The owner of the home where Joseph Duggar’s alleged crime took place is speaking out.
As you know, the 31-year-old television personality was arrested after allegedly molesting a 9-year-old girl while on vacation in Panama City Beach, Florida, in 2020. The homeowner of the property where the incidents happened broke their silence in an interview with Us Weekly on Friday, saying they were unaware of the allegations against Joseph. In fact, he had no idea about the investigation either and just heard about the charges of lewd and lascivious behavior, involving unlawful sexual activity with a minor, for the first time! Wow!
In addition, Joseph has been hit with four counts of endangering the welfare of a minor in the second degree and four counts of false imprisonment in the second degree. His wife, Kendra Duggar, was arrested on the same charges in Arkansas. However, those charges are unrelated to the molestation case.

The homeowner went on to say that he has not received any phone calls from the police about the incident at this time. However, he thinks the rental property management company possibly has more information and will contact them soon. We’ll see if he’ll reveal more details later on.
