Josh was also claimed to molest her sisters and a babysitter of the house. Jinger writes in her book, “My brain hadn’t quite caught up to the reality of what had happened in a few short hours.” She went on to explain the scenario of how her father gathered everyone to explain the situation.
Jinger quotes the trail to be the “worst” one of the family. The Sun reports Duggar to have long dealt with the case. However, it was once again brought up to public notice in 2015. Jinger writes, “I felt shell-shocked as if a bomb had exploded, I moved in a daze, living in a nightmare that I wished with all my heart wasn’t real.” Facing the same scenario all over again was not easy for the family to cope up with.

Jinger shared to have been disturbed ever since knowing about Josh’s arrest. The star also shared about Josh’s arrest on her Instagram. Jinger wants the case to follow the legal procedure and bring the truth out on the floor.
