According to court documents, the reality TV star’s attorney, Gregory F. Payne, entered a not guilty plea on her behalf on Sept. 23.
It’s unclear what led authorities to charge Jana, as the citation from the Tontitown Police Department did not provide details into the case. However, the documents stated that Jana was cited around 3:01 p.m. at her home in Springdale, Ark.
A court date has been scheduled for Jan. 10, 2022.
Jana’s legal troubles came to light just one day after an Arkansas jury found her older brother, Josh Duggar, guilty of one count of receipt of child pornography and one count of possession of child pornography.
Josh faces up to 40 years in prison, up to 20 years for each count, and fines up to $500,000 (up to $250,000 for each count). Josh is expected to receive his sentence at a later date. CelebHomes News received word from his lawyers following his conviction that they intend to appeal.
CelebHomes News was given an exclusive statement by Jim Bob, and Michelle after the verdict. We are now able to trust in God’s mercy, thanks to the prayers and love of many. We are praying for anyone that has been hurt by CSAM. [Child Sexual Abuse Material].”
“As parents, we will never stop praying for Joshua, and loving him, as we do all of our children,” the couple added. We trust God in all things, no matter how difficult. God is our refuge and strength. Your prayers are greatly appreciated.
