Josh Duggar child porn trial: Past molestation allegations allowed, judge rules
FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. - Jurors in former reality TV star Josh Duggar's trial on child pornography charges can hear evidence that he admitted to molesting four girls nearly 20 years ago, a federal judge ruled Wednesday.U.S. District Judge Timothy Brooks rejected a motion by Duggar's attorneys to prevent the evidence from being heard as his child pornography trial began.Duggar, who appeared in TLC’s "19 Kids and Counting," was charged in April with two counts of downloading and possessing child pornography.Prosecutors want the jury to hear testimony from a Duggar family friend who testified in a pre-trial hearing Monday that Duggar told her in 2003 that he molested four girls.
