The daughters of Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar shared their reactions and thoughts to Fox News reporter Megyn Kelly admist tears about the release of the police report that named both of them as victims of their brother Josh.
Their interview aired on Saturday, June 5, and showed that Jessa and Jill are very distraught over how this story has transpired. They spent most of the time blaming the tabloids for being “revictimized,” and stated that all of this was already dealt with in the past.
For those who may not have heard the story, a police report was released two weeks ago which stated that Josh Duggar had allegedly molested five young girls when he was 14 years old. The police report went on to say that four out of the five young girls were his sisters. Josh Duggar was not charged in the case since the statute of limitations had expired.
Since the report was released, Josh Duggar resigned from his job at the Family Research Council and has issued a public apology for his actions. TLC has taken the Duggar’s show, 19 Kids and Counting, off the air and the fate of their show is yet to be determined.
Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar were also interviewed by Fox News reporter Megyn Kelly and focused on their belief that the police report was released illegally. They stated that Josh Duggar and all of his victims received professional counseling after the incident happened.
