Supreme Court Denies Josh Duggar's Appeal in Child Pornography Case
Former reality TV star's conviction and 12-year prison sentence upheld despite claims of alternative perpetrator.
- Josh Duggar was convicted in 2021 for receiving and possessing child pornography, leading to a 12.5-year sentence.
- The Supreme Court's decision follows previous rejections by lower courts, which found no merit in Duggar's defense.
- Duggar's legal team argued that a former employee with a prior sex offense conviction could have been responsible.
- The case has drawn significant attention due to Duggar's history of sexual misconduct and his family's public profile.
- Duggar will remain in prison until at least 2032 and will face 20 years of supervised release upon completion of his sentence.
