On 21st May 2015, the magazine ''In Touch Weekly'' reported that Duggar's father Jim Bob Duggar had informed the Arkansas State Police that Duggar had molested five underage girls while he was a teenager. The police report, which was released to the public under the Freedom of Information Act of 1966, indicated that four of the five molestation victims were Duggar's sisters, who had been touched on the breasts and genitals by Duggar while they were sleeping. It was also revealed that in 2003, Duggar had admitted to his parents that he had inappropriately touched a babysitter, groped one of his younger sisters when she was sitting on his lap and cornered one of his sisters in a laundry room so he could sexually assault her. As a result, his parents had sent him to a counselling facility in Arkansas before having State Trooper [[Jim Hutchens]], who was later convicted of possessing ~~[[Child Pornography]]~~, give him a "stern talk". He had also allegedly been investigated for the abuse in 2006, but ultimately no charges were filed due to the Statute of Limitations. After the report was published, Duggar publicly apologised and resigned from FRC Action.

On April 29, 2021, a few days after his wife announced her pregnancy with a seventh child, Josh Duggar was arrested for possessing child pornography. ~~If he is convicted~~, ~~he could face up to 20 years in prison~~. ~~If he is granted bail~~, ~~he will have to live in a house with no minors and will not be able~~ to have ~~access to~~ the ~~internet or firearms~~. ~~He will also have~~ to ~~wear an ankle monitor and will not be able to leave~~ the ~~home without permission~~. ~~His trial commenced on November 30, 2021~~.

On April 29, 2021, a few days after his wife announced her pregnancy with a seventh child, Josh Duggar was arrested for possessing child pornography. A large number of pornographic images and videos of children were found on Duggar's hard drive, including [[Peter Scully]]'s infamous [[Snuff Film|snuff film]] ''Daisy's Destruction''. His trial commenced on November 30, 2021. His defence argued that the images had been placed on his computer by somebody else, calling an expert witness who testified that it was hypothetically possible for somebody else to have remotely placed the images on Duggar's computer. Under cross-examination, the witness admitted to having mislead the court about the extent of her training in computer studies. Testimony was also heard about Duggar's previous molestation controversy.

On December 9, 2021, Duggar was convicted on all counts. He now faces up to 20 years in prison.
