Kendra Duggar Sobs to Joseph While He’s in Jail … Don’t Trust a Soul!

Washington County Jail
Kendra Duggar broke down in tears during an emotional call with her husband, Joseph, as he remained in jail in their hometown of Tontitown, Arkansas, last week … and she also pleaded with him not to trust a single soul.
Listen to the audio obtained by TMZ from a March 23 chat — Kendra sobs about not knowing how to be there for her and Joseph’s 4 kids while also being supportive of him.
On either side of Kendra’s weep-fest, she pleaded with her husband not to trust a single person aside from her attorney, Travis Story. She even calls her husband out for sneaking in a call with someone apparently named Greg … and she informs Joseph not to trust him.
This is just one of many phone calls TMZ has obtained between the “19 Kids and Counting” stars while Joseph sat in jail. In another eyebrow-raising chat, Kendra tells her husband she retained an attorney for herself … but makes it clear her lawyer will not be shared. And during other calls, the couple speaks about how to increase their cash flow to keep Kendra afloat as Joseph’s future remains unclear.
As you know, the reality star was arrested on child molestation charges stemming from a 2020 incident in Florida on March 18. And just 2 days later, he and Kendrawere charged with 4 counts each of second-degree endangering the welfare of a minor and second-degree false imprisonment. Kendra was booked into jail and released hours later after she paid a $1,470 bond.
Joseph, for his part, was extradited this week to Bay County, Fla., for his OG charges of lewd and lascivious behavior – molestation of a victim under 12 years old, and lewd and lascivious behavior conducted by a person 18 years or older.
He was released Tuesday after posting a $600,000 bond. The judge ordered him to stay away from his victim and not have unsupervised contact with any minor.
