So does Josh have any access to money/credit cards, or does JB control all of Josh and Anna's money because subscription fees to Ashley Madison?

Would any bank legally let JB do that? Especially since (I assume)  Josh and Anna had their own back account before. 

[Chickenbutt]

If JB has enough control over Josh, he could have made him close all his bank accounts and give up his credit cards. The banks don't care. Maybe JB had Josh transfer all his money to the "family" account. Who knows? JB can control anything Josh and Anna will allow him to control. JB may have given Josh an ultimatum, give me control over all your money or......whatever. Control freak that JB is and as repentant as Josh wants to appear, this could very well have happened.

I know none of this to be true...just pure speculation.

ETA: Anyone can add anyone to their bank account.

[Jiraffe]

Yup, anyone can be joint on a bank account with anyone else. I've worked for a bank for the last 5 years, and it's not uncommon to see adult children have their parents on their accounts, either because they just have forever and are too lazy to change it, or because the parent still gives them money from time to time. At least here in Canada, either account holder can close a joint account at any time, and access all the funds in it for any reason. As well they can see all transactions through the account. 

Credit cards work a bit differently; generally the secondary cardholder can't see the transactions of the primary cardholder, and vice versa. But if Josh had JB set up as power of attorney for whatever reason with his bank, JB could easily have access to all that information. 

Also...I just realized, A DUGGAR HAD CREDIT CARDS?!??!?!! I realize it's basically a necessity nowadays, but...wasn't that part of JB's whole no debt thing? Weren't credit cards ebil and worldly?? Gasp!

[grandmadugger]

I have a perfect explanation to all of this.  Yes, that is Josh but he didn't steal anything.  Anna is currently working at the DG and he popped in to grab the debit card.  Nothing to see here folks move along.

[calimojo]

the pic is blurry but around the mouth area, it doesn't look like Josh to me.  The hair seems darker than his too.  Other than that though it looks similar, and when you see the picture with the Waller Family the weight is similar too.    I would not want Anna and her children to have to face yet another scandal, though it would be quite a story

 

[SassyPants]

The ears look the most different to me.

[MsSaylor]

Is there anyone in the local area monitoring this? I want to know either way! I really dont understand why Josh would do this and am really hoping its not him. That would just be sad really. But something bout that picture...it just freaking looks like him. I think the size, the hairline, the fact hes wearing dark sunglasses, the stubble and something about the stance/posture is just very Joshly. I hope its not. 

[calimojo]

someone on Pickles page posted a side by side of Josh and this picture and it is almost enough to change my mind that it is josh.  Really hope it isn't just for the kids. But when you see those pics together it is a very eery resemblance.

 

The picture they used is with Josh in a bright red t shirt and he is near a military vehicle.  I think it may be from when they went to an Air show last summer.

The photo is off of their facebook page from what I can tell.  People are commenting on other photos that the one they shared earlier looks like Josh and they think he lives in the area.

It is; the SPD deleted the post off of their page.

[calimojo]

Thank you Choralcrusader! 

 

If anyone goes to pickles site,  scroll through all of the comments  made under her post about the Springdale Police department picture.  You can see the 2 pictures of Josh in the red shirt, and then the picture of the thief.  MIght not be the same guy, but they are  quite similar.

I wonder which tabloid will pick this up and run with it?

Well if it is him it will be public record. I guess. All a bit weird for sure.

[Chickenbutt]

Unfortunately, even if it isn't him, I would not be surprised to see something in one or more of the tabloids about this.

true,  Fake news and all!    

 

all kidding aside though,  it probably will make one of the really low quality tabloids.  And in trut, it probably isn't Josh.  I mean, chubby balding angry white guys in Arkansas are probably not all rare.  Probably a lot of men could look like Josh in a grainy surveillance video. 

 

I don't really care what happens to Josh, but i feel badly for his children.  It is unlikely that he has changed much for the better, but for the sake of his kids, I hope he has.   And for Anna too, though she is less a victim than the kids.

Chubby balding white guy is about as common as "25-40 white male wearing jeans, baseball cap, and a camo jacket" that's half the population of middle america. 

[Chickenbutt]

To be clear....I didn't mean unfortunately for Josh, but for his kids and Anna. To go through all they have been through and then to see the tabloids wondering if Josh is a thief as well as all the other things he is, would be heartbreaking for Anna and the kids.

[2manyKidzzz]

Well the tabloids can't really speculate that it is Josh aren't there laws for slander.......really.

[Chickenbutt]

@2manyKidzzzI really don't know what the legalities are. Guess we will wait and see.

[eveandadam]

I wonder when, and if at all, Josh will give his first interview post-scandals

[SassyPants]

Their only hope is for J and A to write a tell all book, move away and seek alternative employment. Josh could drive a bus or truck for a living.

That's a very good question and I doubt that there is a good answer. Maybe in a few years when the scandals have gone from being front and centre in the minds of people. It will be bringing it back up but Josh can really talk about what he has learned from staying away from the spotlight and how he wants to help, people like him. Who have trapped themselves in Satan's hidden fortress.

I actually don't know how they will spin it, if they will ever be able to.

[Bad Wolf]

I think if Josh does do an interview, it will center around Ashley Madison and on line porn addiction. I don't think he would discuss the  molestation,because he was just a young curious boy. (Sarcasm font needed.) 

[KelseyAnn]

The noses are different, too. I would bet good money that it isn't him.
