Jill Duggar calls dad Jim Bob ‘verbally abusive’ & ‘TOXIC’ & admits she’s ‘prone to tears’ in explosive court testimony

JILL Duggar called her dad Jim Bob “verbally abusive” and “toxic,” as she admitted she is “prone to tears” in explosive court testimony. 

An Arkansas police report was released to the public in 2015, claiming dad Jim Bob, 56, confessed to local authorities that his eldest son Josh, 34, molested five young girls while they were asleep in the Duggar family home years prior.

Josh’s younger sisters Jill, 30, and Jessa, 29, came forward as two of the five alleged victims.

In May 2017, Jill and Jessa, along with younger sisters Jinger and Joy-Anna, who never came forward as victims, sued the City of Springdale, police department employees and other Defendants for invasion of privacy and more, claiming releasing the records caused "extreme mental anguish and emotional distress.” 

The case was dismissed ahead of trial, as a judge ruled that the sisters failed to prove the released report caused emotional distress.

JILL'S PAIN

In unsealed court records exclusively revealed by The Sun, Jill accused her estranged father of “verbal abuse."

The four sisters requested evidence related to their relationship with parents Jim Bob and Michelle be excluded because it has “no relevance” to the case. 

In the Defendant’s response, they claimed their “allegation of emotional distress opens the door to inquiries into their lives, including their relationship with the parents.”

The court filing claimed Jill is the only family member who has “sought any type of therapy or counseling following the release of the redacted police reports.”

The court papers continued that Jill and her husband , 33, even entered couple’s treatment because they were “going through some issues” with her family, and especially her father, regarding a “lack of boundaries” related to contractual concerns.

According to the court papers, Jill said during a Preliminary Psychological Opinion by Robert Wynne: “I saw a whole new side to my dad once my husband and I started making decisions that were best for our family, but not in his best interest. 

“Sadly, I realized he had become pretty controlling, fearful and reactionary. He was verbally abusive. Our relationship is not good. It got pretty toxic.

"We occasionally text on a family group thread, but I don’t feel comfortable being around him and just hanging out. It isn’t good for my mental health right now.”

The court papers continued: “They were asked to not to come over to the Duggars’ house without permission from her father and that her father did not approve of her having a nose ring, drinking alcohol, or wearing pants.”
