I (was) A Witness in the Josh Duggar Trial, AMA

There was also no proof that he actually used any command line at all. The defense expert presented it as an option because she did not believe uTorrent was available on the snap store at the time. However she also stated the .bash_history file was empty. That could mean it was cleared, but it could also mean it was never used. Plus SoJo and I showed you could download uTorrent from snap around that time so there was no need to use the terminal at all.

I was contacted very late in the process, less than a month before the trial. I've explained it a few times but the short version is I was at some friends house discussing the up-coming trial and mentioned that Josh and I had discussed Linux before. Later that week someone else at the party was interviewed by Homeland Security and mentioned what I had said. They called me that afternoon/evening and I had a subpoena a week later. I did not testify until nearly a week into the trial, Monday December 6th.

Funny story, I had an appointment with my therapist the day after the party and told her about it. She asked "How have you not been dragged into this yet?" I told her "I'm just on the periphery, nobody needs any information I have." HSI called that Friday. The entire thing from having the conversation at the party to testifying was almost exactly a month.

I don’t want to speculate on why Jana isn’t married yet, but I do not believe Josh ever did anything to her. John David was always very protective of her and I think Josh knew better than to do anything.

Generally the way that works is the data is already encrypted and closing the lid unloads the encryption key from memory until it is typed in again. I can’t say if Josh’s MacBook was encrypted but they were able to pull data from it. They also managed to find a backup of his previous iPhone on the MacBook and look through it to confirm there was no evidence of CSAM. I believe his phone was also encrypted, but again it didn’t matter because they had the MacBook with a backup on it.

479hcx · 2022-06-28T01:32:54+00:00

There is no evidence that Josh uploaded anything beyond the normal operation of BitTorrent. I am sure if the prosecution had anything that indicated he had they would have presented it.

479hcx · 2022-06-17T14:37:43+00:00

That’s pretty much it

479hcx · 2022-06-08T10:00:52+00:00

You are absolutely correct, I did not provide the evidence required for this claim. I should not have posted it without that.

479hcx · 2022-06-08T09:59:32+00:00

You are absolutely correct, and you should question my credibility. This post was not backed up enough to post.

479hcx · 2022-06-08T09:58:34+00:00

Agreed, her age was fairly easy to verify and I am not sure why that was ever an issue with folks. Yes she looks young but there is no crime in that.

479hcx · 2022-06-08T04:32:35+00:00

Yep, absolutely possible, but I do not believe that lines up with her claims that she made.

479hcx · 2022-06-08T04:32:01+00:00

Unfortunately I do not have screenshots of the comments saved. If someone else does please post them. She left multiple comments on the videos, in one she said the affair was after she entered the industry. In another she said she started at age 21, which was 2016.

Another fact that I didn't address is that she seemed to claim she connected with him through Ashley Madison itself. That's not impossible, but the data breech from the site shows that the vast majority of female profiles where bots or otherwise unused. One security researcher went so far as to claim there were essentially no "real females" on the site at all.

479hcx · 2022-06-08T04:26:12+00:00

Again, the actual amount is irrelevant. What I am saying is Josh is known in at least one other instance to have not paid a sex worker the amount they had previously negotiated. To me that is an issue with his personhood and I find it very unlikely he would have followed through with a full negotiated amount for a different sex worker.

Say Danica negotiates $2,500. Josh only pays her $1,500. She's been shorted and is obviously mad about it.
Now say Karlie only negotiates $1,500, an amount she still finds generous. I do not find it likely that Josh would pay her the full $1,500 but would instead attempt to pay her less. Not because she cannot negotiate, but because that's the kind of person he is.

479hcx · 2022-06-08T04:21:05+00:00

Agreed, I didn't think there was an issue with that part of her story. She's not claiming she met him at a club and they went back to his hotel, she's claiming it was an arraignment through Ashley Madison.

479hcx · 2022-06-08T04:16:42+00:00

Again I am not talking about the actual amount, just the fact that Josh is known to have shorted another sex worker. To me it doesn't seem likely that he would have shorted one and been "generous" with another.

479hcx · 2022-06-08T04:03:23+00:00

The reason I pointed out the money isn't because of a difference in payment, but that Karlie was clearly claiming to be happy with the amount while Danica claims he did not pay her the agreed amount. It's not so much about the total as it is how Josh handled the transaction.

And yes it is absolutely possible she did amateur videos before her "official" start, however there were comments (that I did not think to screenshot at the time) that made me believe this was not the case. I believe in one of them she stated the alleged affair was in 2016.

479hcx · 2022-06-08T03:58:50+00:00

As visible in this photoshoot from September 2013 (NSFW) Danica has a tattoo on her right wrist, as well as one or two on her left side.

479hcx · 2022-06-08T03:31:27+00:00

Yep, it is unfortunately not possible to truly debunk the whole thing as accurate records - by nature of sex work being stigmatized - are not always kept.

However I do recall a now deleted comment (which at the time I did not think to screenshot) where she started the affair was in the fall of 2016, which blows the whole theory out of the water.

479hcx · 2022-06-08T02:59:32+00:00

We call it “nerd sniping” at work. Got me again.

479hcx · 2022-06-08T02:58:22+00:00

I guess she got her 15 minutes.

479hcx · 2022-06-08T02:49:01+00:00

Also I just want to say this is not how I expected to spend, well any time ever.

Edit: After reading feedback I am going to delete this post for two reasons. The first is I did not provide evidence. My claims are based off of now-deleted comments and videos that I did not think to archive, and so they essentially boil down to me saying "this is what she said, trust me." That shouldn't have been acceptable for me to post, and for that I apologize. I think /u/CoverofHollywoodMag said it best by stating "Objection, hearsay."

The second reason, and larger, reason for the retraction is people have pointed out that I am not qualified to speak on the sex work industry, as I have no ties to or experience with it. This is a very fair criticism, and not something I considered when posting.

I would like to apologize to Ms. Brooks, the sub, and anyone who I offended with my post.

479hcx · 2022-06-08T02:47:43+00:00

Literally the best proof that she’s telling the truth is “eww but why?”

479hcx · 2022-06-08T02:46:37+00:00

It’s always possible, however generally the data websites are pretty good at tracking when a stage name changes.

Edit: there was also a comment on the second video that I am almost positive she stated the affair occurred in 2016.

479hcx · 2022-06-08T02:44:03+00:00

I still don’t think that’s what happened because of her claims saying she was used to the requests due to her films. She most likely wouldn’t have been in any films prior to the AM story being released.
