Overview
- Tontitown police say Joseph, 31, and Kendra, 27, each face four counts of second‑degree endangering the welfare of a minor and four counts of second‑degree false imprisonment.
- Kendra was arrested Friday, booked in Washington County, Arkansas, and released on a $1,470 bond; she is scheduled to appear in court on March 23 and April 29.
- Joseph waived extradition in a Washington County hearing, and Bay County, Florida, has up to 30 days to take custody; he remains in the Washington County Detention Center.
- A Bay County arrest affidavit alleges a then‑9‑year‑old reported inappropriate touching during a 2020 Panama City Beach trip, and investigators say Joseph admitted the conduct to the child’s father and to detectives.
- Arkansas authorities describe their case as separate from the Florida charge and say the investigation continues with limited public details to protect those involved.
