Megan Fox Reportedly Has 'Trust Issues' With Machine Gun Kelly Amid Split
Josh Duggar is spending his third Christmas behind bars and will be feasting on peanut butter and jelly sandwiches for the holiday meal.
The Federal Correctional Institution Seagoville in Dallas, Texas, will be offering the inmates hot oatmeal, a breakfast cake or whole wheat bread with two packets of jelly, whole fresh fruit, margarine, skim milk, and coffee with sugar packets for breakfast, according to the U.S. Sun.
Josh, 36, will receive his holiday feast during lunchtime as entrees include baked Cornish hen or herbed Cornish hen. Vegetarian and vegan options are also available, which include vegetable-stuffed peppers or soy chicken and vegetables. Side dishes for the meal consist of dinner rolls, mashed potatoes, chicken gravy, corn casserole and rice with broccoli and cheese. The prison will also serve assorted holiday pies or fruit for dessert.
Dinner is a more low-key meal, with the facility offering a deli sandwich, peanut butter and jelly, potato chips and whole wheat bread. In continuation with the holidays, FCI Seagoville will offer activities such as a singles ping pong tournament, Sequence, Skip-Bo and Scattergories.
The former 19 Kids and Counting star has been behind bars since his April 2021 arrest on child pornography charges. "Duggar allegedly possessed this material, some of which depicts the sexual abuse of children under the age of 12, in May 2019," according to a press release shared by the United States Attorney's Office of the Western District of Arkansas at the time.
Prosecutors originally asked for a 20-year prison sentence due to his "prior sexual exploitation of multiple minors" and "the extraordinary efforts Duggar took to obtain and view child sexual abuse materials (CSAM), the nature of the CSAM he obtained and viewed, his efforts to conceal his criminal conduct."
After a nine-day trial, Josh was found guilty of one count of receiving child pornography and one count of possessing child pornography in December 2021. The second charge was ultimately dismissed during his sentencing hearing in May 2022.
The Counting On alum was originally scheduled to be released on August 12, 2032, after serving 151 months behind bars, but his sentence was extended to October 2, 2032, after it was allegedly discovered that he possessed a cellphone and he was moved to the facility's Special Housing Unit (SHU) in March 2023.
The eldest Duggar son's legal team has made multiple efforts to appeal his sentence, with his most recent petition made to the United States Supreme Court in December 2023.
"Mr. Duggar's case raises an important question, inter alia, concerning a criminal defendant's constitutional right to present a complete defense," Josh's legal team wrote in the letter obtained by In Touch.
His lawyers stated that they didn't believe they were given "the time necessary to adequately prepare the petition" and said his defense would "benefit" from more time and consultation with attorneys. The petition was ultimately denied in June.
Josh was publicly seen for the first time in two years last month when he was spotted in the prison yard with a new mustache. The disgraced reality TV star showed off his new facial hair while exercising, according to photos obtained by The U.S. Sun.
