually abusing minors, who has not received any treatment or therapy for this conduct to speak of, who appears unlikely to ever seek out or meaningfully participate in treatment or therapy to address this conduct, and who continues to deny any responsibility for his past or present crimes.
“There is simply no indication that Duggar will ever take the steps necessary to change this pattern of behavior and address his predilection for minor females.
“Given these circumstances, this Court should be particularly mindful in crafting its sentence of the likelihood that Duggar reoffends upon his release from incarceration and what his reoffending conduct will entail.”
