“I have forgiven my brother of his wrongdoings,” Jason wrote of Josh one day after the 34-year-old was sentenced to 12 years in prison.
“Yesterday my oldest brother was sentenced to 151 months, around 12 1/2 years in prison for receiving and possessing child pornography,” the “Counting On” alum, 22, wrote on his Instagram Story Thursday.
“In my opinion, judge Timothy L. Brooks was fair in his ruling giving Josh a sentence that would be considered below the median for the crimes he has committed,” Jason continued. “My heart is grieved over the choices my brother has made, his actions do not reflect that of a Christian believer and have doubtlessly defamed my Lord and Saviors name!!”
The former reality star added that Josh’s crimes “greatly effected [sic] those around him,” mentioning the 34-year-old’s wife, Anna Duggar, and their seven kids: Mackynzie, 12, Michael, 10, Marcus, 8, Meredith, 6, Mason, 4, Maryella, 2, and Madyson, 7 months.“With that said, I will never stop loving my brother, regardless of what he does, just as my savior has forgiven me so I have forgiven my brother of his wrongdoings!” Jason concluded.
