When it came to light that Josh Duggar had molested five young girls when he was 14 years old, his parents Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar sat down with Fox News’ Megyn Kelly to talk about the scandal. Jill and her younger sister Jessa Duggar also spoke to the reporter as two of Josh’s victims.

“We didn’t choose to come out and tell our story,” Jill said during the interview as Jessa, 22, nodded in agreement. “But now that this story has been brought about, we really feel like—as we’ve been seeing these headlines—we feel like, as victims, we have to come out and speak. This is something that we chose to do. Nobody asked us to do this. Most of the stuff out there is lies. It’s not true. And so for truth’s sake we want to set the record straight.”
