US vs. Josh Duggar *GUILTY*

Former "19 Kids and Counting" star Josh Duggar is set to stand trial on Tuesday for child pornography charges. After years of appearing in the reality show, Duggar made headlines in 2015 when news broke that he reportedly molested a number of young girls, including his sisters. Now, he will face a judge on charges brought against him in April after allegedly possessing images of young children.

Duggar, 33, was arrested in Arkansas in late April. U.S. Marshals "assisted" in the arrest. He is facing two counts of downloading and possessing child pornography. He has pleaded not guilty.

If convicted on all counts, Duggar faces up to 20 years in prison and fines of up to $250,000 on each count. Fines could total $500,000.

Seems a strange one to even go to trial. Most similar cases don't. You either had it or you didn't. Glad the jury came back so quickly. Not difficult to figure out, I think, though admittedly I didn't watch the trial.
