Overview
- Kendra Duggar, 27, was arrested in Arkansas on four counts of second-degree endangering the welfare of a minor and four counts of second-degree false imprisonment, then released Friday on a $1,470 bond.
- Tontitown police say both Kendra and Joseph Duggar face identical misdemeanor counts in Arkansas, call the probe active, and decline further details to protect minors.
- Joseph Duggar, 31, was arrested on a Bay County, Florida, affidavit alleging lewd and lascivious conduct involving a child under 12 during a 2020 family vacation in Panama City Beach.
- An arrest affidavit says Joseph confessed to the victim’s father and, in a recorded call requested by investigators, admitted his actions and said his intentions were not pure.
- Joseph waived his right to an extradition hearing in Arkansas and is awaiting transfer to Bay County; officials say Arkansas charges are being handled separately from the Florida case, with Kendra due in court March 23 and April 29.
