Josh Duggar has been placed in solitary confinement for “safety reasons” after being found guilty of child porn charges, In Touch can confirm.
“He has his own small cell and is away from other criminals,” a source tells In Touch in an update on Friday, December 10, one day after a judge convicted the disgraced 19 Kids and Counting alum, 33, of two counts of possessing and receiving CSAM [Child Sexual Abuse Material] following his arrest in April 2021.
An attorney for Josh did not immediately respond to In Touch’s request for comment, and a staff member for the Washington County Correctional Facility could neither confirm nor deny Josh being placed in solitary confinement.
Josh is going to be held at the Washington County Correctional Facility until he receives his sentence, although a court date has not yet been set. The former car salesman faces up to 20 years behind bars and $250,000 in fines for each count.
The Sun was first to report news of Josh being in solitary confinement.
