These types of cases just disgust me and get my blood boiling, is all. I hurt for the victims. The victims he couldn't even acknowledge or apologize to.
What gets me really sad for them is not only were they forced to be with their molester, every day, in the same house, with mom and dad complicit to ALL of it, no support, and in the end probably feel like they did something wrong... but that the NATION had the wrong idea about the family for so many years, fawning over this monster's wedding, and they have been so brainwashed that they couldn't say anything.
This has gotten to me. As someone who married her sexual abuser, 5 years of trying to be okay with it... it's just an awful life to lead.

The whole Duggar thing disgusts me. What makes me ponder the world we live in are the comments in support for this family. WTF? Seriously, just WTF? You know if he did this to his brothers, it would have been a different story because OMGZ the GAYZ!
As someone who works with survivors of abuse, anyone trying to make excuses for his behavior sickens me. I worked with kid who was 14-16 (don't remember exact age) who molested a much younger family member (sister? cousin? not sure). He felt remorse and was in treatment but the family didn't just let him around everyone, no consequences. He lived in a residential treatment facility. The way the Duggars handled it really pidses me off.
