It was indeed a very tragic moment for LPBW stars and fans when Jacob Roloff came forward with his allegation. As per him, a senior producer Chris Cardamone abused him during the time he starred in the reality show. Moreover, IMDb mentions that the producer was a part of the TV network till 2019.

LPBW: Chris Cardamone Served Jail Time! Booked For Abusing Yet Another Minor
Once Jacob Roloff made his claims, his abuser’s shocking criminal history came into the limelight. It turns out, Chris Cardamone served jail time worth 73 days back in 2008. As per some details by Public Information Officer from Santa Clara, the arrest and booking took place at the main jail located in San Jose. Moreover, the charge was of cruelty with “possible injury” or “death” and 2 counts of “lewd” and “lascivious” acts with force with a child under 14 years.
However, in 2010 a “plea deal” was made that the felon accepted. Most of his charges got dropped while he was under supervision. This happened for four years during his probation period. Along with this, he also had to maintain “full-time employment” and submit chemical testing and person or property search. However, he has not been associating with TLC since then. Therefore, the last show he produced came to an end in 2019. Keep reading more such LPBW updates on TV Season & Spoilers.
