Former reality TV star Josh Duggar was released from an Arkansas jail this week as he awaits trial on federal charges that he possessed and downloaded child pornography.
Duggar, 33, did not speak to reporters as he walked out of the Washington County jail in Fayetteville with his attorney Thursday afternoon local time, a day after a federal judge granted Duggar's release while he awaits his July 6 (US) trial. Duggar will be confined to the home of family friends who have agreed to serve as his custodians.
Duggar was indicted on Friday after being arrested by US Marshals. He has pleaded not guilty.
Duggar starred on TLC's "19 Kids and Counting" until it was pulled from the network in 2015 after revelations Duggar had molested four of his sisters and a babysitter. Duggar's parents said he had confessed to the fondling and apologised.
