Josh Duggar resurfaces in his prison uniform with a mustache as he’s spotted for first time in 2 years behind bars

For the first time in two years, Josh Duggar has made a comeback, sporting a new look as he works out in the Dallas, Texas, yard of FCI Seagoville.

On allegations of child pornography, Josh, 36, is presently incarcerated for 151 months; his release date is October 2, 2032.

Josh was seen wandering alone on the prison grounds on November 22 for the first time in years in exclusive images that The U.S. Sun was able to secure.

Josh is shown in the photos strolling around the track, looking happy and wearing shorts, sunglasses, and a brown shirt.

Josh’s clean-cut look on the family’s TLC reality show 19 Kids and Counting was drastically different when he debuted a goatee and short beard.

When a prison photo of the disgraced reality star behind bars circulated in 2022, Josh was last seen.

LIFE AT SEAGOVILLE

The daily creative activities offered in the penitentiary were previously covered by the U.S. Sun.

The U.S. Sun was able to collect images of prisoners walking the track, playing basketball, tennis, pickleball, and horseshoes.

Early in the morning, inmates get leisure time, a source told The U.S. Sun at the time. Later in the afternoon, they might go back outside after spending a few hours indoors.

During recreation hours, inmates may also perform musical instruments, such as guitars.

The hours of visitation are Friday through Monday.

Family members of Josh, including his 36-year-old wife Anna, who accompanied him during the trial, have been spotted in the prison to visit her husband and their seven small children.

HOLIDAYS BEHIND BARS

Days before Josh celebrated Thanksgiving inside the institution, the unusual sighting occurred.

The holiday themecomprised two rolls, sweet potato casserole, green bean casserole, cranberry sauce, roasted turkey, glazed ham, and cornbread dressing with turkey gravy.

Vegetable lasagna and dirty rice with kidney beans and soy were among the vegetarian alternatives for entrants.

Dessert consisted of a variety of pies.

The prison provided convicts with Monopoly, Dominos, Name That Tune, and Checkers from Thursday, November 28 to Sunday, December 1.

Activities over the weekend included pass/punt/kick, racquetball, and handball.

HOME SWEET HOME

Josh stays in a renovated dorm in Seagoville with special amenities and privileges, according to a prior story by the U.S. Sun.

In Dorm 6, where Josh resides, they completed painting the walls and got flowers installed. According to a person who spoke to The U.S. Sun, it has been converted into an honors dorm.

As an honors dorm, they are entitled to additional privileges and building renovations. Microwaves, dryers, and other appliances are available.

They are attempting to establish a model prisoner hostel.

The insider believed Josh may be getting special treatment because of his celebrity status behind bars, as he does not have the qualifications to live in the dorm.

Josh doesn’t seem to be employed, but they are allowing him to stay because he is pursuing a degree.

They have chosen to waive the rules that would have prevented him from residing there due to his experience at SHU a few years ago.

Josh was placed in solitary confinement, also known as the Special Housing Unit at FCI Seagoville, in February 2023 after he brought a cell phone into the facility.

In March of the same year, he was discharged from the SHU.

When The U.S. Sun asked Seagoville for comment on the opulent dorm, a spokeswoman replied, “Unfortunately, FCI Seagoville does not comment on conditions of confinement.”

‘INHUMANE CONDITIONS’

However, The U.S. Sun commented on the “inhumane conditions” of the prison in spite of the “luxurious” facilities.

A source close to a Seagoville prisoner told The U.S. Sun that they have been receiving half quantities of meals for months.

They’re giving them ridiculous portions of deli meat, half buns, grits, and little portions of corn.

It’s crazy; people are forced to purchase food from the commissary or risk going hungry.

“Loved ones’ complaints have not been addressed.

“FCI Seagoville provides all Adults in Custody with food that is consistent with the National Food Menu, including portion size,” Seagoville said in response to a request for comment from The U.S. Sun.

“We thoroughly analyze any complaints regarding the organization and services rendered, and we take them very seriously.

“Currently, FCI Seagoville has not received any complaints regarding any aspect of the institution’s Food Service Department.”

Additionally, the source previously informed The U.S. Sun that the food they receive frequently expires. They’re always at least a few weeks old, and they’re just fucking disgusting. It’s also similar to milk. a variety of items that cannot be kept for that long.

They had a batch of cereal that was contaminated with bugs, making it impossible for anybody to eat it.

The insider went on to claim that food runs out at the prison rather frequently.

According to the source, The meals are tiny enough that you will go hungry if you cannot afford to buy food on commissary, but it has only ever been one or two days at a time.

A recent lawsuit from a prisoner who accused the establishment of serving food contaminated with maggots was previously obtained by the U.S. Sun.

“I write this letter to formally demand an immediate cessation of all inhumane treatment and actions taken against myself at the Federal Correctional Institution Seagoville, as alleged by denied medical services and food stored next to trash, and under 2000 cal per day meals,” inmate Jua-Deno Peterson claimed in his lawsuit against FCI Seagoville, which was filed on February 26, 2024.

The email concluded, “This letter is intended to put you on notice and to demand that these actions that violate human rights and dignity at the facility be stopped immediately.”

He mentioned a purported occurrence on October 24, 2023, in which an inmate talked about how meals included maggots in another email.

According to reports, Jua-Deno overheard another prisoner “talking about the food trays that had maggots in them” and said that other prisoners ought to have “saved the trays with maggots.”

Meals are supplied in the proper serving portions in accordance with the national menu, the warden’s secretary replied via email, which was included in the complaint. You can cop-out to Food Service if you have any questions about additional food service.

The action was formally dismissed on May 16 after FCI Seagoville failed to reply.

Over the years, there have also been some assaults at the institution.

JOSH’S LEGAL TROUBLES

In April 2021, Josh was taken into custody and accused with receiving and possessing child pornography.

Prior to his trial in December 2021, he was under house arrest.

In May 2022, Josh received a sentence of 151 months in federal prison; in June of the same year, he was moved to FCI Seagoville.

In order to reverse the conviction and hold a fresh trial in October 2022, Josh’s legal team filed an appeal.

In one of the points, they said that during a raid at hiscarlot a year and a half prior to the arrest, federal authorities allegedly confiscated Josh’s phone when he attempted to call his lawyer.

He allegedly spoke with the agents without legal representation, according to court documents.

The November 2023 decision rejected the appeal.

In 2024, the Supreme Court formally rejected the conviction appeal.
