The silence surrounding the Duggar compound in Tontitown, Arkansas, has finally broken following the latest legal crisis to hit the family. In the week following the arrest, Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar had remained notably silent as their son Joseph Duggar faced serious allegations of child molestation.
The family, once celebrated for their conservative Christian values on '19 Kids and Counting', is once again at the centre of a criminal investigation. Joseph, 31, was taken into custody last week, attracting significant media attention while the couple initially remained silent.
