Alleged Victims’ Names Will Be Sealed In Josh Duggar’s Child Porn Case, Prosecutors Turn Over Evidence To Reality Star's Lawyers

The names of the alleged victims involved in Josh Duggar’s child pornography case will not be revealed to the public.
According to court documents obtained by Breaking Celebrity News, prosecutors and Duggar have agreed to a protective order as part of his criminal case.
In April, Duggar was arrested by The Department of Homeland Security on charges relating to possessing pornography materials featuring children as young as 5. In the indictment, the feds say the reality star had over 200 disgusting images on a computer he used.
While Duggar entered a not guilty plea, the case is still moving forward in federal court. Recently, the government said they would hand over evidence to Duggar’s legal team as long as they agreed to certain conditions.
Both parties agreed that any minor victim or witness’s name and information about their school, social media name/handle, home address, and birth date will be redacted.
Further, any photos of visual depictions will be sealed from the court record. Duggar’s team has been ordered that “any publicly filed or disseminated documents that refer to any minor victim or witness shall do so by a generic name, such as 'Minor Victim 1.'"
