There are contradictory reports this morning about how the Duggar family is under investigation by Homeland Security.
Agents reportedly raided the Arkansas home of Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar. A spokesperson from Washington D.C confirmed on Tuesday, “Homeland Security Investigations was present at the Duggar home pursuant to an on-going federal criminal investigation.” (KNWA-TV, Arkansas)
Homeland Security agents investigate a wide range of crimes, including money laundering, human trafficking, weapons smuggling and transnational gang activity.
However, the 19 Kids and Counting reality show family denied in a statement they were raided. “To the best of our knowledge, it's also not true that any member of our family is the target of any investigation. Living a life in the public's eye has taught us that it is best not to reply to every rumor and piece of ‘fake news.’” (E! News)
