Josh Duggar's Prison Sentence Isn't The Family's Only Trouble With The Law

While Josh Duggar languished in jail awaiting sentencing, the rest of his family was outside firefighting, extinguishing legal trouble after legal trouble. KNWA reported that Homeland Security Investigations raided an Arkansas business tied to Josh in November 2019 as part of a federal criminal investigation. The HSI website explains it is a “vital U.S. asset in combatting criminal organizations illegally exploiting America’s travel, trade, financial and immigration systems.”

Next, Joy Duggar’s husband, Austin Forsyth, was sued for fraud. In Touch noted that the buyers of a home Forsyth flipped filed a lawsuit against him, claiming he lied about obtaining a permit for a faulty septic tank installed on the property. The documents state the new homeowners’ “yard was saturated on the driest of days and that an unmistakable foul odor of human waste emanated from their yard.” Per The U.S. Sun, Forsyth settled the case in May 2021.

Then Jana Duggar was plunged into the legal fray. In December 2021, it was revealed she’d been charged with endangering the welfare of a minor. She claimed on her Instagram stories (via USA Today) that it had all just been a misunderstanding. “I was babysitting a few months ago when one of the children wandered outside alone. A passerby who saw the child called the police,” she wrote. “This resulted in a written citation, as well as a follow-up with child welfare, who concluded that it was an accident and the child was unharmed.”
