Just the made up ones in their heads.
Wonder why that is?

(4,405 posts)from a dark web site and traced one to his IP address and that's how they got the search warrant for his computer.
His wife has known since 2015 that he molested his sisters, chose to take him back and have three more kids with him putting her faith in a bit of software to curb his worst instincts.
He was also busted cheated on her when the Ashley website was hacked but she still didn't kick him to the curb. Her parents are brainwashed fundamentalists who homeschooled her as well and I guess at this point with seven kids and no education she figures he's a sunk cost.

(33,643 posts)Like he probably admitted he has a 'regular' porn addiction to her and she insisted he put this software on his machine.
Not realizing it wouldn't work if he went on the dark web ... which I'm fairly sure is the only way one acquires child sexual abuse images. There's not regular/legit WWW commercial porn sites that allow that crap.
I HAVE to hope that this woman will now divorce him after this ... at least if he's found guilty. If he is, he's probably going to jail for a bit so that'll keep him away from kids, including his own.

(9,894 posts)child protective services in his county? When I was a caseworker this situation would have been - Dad out of the house or kids out of the house. Supervised visits for Dad.

(33,643 posts)And there were no charges, let alone convictions.
CPS wouldn't have jurisdiction to monitor him as an adult under these conditions.
The porn monitoring was probably just a husband/wife thing where she caught him viewing some (presumably adults), and threatened to leave if he didn't stop, and put the software on his computer to make sure ... is my guess.
I'm guessing the wife didn't know about the child sexual abuse images until he was arrested.
Nor would've CPS.

(4,575 posts)He had a Linux partition on his laptop that skirted Covenant Eye which is the program his wife used to monitor his activity. He watched a video of a child rape that the investigator called one of the top 5 worst things he'd ever seen in his career. All this and the judge still let him out on bail.
I fell into a Reddit thread about this yesterday which I now kind of wish I'd never seen. They are literally going to let some church friends watch him. There are guns in their house and their daughter gives piano lessons. Also this POS has like 5 or six kids of his own. He'd be a good candidate for chemical castration.

That would be Josh
I guess he should have stuck with the Covenant eye
But those around him arent caring enough about what he is doing to give him the stink eye or evil eye which is another creep factor with that crowd

(4,575 posts)The children in the video he watched were 7 and 9.

The scary ones are the True Believers like Aunt Lydia who genuinely believe that all the horrific things they do are actually helping their victims.

(10,072 posts)if you have to put a block on the computer so he doesn't watch child porn? Who the hell did she turn down, if this is who she chose?
Hugh_Lebowski
(33,643 posts)There's a lot a husbands who are (regular) porn addicts, and it's a problem for their marital relations.
The software in use I'm sure was designed to alert on ANY porn.
But it won't work if the person switches to a different partition w/a different operating system (Linux in this case) than the one that porn monitoring software is installed on. That is essentially like having a secret computer the other person doesn't know about, even though physical box (or laptop) is the same one.

(100,103 posts)And there was that story about how they had the house intentionally designed to keep the boys on one side and the girls on the other side? And then the parents' room was in the middle so they could catch the boys if they went over to the other side during the night? I remember that being creepy as fuck.

(146,331 posts)So fine Christian men like Josh Duggar must have a piece of software installed on their computers to keep them from their addiction to child porn? Really? Why doesn't Jebus help them? Why don't their God-given "family values" keep them from such activities?
Why does not their conscience prevent them from sneaking behind that software and doing it anyhow? How have I, an atheist, managed to have never seen any child porn at all in my 75 years. Truly, a person has to seek that out willingly, and with knowledge that it is illegal, immoral, and just plain freaking wrong.
That man should never have been released from jail, and should spend the rest of his life behind bars. He is a danger to children everywhere.

(12,676 posts)So, women, children, neighbors, employees, customers that come in contact with a "Godly Man" are the ones who have to ensure they aren't the ones providing the overwhelming temptations that cause that struggling sinner to succumb.
After all, Bathsheba washing herself on her rooftop to cool herself on a hot night is was what caused King David to sin, not his inability to control his own horn-dog dude-bro urges, or to admit the shame of forcing himself on his best friend's wife, which ended up with him committing the further sin of sending that trusting best friend to his certain death just to keep boinking her.
His struggles were forgiven while lesser people are allowed to suffer for them. Gawd's will favors the Elect, Kings, and Profits after all...
Talk about twisting justifications into knots.

(146,331 posts)who could not allow himself to be alone in the same place as any woman. He, too, claimed to be an upstanding Christian man. Yet, apparently, he would not be able to control his lust if alone with a woman and would have immediately turned into a rapist.
There is something terribly wrong with all of that. I'll stick with my atheism, thanks. Humanism teaches that consent and consideration should apply in all interactions with others. Who knew?
