Josh Duggar’s brother-in-law vows: ‘I won’t stop trying to get that pig out of our family’

Apparently not everyone is as eager to forgive Josh Duggar as his wife, parents and Jesus are.

According to People magazine, Anna Duggar’s brother Daniel Keller is furious over the eldest Duggar son’s recent scandalous admissions, which included secret accounts at the cheating website Ashley Madison and a phony Facebook profile which he used to meet strippers, sex workers and other women.

While Anna has declared that she will stay with her husband in spite of his philandering ways, Keller has taken to social media to voice his disgust with Josh’s behavior.

On Sunday, Jessa Duggar Seewald, Josh’s sister, posted a verse from the Christian Bible’s Gospel of John to Facebook, which read, in part, “But if we walk in the light as he is in the light, and we have fellowship with one another and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin.”

I wish Anna would take him up on his offer for her and the children to go and stay with him. Regardless of her ultimate decision (and I'm sure that decision will be to stand by her man!!!), it would do her and the children good, I'm sure, to have a change of scenery for a while.

but it will likely take a loathsome disease brought to her via some addicted hooker he paid extra to skip the condom.

Until then, it looks like his family found him the perfect Christian doormat. She'll sit and read the verses the preacher points out for her to read in between baby tending and cleaning the toilet while her husband is out fucking anything that stands still long enough.

You know the old saying about things coming in 3's. I'm waiting for a woman to come forward saying she had his love child.

I really don't think this is over yet by a long shot.

His treatment did not prevent him from continuing to have a problem, perhaps this time professional help may help him. He is what he is.

Nobody talks about the fact that, just a few years ago, he was diddling underage relations.

How is it we're all taking about him using AM and other places to find hookers and not talking about the fact that he's an admitted child molester.

Even Anna's brother is hell bend over the philandering and not the child molestation.

Makes me wonder what's really going on in the qiverfull world.

They don't want her to get divorced. It amazes me that they can feel that way after everything Josh has done and after the way Anna has been treated.

Ironically, the great fallout here may be in the relationship between Anna's brother Daniel and his parents.

that he's a changed man. He should have come clean after the incestuous pedophilia episode, but he chose to hide his philandering. No telling what else is out there: A LOVE CHILD, maybe, with a hooker?

Anna could end up losing everything to a woman who sues Josh. She should cut her losses.

18. You raise a very good point about a possible lawsuit.
Mon Aug 24, 2015, 09:40 PM

Josh is already facing two lawsuits that I have heard about. One is from the fifth girl who he molested, the one who was not his sister. The other is from the guy whose picture he used in his OKCupid profile. And of course, there could be more down the pike for reasons we have not heard about yet.

Anna might be able to get her half of their assets before Josh suffers any losses that he accrues in legal fees and court-awarded damages. If that understanding of the law is correct--although it might not be--then Anna should probably get out while she can and salvage whatever she still can for herself and her children.

Of course, we also don't know if Josh used protection with the various women he has slept with. Condoms are not part of the culture he comes from. And he probably didn't see too many of them being used in the pornography he was watching. So it is possible that he has already passed along an STD to his wife. Anna was having unprotected sex with a man who she thought she was in a monogamous relationship with--but it turns out it wasn't monogamous. She needs to get tested immediately.

And it wouldn't be in People Magazine, but for a rumor that Josh had somehow misplaced his testicles.
