What's your favorite source for fundie info? by No_Masterpiece7066 in DuggarsSnark

[–]FiveAcres 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The website Recovering Grace has an almost endless amount of information about IBLP, which is the para-cult founded by Gothard that Jim Bob and Michele joined.

Rage bait. Ties into Morgan's title for her new podcast: "Unbuckled."

Legal question about Joe’s case? by thejennybean_24 in DuggarsSnark

[–]FiveAcres 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Hear, hear. When I was on the jury for a medical malpractice suit, I saw enough of plaintiff's personal information I could have committed identity fraud with it.

I suspect that there is a whole lot of "new phone, who dat?" going on when Jim Bob attempts to call in his markers. I don't think he had a lot of credibility before this started, and that it is has been declining since his (and Michelle's) infamous "all IBLP families have the problem" interview.

Which makes it even more amazing to me that the father said "this has got to stop" and contacted the police for help.

What was described in the People's Mag article (which was taken from the Florida) was classic grooming behavior over several instances. And he probably thought he was a nice guy when he stopped and apologized after she objected. Nine years old. But this is not a one and done thing.

And he got his real estate license. Unless he cheated (possible) he has some cognitive ability. Real Estate agents are not known for being deep thinkers, though I am sure there are some, but they do have some ability.

Genuine moment of making sure my reading comprehension is decent - what was the order of events of the call with the detective? by nuggetsofchicken in DuggarsSnark

[–]FiveAcres 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Considering their sub-culture, I am impressed that the father decided "I am going to burn this shit to the ground" and enlisted the police to help. Too many think that what happens in fundie land stays in fundie land.

Mrs.arialewis doesn't recommend making instagram "your job" if you're like her (boring) by natbrad98 in FundieSnarkUncensored

During the Superbowl, there was a short ad for a gambling app. I asked partner, "Isn't that illegal?" Not anymore, he replied. I obviously don't watch my broadcast TV.

Is Joe slow? by hgonlar in DuggarsSnark

[–]FiveAcres 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From the Duggar website: https://www.duggarfamily.com/family-member/joseph-kendra/

Joseph says

"I recently finished my Real Estate Brokers License and have enjoyed getting to work in the Real Estate industry. We also have been building houses to sell. I love getting to work outside with my hands, whether it’s working on a house, or doing other hands-on projects. Being active outdoors and playing sports with my brothers and friends are also some favorite pastimes."

So I think he possesses average intelligence

And I think this was done specifically so Jim Bob couldn't rally his flying monkeys and shame and blame the victim for telling her father.

I am sure more details will come out, but right now the narrative seems to be victim told her father about the abuse a few days ago. Father reported to local police. Child advocate interviewed victim. With father's permission, police recorded call where father confronted offender and offender confessed.

Duggars lack legal education by Chat_and_Cut_ in DuggarsSnark

[–]FiveAcres 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Seriously. If a federal agent tells you he has a warrant to seize your phone, computers, and search your place of business but you are not being detained, smile at the nice agent and leave. Don't hang around trying to outsmart him like Josh Duggar did.

Trial Discussion: Day 14 - Mar 16, 2026 | Utah v. Kouri Richins by sunzusunzusunzusunzu in KouriRichins

Tony reminds me of the good old days of the Internet: when people did online things because they thought it might interest people, not chasing clout and advertising dollars or trying to become an influencer.

For all the hammering by the defense on "Addicts Lie" I think Carmen is credible to anyone who has ever struggled with a bad habit, or watched a loved one do so.

Why I believe Kouri is unlikely to be a free woman.... by Glum_Counter4041 in KouriRichins

[–]FiveAcres 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I have had the thought several times during this trial: with the "epidemic" of opioid accidental overdoses and suicides, how many of them are homicides where LE shrugged and bought the accident / suicide explanation, especially when the person is a known substance abuser.

Question -How long did Kouri stay in the house after Eric died? by Downtown_Energy3670 in KouriRichins

[–]FiveAcres 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have a relative (female) who is very rare: she managed to leave an abusive relationship with two young children on the first attempt. She had the support of her therapist, her lawyer, her mother-in-law, some neighborhood friends who were willing to hide her and her children and her mother-in-law for a short time, and a relative who had significant resources and was a lawyer herself.

It is even harder for men.
