Montel Williams criticized Josh Duggar and his 19 Years and Counting family in a Twitter rant, following the allegations Duggar molested five girls, including his sisters, as a 14-year-old.
“Josh Duggar, a world class bigot, admits sexually abusing young girls – has consistently stated that LGBT folks r danger to kids,” read one tweet by Williams. “Gosh, yet another anti-gay alleged ‘Christian’ defender turns out to be a garden variety scumbag,” wrote Williams in another tweet.
Here’s a look at what Williams had to say on social media about Duggar’s alleged molestation incidents:

Josh Duggar has publicly apologized for the incidents, which recently came to light after a 2006 police report was published on InTouch. “Twelve years ago, as a young teenager I acted inexcusably for which I am extremely sorry and deeply regret,” he said in a statement.
Mike Huckabee has come out in defense of the Duggar family, saying people with “insensitive bloodthirst” have “enjoyed revealing this [sic] long ago sins” in order to discredit the Duggars.
