Josh Duggar served half-portions of grits and bread inside Texas prison as inmates are forced to buy food or ‘go hungry’

At FCI Seagoville in Dallas, Texas, convicts like Josh Duggar are forced to visit the commissary to prevent starvation because they are only receiving half quantities of bread, grits, and other food.

Josh, 36, is incarcerated in FCI Seagoville in Dallas, Texas, for 151 months on accusations of child pornography.

The date of his release is October 2, 2032.

Since the disgraced reality star must visit the jail commissary to prevent starvation, the U.S. Sun is the only outlet allowed to disclose his daily meals.

For months, they have been receiving half portions of food, according to a source close to a Seagoville prisoner who spoke to The U.S. Sun. They are being given strange amounts of food, like tiny servings of maize, half buns, and a few ounces of deli meat.

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

“Loved ones’ complaints have not been addressed.

A request for response from The U.S. Sun was not immediately answered by a Seagoville spokesperson.

‘REGULARLY EXPIRED’

There have been previous allegations of cruel circumstances in the prison’s food service.

The food they receive frequently expires, the source previously told The U.S. Sun. 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.

As previously reported by the U.S. Sun, a prisoner filed a recent lawsuit accusing the facility of “inhumane conditions.”

“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 lawsuit was not answered by FCI Seagoville.

Instead, the court said, It has been brought to the knowledge of the Court that the Plaintiff is no longer under the custody of the Bureau of Prisons (BOP) or confined at FCI Seagoville.

But the plaintiff hasn’t told the court where he lives now. Shortly after the complaint was filed, on February 28, 2024, the Court advised the Plaintiff that if they did not notify the Court of any change in residence, the case could be dismissed.

On May 16, the case was formally dropped.

THANKSGIVING FEAST

Inmates received a Thanksgiving supper despite the claimed poor dietary conditions.

According to the U.S. Sun, the holiday feast had 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.

There was also margarine and a variety of pies for dessert.

JOSH’S LEGAL TROUBLES

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

After a trial in Arkansas that lasted almost two weeks, he was found guilty.

Josh was moved to FCI Seagoville in June 2022 after receiving a 151-month sentence in May.

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

When Josh attempted to call his lawyer during a raid at his carlot a year and a half before to the arrest, federal authorities allegedly confiscated his phone, according to his attorneys.

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

The Supreme Court formally rejected the conviction appeal in 2024 after rejecting the appeal in November 2023.

FAMILY SUPPORT

Josh is still wed to his 36-year-old wife, Anna, who supported him during the trial.

She and their seven small children have been spotted visiting the institution.

Josh’s brother Joseph and brother-in-law David Waller were also spotted visiting him at the prison, according to an earlier story by the U.S. Sun.
