Duggar seeks to bar child molestation witness, citing clergy privilege - INSIDER
Federal prosecutors have sought to use the old molestation allegations — which date back to 2002 and 2003 — against Duggar during the trial.Duggar was never criminally charged in connection to the molestation allegations, but prosecutors have said they intend to submit evidence that Duggar "was investigated for, admitted to, and received counseling for touching and sexually molesting multiple minor females, including at least one instance involving the digital penetration of a prepubescent minor." .Federal prosecutors slammed the Duggar team's arguments in their own filing on Tuesday, noting that Holt "is not clergy at all" and therefore clergy privilege doesn't apply to her, and arguing that Duggar and his father have waived any privilege by making public statements addressing the molestation allegations
