Here's my break down of today's closing arguments in #JoshDuggar's trial. I had to sit in the overflow room for the first half of the day.
Judge Brooks started by reminding the jury to make a decision based on the facts and without sympathy or prejudice.

Here's what the prosecution had to prove to the jury beyond a reasonable doubt.

We just conducted the largest survey ever done of evangelical women’s marital & sexual satisfaction for our new book The Great Sex Rescue. One of the things we were looking at was the teaching, “women should have frequent sex with their husbands to keep them from watching porn."
In November 2019, Focus on the Family, in their broadcast, said the reason men watch porn is that women aren’t having enough sex. Every Man’s Battle (the book series sold 4,000,000 copies) told women they were like a “merciful vial of methadone” for him when he’s quitting porn.
