Kendra Duggar's No Contact Order Lifted: Reunification with Victims Approved
A judge has lifted the no contact order against Kendra Duggar, allowing her to reunite with the unnamed victims who requested it. Kendra, 27, entered a not guilty plea in her case against the State of Arkansas and her lawyer filed a motion to dissolve the no contact order on April 17. The alleged victims expressed a desire to have contact with Kendra and the judge approved the request, authorizing the Arkansas Department of Human Services to supervise and facilitate reunification between Kendra and the individuals previously covered by the order.
Kendra's arrest came shortly after her husband Joseph Duggar was taken into custody on molestation charges. Both Kendra and Joseph were charged with endangering the welfare of a minor and false imprisonment. Kendra's arrest is unrelated to Joseph's case, and the family spokesperson clarified that her misdemeanor charge is not connected to the Florida case. Following Joseph's release from jail, the couple has been reunited and they share four children.
Kendra's family expressed their distress over the situation and showed support for the young girl involved in the case. Despite the legal troubles, Kendra's family has stood by her and Joseph's side. A GoFundMe page was set up to raise funds for their moving and housing expenses.
