Zguy28 Posted May 26, 2015 Share Posted May 26, 2015 I'm curious as to why TLC didn't pull it a long time ago if they knew about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Evil Genius Posted May 26, 2015 Share Posted May 26, 2015 I'm curious as to why TLC didn't pull it a long time ago if they knew about it. Probably for the same reason Joshua was allowed to be a figurehead for a lot of the GOP candidates and policies (like protecting marriage ). Someone in power had to know and someone in power probably thought it would never see daylight. I suspect they didn't feel like the FOIA would allow access to that police report.

mcsluggo Posted May 26, 2015 Share Posted May 26, 2015 Innocent question for some of our lawyers: Is destroying official records something that is done regularly? Can any rape (or other crime) victim have the record of the crime destroyed, and what is needed in order to get such a request granted? If the records are destroyed, can the defendant then claim innocence, and demand that any and all record of their involvement in this now non-existent crime also be destroyed? as to this case,, it sure makes the stench stronger. ~Bang I'm not following this at all (i mean not at ALL, o don;t really know who any of these guys are, other than there is a big ass family), but isn't that something that fairly regularly happens to records of offenses by juveniles, after they become adults? if we believe that there is a difference in culpability for juveniles, versus adults, this protects the individual from "adverse affects" (not sure how to phrase that?) as an adult, from crimes committed as a youth. right?

You would think so, but Oprah's folks found out in 2006. Somebody had to know it would come out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Evil Genius Posted May 26, 2015 Share Posted May 26, 2015 You would think so, but Oprah's folks found out in 2006. Somebody had to know it would come out. Yeah, I found this on TMZ. In 2006, the family was scheduled to appear on "Oprah," and before the show someone sent an email to Harpo warning that Josh had molested girls. Harpo forwarded the email to a hotline (child abuse hotline), which triggered a police investigation. Cops wanted to question Josh, but Jim Bob lawyered him up and Josh declined the invitation.

For the most part, they live in a bubble where they only work with people that already agree to them, and lobby for things to people that are already on board. As far as TLC. They still made the network money. So, sitting back and hoping it didn't come out...made sense. As long as all their interviews were on Friend & Friends or the 700 Club or whatever. They were safe. Now they are radioactive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AsburySkinsFan Posted May 26, 2015 Share Posted May 26, 2015 The victims are the one's who requested the destruction of the records via the judge. And yet the victims are the siblings of the molester....you cannot tell me that family is not influencing this decision. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently he was copping feels when they were asleep. I don't think he ever initiated anything else..but either way that some serious sick ****ed up stuff to be doing to your younger sisters and their friends (especially when you are old enough to know better like he was).
