FORMER reality TV star Amy Duggar shared her thoughts about her cousin Josh and his time in prison.
In April 2021, Josh, 36, was arrested for receiving and possessing child pornography.
Later that year, in December, the disgraced former 19 Kids and Counting star was convicted of his crime, and in May 2022, he was sentenced to 12 years in prison.
Josh is currently serving his sentence at FCI Seagoville Federal Prison in Texas until October 2032.
It has been reported that Josh has molested many young women, including his younger sisters, Jill, 32, and Jessa, 31.
He also admitted that he cheated on his wife Anna, 35, using the website Ashley Madison and ended up going to rehab for his pornography addiction.
Josh and Anna share seven children: Mackynzie, Meredith Grace, Maryella Hope, Madyson, Michael, Marcus, and Mason.
AMY’S TAKING
On Thursday, Amy, 37, spoke to People about Josh and his relationship with Anna.
“I hope every day is absolute torture for him,” the former reality star revealed.
“I really hope so, because what he watched and what he was seeing for his own fulfillment was these children being tortured.”
Amy revealed to the news outlet that she has not been in contact with Josh since his sentencing.
“I haven’t spoken to him and I won’t. I won’t. When you just cross those lines of evil like that, there’s no going back. I just think there’s no going back.”
‘I CAN’T IMAGINE’
She later revealed that she hadn’t spoken to Josh’s wife since last summer at a funeral.
“That was the last time. I didn’t really expect to see anyone there and I was shocked to see her. I just looked at her and said, ‘Anna,’ and she said, ‘I just need space.’ she told me,” she explained.
“I understand, I can’t speak for Anna and I won’t try, but I can’t imagine what she’ll have to deal with internally, let alone out there for the world to see.”
Amy said she respected Anna’s wishes.
VISIT HOURS
Amy’s tell-all interview comes shortly after Josh’s parents, Jim Bob, 58, and Michelle, 57, went to visit him in prison.
Earlier this month, a source exclusively revealed to The US Sun that the two were inside the prison “for at least five hours”.
The source revealed: “Josh likes to sit in the corners so we were too far away to hear anything, but there were lots of smiles and they were still there when I left.
“They got some snacks – no games, although the cupboard was open. Jim Bob was leaning back with his arm over the chair, his wife sort of snuggled up next to him.
“Josh was leaning forward, which is different body language than when he’s with Anna and the kids.”
