- 0:30Speaker 1: claims he sex abused a little girl just nine years
- 0:34Speaker 1: old on a Florida vacation. Now, hold on, you heard
- 0:39Speaker 1: me right, that's Joseph Duger. Remember the brother Josh, was
- 0:47Speaker 1: convicted of possessing child sex abuse images back in twenty
- 0:54Speaker 1: twenty one. What is it with this family? I'm Nancy Grace.
- 0:59Speaker 1: This is Crime Stories. I want to thank you for
- 1:02Speaker 1: being with us, Believe it or not. Former Nineteen Kids
- 1:06Speaker 1: in Counting star Joseph Dugger now arrested for alleged child
- 1:11Speaker 1: sex crimes against a nine year old little girl. The
- 1:15Speaker 1: thirty one year old from Arkansas allegedly molested the girl
- 1:20Speaker 1: on a vacation in Florida. Now, according to the court documents,
- 1:25Speaker 1: this occurred about six years ago. Here is the kicker.
- 1:31Speaker 1: Joseph Dugger's brother, Josh Dugger, was convicted of possessing child
- 1:36Speaker 1: sex abuse images. Back in twenty twenty one, he's serving
- 1:41Speaker 1: twelve and a half years behind bars after being found
- 1:44Speaker 1: guilty of receiving and possessing child sex abuse images. What
- 1:49Speaker 1: is with this family, dear gravy. Okay, while the new
- 1:56Speaker 1: complaints against Josh Dugger are unfolding, I recall distinkly the
- 2:02Speaker 1: facts in the Josh Duggar prosecution. Does anybody remember to
- 2:06Speaker 1: Ylsea's nineteen and counting? Well, maybe this will jog your memory.
- 2:12Speaker 1: Take a listen.
- 2:13Speaker 2: This is the story of my family.
- 2:15Speaker 1: We're the Douggers.
- 2:16Speaker 3: That's me.
- 2:17Speaker 1: I'm Michelle.
- 2:18Speaker 2: There's Jimpa, my wonderful husband, and our children. Josh is
- 2:22Speaker 2: our oldest he Mary Hannah, and they have our first grandchildren, Mackenzie,
- 2:27Speaker 2: Michael and Marcus. Then there's Jenna, John, David, Jill, she Mary, Derek,
- 2:33Speaker 2: Jessuph Ginger, Joseph, Josiah, joy Anna, Jennadiah, Jeremiah, Jason, James,
- 2:41Speaker 2: Justin Jackson, Johannah, Jennifer, Jordan, and our youngest daughter, Josie.
- 2:47Speaker 2: That's a grand total of nineteen and I.
- 2:50Speaker 4: Delivered every one of them. Of course, with this many kids,
- 2:53Speaker 4: we do things a little different than than most of
- 2:56Speaker 4: it is it always easy, but so probably will get
- 2:58Speaker 4: all work.
- 2:59Speaker 1: Look I'm not knocking big families. Power to them. I
- 3:03Speaker 1: always wanted four children. I got to. I only got to.
- 3:07Speaker 1: Blessed with two is a better way to put it.
- 3:10Speaker 1: But nineteen that's a little over the top for me.
- 3:14Speaker 1: Don't care about that today. I care more about the
- 3:17Speaker 1: fact that Josh Duger is charged with child pornography, joining
- 3:23Speaker 1: me an all star panel. Glenn Bard, retired Pennsylvania State Trooper,
- 3:28Speaker 1: first Class. Now this is the important part computer crime investigations.
- 3:33Speaker 1: That's why we need to talk to Glenn Bard, US
- 3:37Speaker 1: veteran Operation Desert Storm egoes on and on pat Tech Digital.
- 3:43Speaker 1: You can find them at pactech dot com. Sarah G.
- 3:47Speaker 1: West excuse me, Doctor Sarah G. West, Forensics psychiatry specializing
- 3:51Speaker 1: in sexually deviant behavior and Associate Professor of Psychiatry, Case
- 3:57Speaker 1: Western Reserve University School of Medicine. It's a lot to
- 4:01Speaker 1: take in because I've learned, doctor West, that very often
- 4:06Speaker 1: we think we know people by seeing them all the
- 4:10Speaker 1: time on TV and nineteen accounting ran a really long time.
- 4:15Speaker 1: I understand on TLC and it wasn't just the mom
- 4:18Speaker 1: and Dad, there are these innocent child figures that you
- 4:23Speaker 1: attached to, and when you watch it every single episode,
- 4:27Speaker 1: you start identifying with them. Look, I can't tell you
- 4:30Speaker 1: what I went through when Monk I don't know if
- 4:32Speaker 1: you ever saw that went off the air. He was
- 4:34Speaker 1: a detective with all sorts of emotional and mental disorders.
- 4:38Speaker 1: I actually missed Monk. So when you attached to these people,
- 4:43Speaker 1: it's very hard for you, the viewer or a JRR
- 4:48Speaker 1: to think they could do anything wrong, Doctor West.
- 4:51Speaker 4: Sure. So television shows, of course, have the benefit of
- 4:55Speaker 4: leaving things on the editing room floor. They get to
- 4:58Speaker 4: project an image of what they want you to see
- 5:00Speaker 4: rather than what is actually going on behind the scenes,
- 5:03Speaker 4: which they may or may not know about.
- 5:05Speaker 1: You know, what is that feeling of familiarity that we
- 5:09Speaker 1: think we know that person when really we don't.
- 5:13Speaker 4: Sure, I don't think we really know anyone, you know.
- 5:15Speaker 1: I noticed it, I guess the first time during the
- 5:18Speaker 1: oj Simpson trial, because the jurors really thought they knew Simpson.
- 5:24Speaker 1: Little did they know that my former co anchor Johnny
- 5:27Speaker 1: Cochrane and others had gone through Simpson's house and completely
- 5:32Speaker 1: redecorated regarding private photos all sorts of art. So when
- 5:38Speaker 1: the jurors walked through, they saw a completely different aspect
- 5:43Speaker 1: of Simpson. I guess it wasn't an aspect of Simpson's.
- 5:46Speaker 1: It wasn't even real, but it fit with what they
- 5:49Speaker 1: thought they knew. Guys, we're talking about Josh Duger, thirty
- 5:54Speaker 1: three year old father of multiple children himself now on
- 5:59Speaker 1: trying for child pornography. I want to go first to
- 6:05Speaker 1: Glenn Bard regarding what we know about Douger's computer. But
- 6:10Speaker 1: first of all, take a listen to our friend Byron
- 6:13Speaker 1: Pitts at ABC Nightline.
- 6:16Speaker 5: Josh Duger was arrested in Arkansas on Thursday, and on
- 6:20Speaker 5: Friday the charges were revealed. The thirty three year old
- 6:24Speaker 5: former nineteen Kids in Counting Star is accused of receiving
- 6:28Speaker 5: and possessing child pornography. During a hearing over Zoom, Dugger
- 6:32Speaker 5: pled not guilty to the federal charges. According to court documents.
- 6:37Speaker 5: In May twenty nineteen, Dugger allegedly used the Internet to
- 6:41Speaker 5: download child's sexual abuse material. He allegedly possessed the material,
- 6:46Speaker 5: some of which involved the sexual abuse of children under
- 6:50Speaker 5: the age of twelve. If convicted, Dugger faces up to
- 6:53Speaker 5: twenty years in prison and finds up to two hundred
- 6:57Speaker 5: and fifty thousand dollars on each count.
- 7:00Speaker 1: The counts here seemed to indicate that he went through
- 7:04Speaker 1: quite a lot to download the porn. It's my understanding, Glenbard,
- 7:10Speaker 1: former Pennsylvania State true or first class computer crime investigations expert,
- 7:16Speaker 1: that he had all sorts of software on his computer
- 7:20Speaker 1: at work at the used car lot so it would
- 7:23Speaker 1: not alert his wife. He was looking at not just
- 7:27Speaker 1: inappropriate sex material, but illegal sex material.
- 7:32Speaker 6: From what I.
- 7:32Speaker 7: Understand, what he had was a dual boot system, and
- 7:35Speaker 7: what that means is that it had a Windows opening system,
- 7:38Speaker 7: but he could then boot into a Linux partition. And
- 7:42Speaker 7: the reason why people do that not just this reason,
- 7:45Speaker 7: but one of the reasons is because when it boots
- 7:47Speaker 7: into the Linux partition, all the software, the monitoring software,
- 7:51Speaker 7: the networking software won't work on that Linux partition side.
- 7:55Speaker 1: Okay, wait wait wait wait wait wait wait wait, Glenbard.
- 7:59Speaker 1: I hate to interrupt you midstream, but a lot of
- 8:03Speaker 1: people don't know what you're saying because you're way way
- 8:07Speaker 1: way defcom for on this. You've got to talk not
- 8:10Speaker 1: computer language, but regular people talk. So when I say
- 8:16Speaker 1: I believe from the facts. The state is trying to
- 8:18Speaker 1: prove that Josh Duger from nineteen in County On, TLC
- 8:24Speaker 1: had special software on his computer so his wife Anna
- 8:31Speaker 1: at home would not be alerted he was looking at
- 8:34Speaker 1: child born. So let's start with something easy for non
- 8:41Speaker 1: techies like myself to get their mind around. What is
- 8:44Speaker 1: an alert on your computer that will notify somebody else,
- 8:49Speaker 1: the third party, that you're doing something really naughty? What
- 8:53Speaker 1: is that?
- 8:55Speaker 7: There is monitoring software that will alert people when something
- 8:59Speaker 7: like he is being viewed, or certain websites or being
- 9:02Speaker 7: access Some people can use it to monitor their children,
- 9:05Speaker 7: and other people use it for like this circumstance, maybe
- 9:09Speaker 7: a person who had a history.
- 9:11Speaker 1: Wow, did you say some people use it to monitor
- 9:14Speaker 1: their children like we have. Bark b a arka and
- 9:19Speaker 1: I had never heard of it before, but it alerts
- 9:22Speaker 1: you when your child goes onto a website that's bad
- 9:26Speaker 1: for them. And let me tell you what happened the
- 9:28Speaker 1: other day. Listen to this doctor West. So I got
- 9:31Speaker 1: an alert that my son John David was into self harm. Well,
- 9:38Speaker 1: I nearly did a backflip. I went on immediately because
- 9:42Speaker 1: Bark had alerted me. Guess what it was that week,
- 9:45Speaker 1: and I was there when it happened. He was defending
- 9:48Speaker 1: a goal. He was goalie in a soccer game at school,
- 9:52Speaker 1: and he dived almost sideways and his arm went through
- 9:56Speaker 1: the net, and he was so proud that he had
- 9:59Speaker 1: an injury, a bruise. So he took a picture of
- 10:04Speaker 1: his bruise that he got and by the way he
- 10:07Speaker 1: did defend it. They did not score, the other team
- 10:10Speaker 1: did not score, and he was so proud that he
- 10:12Speaker 1: was showing it off. He took a picture of it
- 10:14Speaker 1: with cell phone and sent it to some of his friends.
- 10:16Speaker 1: Look what I got defending the goal. And Bart was
- 10:20Speaker 1: so sensitive it picked up on that bruise and him
- 10:23Speaker 1: taking a picture of it. It alerted me, is you
- 10:28Speaker 1: know so? I found that really interesting? Uh, doctor West,
- 10:33Speaker 1: that that it's so sensitive to pick up things just
- 10:38Speaker 1: like that. Have you ever encountered that in your psychiatric practice.
- 10:43Speaker 4: I have never seen the monitor software it used, but
- 10:46Speaker 4: certainly self harm is a huge issue with our adolescent
- 10:49Speaker 4: population now so great that.
- 10:51Speaker 1: You are on top of that, I'm telling you. Sorry, okay,
- 10:54Speaker 1: So let me ask you back to you, Glenn Bard,
- 10:57Speaker 1: When you say that it's like parents who monitor their children.
- 11:02Speaker 1: What do you mean by that?
- 11:04Speaker 7: What I mean is the software itself.
- 11:06Speaker 3: What it does is it can be set up to just.
- 11:08Speaker 7: Monitor activities, the person's activities, whether it be spending too
- 11:12Speaker 7: much time on social media or accessing websites that contain pornography.
- 11:17Speaker 7: And what it will do is it will notify a person.
- 11:20Speaker 7: And it can be anything from just sending an email
- 11:22Speaker 7: out or sending your Internet history to an email account,
- 11:26Speaker 7: and that lets the person be able to know what's
- 11:28Speaker 7: been going on on that computer system.
- 11:31Speaker 1: So what I understand is Josh Digger had high tech
- 11:34Speaker 1: software installed on his work computer to bypass the monitoring
- 11:39Speaker 1: service that alerted wife Anna when he looked at quote
- 11:44Speaker 1: mature pain or crime stores with Nancy Gray. The former
- 11:59Speaker 1: TLC star Joseph Duggar charge molestation of a victim under
- 12:04Speaker 1: twelve years old and with lewd and lascivious behavior of
- 12:08Speaker 1: a person eighteen or older. This is according to the
- 12:11Speaker 1: Bay County Sheriff's Office. The girl, now fourteen, tells investigators
- 12:18Speaker 1: the incident took place while she was with her family
- 12:21Speaker 1: in Panama City back in twenty twenty. Dugger was booked
- 12:25Speaker 1: in the Washing County Jail in Arkansas and he will
- 12:29Speaker 1: be extradited to Bay County. Now, in these new claims,
- 12:34Speaker 1: it's alleged Joseph Duggar asked the girl to sit on
- 12:37Speaker 1: his lap as the vacation continued. According to the sheriff,
- 12:42Speaker 1: he also asked her to sit next to him on
- 12:44Speaker 1: a couch and covered the two of them with a blanket. Now,
- 12:49Speaker 1: during this time, Dugger allegedly manipulated the little girl's underwear
- 12:54Speaker 1: and touched for genitals. That's according to the sheriff. Now
- 13:00Speaker 1: you can expect dugg Ar two plead. You can expect
- 13:04Speaker 1: Duggar to plead not guilty. The then nine year old
- 13:09Speaker 1: girl stated Dougger eventually apologized for what happened and the
- 13:13Speaker 1: incidents stopped. Now, these charges and the arrest follow the
- 13:19Speaker 1: girl having a forensic interview after she made the claim
- 13:25Speaker 1: of sex abuse. Her father reportedly confronted Dugger, and the
- 13:30Speaker 1: reality star allegedly admitted his actions to the father and
- 13:34Speaker 1: to detectives. WHOA Okay, the crazy coincidence is that his brother,
- 13:42Speaker 1: Josh Dugger sitting behind bars for images of child sex abuse.
- 13:47Speaker 1: What is going on with this family? It's a dichotomy
- 13:51Speaker 1: and I want to talk to you about this doctor West,
- 13:53Speaker 1: that they present such a wholesome image. But yet we're
- 13:57Speaker 1: finding out that, according to the state, Josh Duger downloaded
- 14:02Speaker 1: child porn.
- 14:03Speaker 4: And that is something people often do in the privacy
- 14:06Speaker 4: of their own home that others may have no idea about.
- 14:09Speaker 1: Actually, what's happening in the courtroom can be very confusing
- 14:14Speaker 1: if you're not a high tech computer juru like Glenn
- 14:19Speaker 1: bard Is. But what's happening in that courtroom right now,
- 14:23Speaker 1: our gurrrs are getting an overload a computer tech education
- 14:28Speaker 1: and child porn. Take a listen to our friend Craig
- 14:31Speaker 1: O'Neil at THHV eleven.
- 14:33Speaker 8: All eyes are on Fable this week as the trial
- 14:35Speaker 8: of Josh Dugger gets underway. The former reality TV stars
- 14:40Speaker 8: charged with two counts of downloading and possessing child pornography.
- 14:44Speaker 8: Jury selection started this morning and the judge has yet
- 14:47Speaker 8: to decide on whether the prosecution can call Bobby Holt,
- 14:51Speaker 8: a longtime friend of Dougger's, to testify the prosecution claims.
- 14:56Speaker 8: In two thousand and three, Dugger told Holt on several
- 14:59Speaker 8: occasions he molested as many as four minors for several years.
- 15:03Speaker 8: Dugger's lawyer Sayholt should not testify because the things he
- 15:08Speaker 8: said were at a time that she was acting as
- 15:10Speaker 8: his spiritual advisor, with the understanding it would be confidential.
- 15:15Speaker 8: If convicted, he faces up to twenty years in prison,
- 15:18Speaker 8: along with fines of up to two hundred and fifty
- 15:20Speaker 8: thousand dollars on each count.
- 15:23Speaker 1: Now that is going to be an issue on appeal
- 15:25Speaker 1: if there is a conviction that evidence of prior molestations
- 15:30Speaker 1: of his sisters came into evidence front of the jury.
- 15:33Speaker 1: But take a listen now to our friends at People magazine,
- 15:37Speaker 1: this is our cut twenty five as describing how Josh
- 15:43Speaker 1: Digger's computer at work not home was quote riddled with
- 15:48Speaker 1: illicit material. I'm talking about child porn with children as
- 15:54Speaker 1: young as seven, may be younger. Take a listener, friends
- 15:57Speaker 1: at People.
- 15:58Speaker 9: On the third day of job Shdugger's trial on Thursday,
- 16:01Speaker 9: and investigator detailed the personal forensic investigation of three of
- 16:05Speaker 9: the former reality stars devices.
- 16:07Speaker 1: One investigator, who.
- 16:08Speaker 9: Spoke the longest and will continue speaking on the stand Friday,
- 16:12Speaker 9: revealed details about evidence found on Duggar's HP desktop computer
- 16:16Speaker 9: from his office at a car lot. The investigator testified
- 16:19Speaker 9: that the machine was riddled with illicit material. With the
- 16:22Speaker 9: aid of a series of screenshots, the investigator walked through
- 16:25Speaker 9: some of what he saw and learned in exploring the
- 16:28Speaker 9: HP machine. He testified that there was a program to
- 16:30Speaker 9: install a Linux operating system which was downloaded on the
- 16:34Speaker 9: device just days before the computer was found to be
- 16:37Speaker 9: sharing the illicit material in May of twenty nineteen.
- 16:40Speaker 1: He explained that the program.
- 16:41Speaker 9: Made it possible that while the public facing portion of
- 16:44Speaker 9: the computer appeared to be mostly business related, the hard
- 16:47Speaker 9: drive had in fact been split in two. Another experts
- 16:51Speaker 9: testimony described it as a separate computer on a computer.
- 16:54Speaker 1: You know, I understand it was something called a Linux
- 16:58Speaker 1: or Linux partition, which is a sophisticated piece of software
- 17:02Speaker 1: creating a separate workspace on your computer. You install it
- 17:08Speaker 1: as software on your computer, but then you open it
- 17:12Speaker 1: up as if it's an entirely different device. What about that,
- 17:16Speaker 1: Glenn Bar, Does that make any sense to you?
- 17:19Speaker 10: Some people do that.
- 17:20Speaker 7: What happens They describe it very well. They cut the
- 17:23Speaker 7: hard drive in two, and what will happen is you
- 17:26Speaker 7: can be using the Windows side, which we all use
- 17:29Speaker 7: for work in many cases, but when you want to
- 17:31Speaker 7: do something that you don't want the Windows side to see,
- 17:35Speaker 7: or you just want to go into a different operating system.
- 17:37Speaker 7: That machine can be turned off and turned back on
- 17:40Speaker 7: and this time go into that Linux operating system. It's
- 17:43Speaker 7: its own operating system, and it gives you truly like
- 17:47Speaker 7: a second computer. It's the same keyboard, the same monitor,
- 17:50Speaker 7: the same housing itself, but it's a completely different operating system.
- 17:54Speaker 7: And when you do that, what it allows it to
- 17:56Speaker 7: do is any type of controls that would be in
- 17:59Speaker 7: place on the Window side won't be in control on
- 18:02Speaker 7: that Linux side.
- 18:04Speaker 1: We're talking about Josh Duger, thirty three years old, now
- 18:07Speaker 1: reality star and a former hit series on TLC nineteen
- 18:10Speaker 1: Kids in Counting. It was a staple on TLC, a
- 18:14Speaker 1: highly rating network, to Jackie Howard joining us from Crime
- 18:19Speaker 1: Online dot Com. Prosecutors have said in open court, and
- 18:22Speaker 1: these are their words, not mine, that Duger downloaded images
- 18:27Speaker 1: and videos of young girls as young as seven years
- 18:31Speaker 1: old being quote abused, violated, and exploited, including files named
- 18:40Speaker 1: such names as Daisies, Destruction, Playboy Sweetie, and Pedo Mom.
- 18:50Speaker 1: I understand that there was a little Right Police Department
- 18:54Speaker 1: special task force called Torrential Downpour. It was an undercover
- 19:01Speaker 1: online investigation to unmasked pedophiles and perverts. I understand that
- 19:07Speaker 1: there was footage of girls aged seven and nine being
- 19:11Speaker 1: raped by an adult male and sixty five images at
- 19:18Speaker 1: least of a young girl seven or eight years old
- 19:21Speaker 1: being sexually abused and then placed in a dog channel.
- 19:29Speaker 1: Jackie Howard, is it true that several of the jurors
- 19:33Speaker 1: actually looked away as snippets of this material was shown
- 19:39Speaker 1: to them on monitors?
- 19:41Speaker 3: That is true, Nancy. Obviously it's a very difficult situation
- 19:45Speaker 3: and that is not easy material to look at. But
- 19:47Speaker 3: we also know that Josh Duper's family was affected. In fact,
- 19:51Speaker 3: his wife actually got us and walked out of the
- 19:54Speaker 3: courtroom in tears at that time.
- 19:56Speaker 1: What does it mean, Glenn Bard? The court heard that
- 20:00Speaker 1: at Callamer who was with the Little Rock Police tipped
- 20:04Speaker 1: off federal investigators and they trace the quote IP address
- 20:10Speaker 1: to Josh Duggers used car dealership, wholesale motor cars. What
- 20:15Speaker 1: does that mean to trace an IP address? What is that?
- 20:21Speaker 4: So?
- 20:21Speaker 6: The IP address is the Internet protocol and what that
- 20:24Speaker 6: is is a number that will identify a network on
- 20:27Speaker 6: the Internet, kind of like your phone number will identify
- 20:32Speaker 6: your series.
- 20:33Speaker 7: Of phones at your home.
- 20:35Speaker 6: The same thing happens to the Internet. It's just a.
- 20:37Speaker 7: Series of numbers that will identify a network access the
- 20:41Speaker 7: Internet through one access.
- 20:43Speaker 4: Point or a router.
- 20:44Speaker 7: So what they do is they can take that IP
- 20:47Speaker 7: address and it will tell them the ISD Internet Service provider,
- 20:51Speaker 7: And what they do then is serve legal process on
- 20:54Speaker 7: an ISP, who will then in turn and tell them
- 20:58Speaker 7: where that network comes back to the physical location of
- 21:01Speaker 7: that IP address at that time.
- 21:03Speaker 1: You know what I find really interesting Jackie Howard joining
- 21:06Speaker 1: some crime online when the FEDS came in and grabbed
- 21:11Speaker 1: his desktop at work Wholesale Motors, he said, without having
- 21:15Speaker 1: any idea of why they took the computer. Quote, has
- 21:20Speaker 1: someone downloaded child porn? Okay, you've heard me say this
- 21:25Speaker 1: till I'm sure you're blue in the face. Me. Thanks,
- 21:28Speaker 1: thou dost protest too much. It's like you walk by
- 21:32Speaker 1: a cop at the mall and you say, hey, I
- 21:35Speaker 1: was part of that smashing grab and nobody asked that's
- 21:38Speaker 1: what he did, Jackie. Has someone downloaded child pornography?
- 21:42Speaker 3: It is what he did, Nancy, And given his history
- 21:45Speaker 3: that he has admitted in the best to having an
- 21:48Speaker 3: issue in having been through a treatment center during his marriage.
- 21:51Speaker 3: He was very open with his life, and they actually
- 21:54Speaker 3: installed on that computer a program called Covenant Eyes. They
- 21:59Speaker 3: subscribe I did this in twenty thirteen, so we're looking
- 22:03Speaker 3: at about eight years ago. And this program would alert
- 22:08Speaker 3: his wife to any adult Internet usage and it would
- 22:13Speaker 3: report that back to Anna Douger. Now, the information that
- 22:17Speaker 3: was set up, as you mentioned, on the link system,
- 22:20Speaker 3: was in a partition and had a password that was entail.
- 22:27Speaker 3: The password was the same password that he used to
- 22:31Speaker 3: do his banking information. So it's very unlikely that anybody
- 22:36Speaker 3: hacked in and decided to use the exact same password
- 22:39Speaker 3: for what he did his banking with.
- 22:40Speaker 1: Okay, tell me that again, Jackie Howard. I understand that
- 22:43Speaker 1: his password involved his birthday, like the year. I mean,
- 22:47Speaker 1: does anybody ever get tired of using their birthday or
- 22:50Speaker 1: the year they were born, like Superstar in nineteen ninety eight,
- 22:55Speaker 1: when you were born in nineteen ninety eight. I mean,
- 22:59Speaker 1: he used his birthday in his password.
- 23:02Speaker 3: His password was in jail nineteen eighty eight.
- 23:06Speaker 1: Help me out. First, I want to talk to you
- 23:07Speaker 1: about the wife, Okay, and this is not her fault.
- 23:10Speaker 1: She's not the one downloading child porn according to prosecutors,
- 23:13Speaker 1: I mean sick child porn where you rate a seven
- 23:17Speaker 1: year old girl and then put her in a dog kennel.
- 23:20Speaker 1: I could say more, but I'm not. I'm not. So
- 23:24Speaker 1: why does the wife They've got seven children together? Why
- 23:30Speaker 1: does a wife stay with somebody that she knows? Sarah
- 23:34Speaker 1: addicted to not just pornography, but child pornography.
- 23:39Speaker 4: Well, I would suggest as the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual
- 23:44Speaker 4: or the psychiatry Bible would tell us that looking at
- 23:49Speaker 4: this kind of material as an illness, and you know,
- 23:52Speaker 4: if you view it through that lens, then you would
- 23:56Speaker 4: maybe be more tempted to stick around and see some
- 24:00Speaker 4: through their illness.
- 24:01Speaker 1: I'm sorry seeing it as an illness, Okay, I understand that,
- 24:06Speaker 1: But have you ever known doctor West? With me? Sarah G. West,
- 24:12Speaker 1: forensic psychiatrist. You can find her at Forensic Psychiatry MD
- 24:17Speaker 1: dot com. Sarah West. And all the years that I
- 24:22Speaker 1: prosecuted child molestation and sex offenses, I never saw one
- 24:27Speaker 1: child molester get rehabilitated. It's in their DNA. I don't
- 24:33Speaker 1: think they can change it. If you disagree, tell me why.
- 24:37Speaker 4: Well, I do think there are some treatment options available
- 24:40Speaker 4: that may make it less likely that they would re
- 24:43Speaker 4: engage in that kind of behavior.
- 24:45Speaker 1: You mean like Paslov's dogs. In other words, they still
- 24:49Speaker 1: want to do the naughty thing, but they know they're
- 24:53Speaker 1: going to get zapped if they do it. The impulse
- 24:55Speaker 1: to do it never goes away, but they can be
- 24:59Speaker 1: trained not to do it. Is that what you're saying?
- 25:01Speaker 4: That is a very psychological approach to that, And yes,
- 25:04Speaker 4: I think that is quite possible.
- 25:06Speaker 1: How is that different from what you said?
- 25:09Speaker 4: I would say that it's probably a little more complex.
- 25:12Speaker 4: I think that you could probably decrease the impulses as well,
- 25:17Speaker 4: but that would be the more challenging piece. Controlling the
- 25:20Speaker 4: behavior is absolutely the thing that we need to be
- 25:22Speaker 4: mindful of, and there are a couple of techniques that
- 25:25Speaker 4: psychiatrists and psychologists both utilize to do that. The first
- 25:29Speaker 4: is therapy. The main stay of therapy is victim empathy.
- 25:32Speaker 4: I think that that is a nice way to teach
- 25:35Speaker 4: people that what they're doing hurts other folks. And the second,
- 25:39Speaker 4: probably more intrusive form, is medication. Medication can decrease sech
- 25:44Speaker 4: drive and decrease somebody's likelihood that they would be able
- 25:47Speaker 4: to physically act on those inputs.
- 25:50Speaker 1: So basically you're saying, let me just put it in
- 25:54Speaker 1: regular people talk, decrease sex activity, so the PERB can't
- 26:00Speaker 1: get an erection.
- 26:01Speaker 4: That is one of the methods. Yes, Another method would
- 26:04Speaker 4: be the utilization of a medication that's real commons. They're
- 26:08Speaker 4: SSRIs selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors. More commonly people might know prozac,
- 26:15Speaker 4: golof those are actually medications that decrease sex drive, decreased
- 26:19Speaker 4: sexual desire. It's a side effect. We can use that
- 26:23Speaker 4: side effect to treat people who have unusual sexual impulses.
- 26:28Speaker 1: So you say unusual sex impulses, I call them felonies.
- 26:33Speaker 1: But doctor West, so your one treatment to decrease the
- 26:39Speaker 1: urge for child sex or child porn is to dope
- 26:43Speaker 1: them up. But the minute they get off the drugs,
- 26:45Speaker 1: they're right back at it. My question is, is there
- 26:48Speaker 1: a way to your knowledge, to cure them, to stop
- 26:53Speaker 1: them forever having the impulse to have sex with children,
- 26:57Speaker 1: which is rape or look at child porn to make
- 27:01Speaker 1: that urge go away.
- 27:03Speaker 4: I do not think there's a way to entirely make
- 27:05Speaker 4: that urge go away.
- 27:07Speaker 1: So doctor West, like it or not, I think you
- 27:10Speaker 1: agree with me because I've never seen a child molester,
- 27:14Speaker 1: to my chagrin, ever, be cured. When I was a
- 27:20Speaker 1: new prosecutor, I was besieged by defense attorneys that wanted
- 27:24Speaker 1: me to send their client to treatment facilities instead of
- 27:29Speaker 1: to jail. I did it once. It was a mistake.
- 27:33Speaker 1: It was a mistake. I never did it again because
- 27:37Speaker 1: I learned the hard way. I learned the hard way.
- 27:41Speaker 1: It doesn't work. I don't think it works.
- 27:43Speaker 4: I do think it depends on insight. If people recognize
- 27:46Speaker 4: they have a problem and are motivated to solve it,
- 27:49Speaker 4: just like any other medical condition diabetes, high blood pressure,
- 27:53Speaker 4: then they can do the things that are necessary to
- 27:56Speaker 4: keep it under control.
- 27:58Speaker 1: You know, Jackie, I want to go back to you.
- 28:00Speaker 1: Jackie Howard Duggar says he was quote his word's not mine,
- 28:04Speaker 1: vaguely familiar with the password Intel nineteen eighty eight, prompting
- 28:10Speaker 1: a brief but furious exchange of Roberts, who accused him
- 28:15Speaker 1: of hiding information. So long story short, he admits that's
- 28:20Speaker 1: his password. He knows it's his password, and what was
- 28:23Speaker 1: he using the password for? Jackie Howard?
- 28:25Speaker 3: He was using it to access his banking information, and good.
- 28:31Speaker 1: Lord, I'm a JD. Not a DD's not a pool teeth.
- 28:35Speaker 1: I can certainly try, Jackie Howard. He was also using
- 28:38Speaker 1: it to look at videos of seven to eight year
- 28:41Speaker 1: old girls being sexually abused, i e. Raped and put
- 28:45Speaker 1: in dog kennels. Take a listen to it. I'm okay,
- 28:49Speaker 1: what go ahead?
- 28:50Speaker 3: And if you did not have access to that password
- 28:53Speaker 3: for the petition on his computery, no one else could
- 28:57Speaker 3: access that, no.
- 28:58Speaker 1: One else could access us that, guys, I want you
- 29:02Speaker 1: to take a listen to our cut thirty two. This
- 29:05Speaker 1: is Emma Claybrook at forty twenty nine News.
- 29:08Speaker 11: Before the forensics expert took the stand, the jury heard
- 29:11Speaker 11: from three former Dugger family friends. The final witness testified
- 29:15Speaker 11: that Dugger allegedly touched the private parts of four juveniles
- 29:19Speaker 11: in two thousand and three when he was fifteen. Judge
- 29:22Speaker 11: Tim Brooks told the jury that Dugger is not charged with.
- 29:25Speaker 4: Child molestation in this case.
- 29:27Speaker 11: In this case, he's only charged with possessing and receiving
- 29:30Speaker 11: child pornography. But the judge says he allowed the testimony
- 29:33Speaker 11: to stand today to help set up a motive for
- 29:36Speaker 11: the current charges Dougger is facing.
- 29:38Speaker 1: And let me understand that Sarah West a motive for
- 29:43Speaker 1: the and similar transactions are allowed. That means, let's say
- 29:49Speaker 1: I charge Jackie Howard with pulling a pistol and pistol
- 29:55Speaker 1: whipping Kara here in the studio, just off the top
- 29:59Speaker 1: of my head, and she's being tried for that. Jackie,
- 30:02Speaker 1: you know I don't like you anymore after you pistol
- 30:05Speaker 1: whipped her. But I can, then, as a prosecutor, bring
- 30:10Speaker 1: in that on another occasion she pistol whipped somebody else,
- 30:14Speaker 1: that she threw a gun at somebody else, that she
- 30:17Speaker 1: is prone to gun violence. They are brought in to
- 30:21Speaker 1: show motive, course of conduct, frame of mind, intent. They
- 30:27Speaker 1: tend to prove the case in chief, although the jury
- 30:31Speaker 1: is not considering those charges for sentencing or guilt or innocence.
- 30:35Speaker 1: That's what's happening here. So let me understand this, doctor West.
- 30:39Speaker 1: The prosecutor brought in previous examples of him molesting his
- 30:45Speaker 1: sisters to show motive, and the sisters were young, they
- 30:51Speaker 1: were under age at the time, considered children in the
- 30:53Speaker 1: eyes of the law, to show motive for downloading child porn.
- 30:57Speaker 1: Does that make sense to you, doctor West?
- 30:59Speaker 4: It does me, But we would look at someone's past
- 31:03Speaker 4: behavior to get a better sense of what's going on currently. Absolutely,
- 31:07Speaker 4: something that I do when I work with folks who
- 31:10Speaker 4: have a history of sex offense has examine what.
- 31:12Speaker 3: Has happened in the past to get a better understanding
- 31:14Speaker 3: of what's going on right now.
- 31:16Speaker 1: I don't understand, doctor, ask how when you've already been
- 31:20Speaker 1: in trouble for sexu related crimes, that you're willing to
- 31:25Speaker 1: risk your livelihood, your marriage, losing your seven children Because
- 31:32Speaker 1: if he's convicted of child porn, he's not going to
- 31:34Speaker 1: have access or visitation, unfettered visitation with his children. That's
- 31:38Speaker 1: not going to happen. No, you're right, why would a
- 31:42Speaker 1: per risk it all?
- 31:45Speaker 4: So it is a difficult pill to swallow. But again
- 31:47Speaker 4: I'll go back to the concept that this is an illness.
- 31:50Speaker 4: In the same way that we wonder why folks continue
- 31:52Speaker 4: to drink after they've had ten DUIs, This is the
- 31:55Speaker 4: same thing.
- 32:03Speaker 1: Crime stores with Nancy Grace. The Josh Dugger case was
- 32:12Speaker 1: full of bombshells. GWNN Bard, former Pennsylvania State trupe for
- 32:17Speaker 1: first class computer crime investigations. You can find them at
- 32:21Speaker 1: forensicspactech dot com. Glenn have you seen this before where
- 32:28Speaker 1: people that download child porn go through extreme and elaborate
- 32:34Speaker 1: measures to hide it.
- 32:36Speaker 10: Absolutely, a lot of times what I've seen personally from
- 32:40Speaker 10: my investigations that child porn A lot of times it will
- 32:43Speaker 10: be something that's very important to them, and like the
- 32:47Speaker 10: same way that you protect things very important to you,
- 32:50Speaker 10: whether it be you.
- 32:51Speaker 7: Know, your children and sort like that, that's what they
- 32:53Speaker 7: do with this sort of stuff. I've seen almost identical
- 32:56Speaker 7: things where people will go through great lengths about hiding
- 32:59Speaker 7: it or even I remember one case in particular, I
- 33:03Speaker 7: had a person who had his family living in.
- 33:05Speaker 4: Utter fills in a house.
- 33:07Speaker 7: The house is the Ploraboy. It was, I mean, I
- 33:09Speaker 7: felt terrible just walking through there, But when you walked
- 33:12Speaker 7: into that guy's computer room, he actually kept covers and
- 33:16Speaker 7: cloth on the computers to keep them clean and safe.
- 33:20Speaker 7: He had his children living in utter, absolute filled but
- 33:23Speaker 7: those computer systems were protected and covered and kept safe.
- 33:27Speaker 7: And the reason why it was because I was on
- 33:29Speaker 7: them was tough pornography. It was kind of like almost
- 33:32Speaker 7: the focal point of everything that he had in life.
- 33:35Speaker 7: So this is not surprising to hear this sort of
- 33:38Speaker 7: thing taking too I think to say.
- 33:39Speaker 1: It, you know, another saying doctor, yeah, jump in.
- 33:44Speaker 3: One of the things that also important to remember then,
- 33:46Speaker 3: in regards for this onement's provision that he had on
- 33:48Speaker 3: his computer, not only that he had software that would
- 33:53Speaker 3: also circumsen and his search and make sure that the
- 33:56Speaker 3: monitoring program that he and his wife that installed on
- 34:00Speaker 3: the computer would not work and would not notify her.
- 34:03Speaker 1: So he went to extreme measures. And my question to you,
- 34:07Speaker 1: doctor Sarah West.
- 34:08Speaker 6: Is.
- 34:11Speaker 1: I don't know quite how to say this, but sometimes
- 34:15Speaker 1: it seems to me that the effort, the conniving, the scams,
- 34:21Speaker 1: the secrecy, all of the labyrinth they go through to
- 34:28Speaker 1: hide something adds to the thrill of it. You know, Like,
- 34:34Speaker 1: let's see people that are cheating on their spouse, they
- 34:37Speaker 1: go through all this drama to register at a hotel
- 34:41Speaker 1: under a different name and paying cash and wear a
- 34:44Speaker 1: hat and sunglasses when they go. It's crazy to me,
- 34:49Speaker 1: but to them that's part of the excitement of it. Potentially.
- 34:53Speaker 4: Yeah, and there is a whole community out there on
- 34:55Speaker 4: the dark web who exchanges this information, you know. One
- 35:00Speaker 4: if you worked with a couple of these offenders, you
- 35:02Speaker 4: get a better sense of how deep this goes.
- 35:05Speaker 1: Guys, we are talking about a reality TV star, Josh
- 35:10Speaker 1: Duger right now on trial for downloading images of child porn.
- 35:15Speaker 1: Trade back out to Jackie Howard, Crime Online dot Com
- 35:18Speaker 1: investigative reporter Jackie, you and I have taught in depth
- 35:23Speaker 1: with for instance, our friend will call her Alicia, Alicia Kay,
- 35:29Speaker 1: who was raped and molested as a young child, and
- 35:34Speaker 1: her molester took hundreds and hundreds of photos and video
- 35:40Speaker 1: images of her. And to this day they're still being
- 35:44Speaker 1: traded on the dark web. And how much to this day,
- 35:49Speaker 1: years decades later, it still upsets these victims. These images
- 35:56Speaker 1: are being traded like baseball cards.
- 35:59Speaker 3: Jackie Howard say, Lauren Nancy and the ring that these
- 36:04Speaker 3: pictures get passed in on the dark web and through
- 36:08Speaker 3: message boards by pedophiles and six abuse people who watch porn,
- 36:14Speaker 3: and it's just a circle, and they enjoy sharing it.
- 36:18Speaker 3: It's almost like a hobby in a way.
- 36:20Speaker 7: They enjoy sharing.
- 36:22Speaker 3: What they have found and what they've seen with other
- 36:24Speaker 3: people who are abusers.
- 36:27Speaker 1: If I were in court right now, I would stay,
- 36:31Speaker 1: look you dead in eyes and tell you what's on
- 36:34Speaker 1: those images, the videos I've already told you about the
- 36:38Speaker 1: little girls being raped. One little girl being molested and
- 36:42Speaker 1: thrown in a dog pin. There's so many more that
- 36:46Speaker 1: are even more graphic. Little children being sexually abused and
- 36:53Speaker 1: forced to pose in certain ways in front of the camera.
- 36:57Speaker 1: Those children will never be the same I've worked with.
- 37:04Speaker 1: I can't even count how many molestation victims children. They
- 37:09Speaker 1: go on to live, to have a job, maybe have
- 37:13Speaker 1: a family. They're never ever the same. And these pervs
- 37:20Speaker 1: are trading these sex images child porn like their baseball cards.
- 37:26Speaker 1: How bizarre is it that Joseph dugger from Nineteen Kids
- 37:32Speaker 1: in Counting is now charged with child's sex abuse while
- 37:35Speaker 1: brother Josh is doing twelve plus years behind bars on
- 37:40Speaker 1: child six images That case blew the reality show and
- 37:46Speaker 1: the family's image to bits. Joseph Duggar insists he's innocent.
- 37:54Speaker 1: We wait as justice unfolds Nancy Grace's crime story, signing
- 37:59Speaker 1: off good Bye friend.
