In the aftermath of Josh Duggar’s conviction and subsequent imprisonment for serious offenses related to child sexual abuse, his cousin Amy Duggar King has been vocal about her feelings on the matter. In an interview with PEOPLE, Amy expressed strong opinions about Josh’s sentence, stating that she hopes every day is a challenge for him behind bars.

Amy’s sentiments stem from the severity of Josh’s actions, which she believes warrant significant consequences. She emphasizes that what Josh did to innocent children is unforgivable and that he deserves to face the full weight of the law. In her eyes, his imprisonment should not be an easy experience, but rather one marked by discomfort and accountability for his actions.

Despite their familial connection, Amy has chosen not to engage with Josh, believing that there is no way to reconcile his actions. She acknowledges the need for Josh to undergo significant personal change but remains uncertain about whether he is actively pursuing such transformation during his time in prison.

Josh’s legal troubles date back several years, with his recent conviction adding to a troubled history that includes previous allegations of molestation and infidelity.
