Patheos is reporting that the leader of the Christian rehab center where Josh Duggar is getting help was involved in protecting an accused sexual predator from prosecution.

Duggar has purportedly sought treatment at Reformers Unanimous — a facility run by North Love Baptist Church. The pastor of North Love Baptist, Paul Kingsbury, helped a man accused of sexual assault remain on a religious mission overseas to avoid prosecution in the United States, according to Patheos.

Richard DeVall, a missionary currently serving in Bolivia with Baptist Pioneer Mission Agency, was accused of committing sexual assault in the 1990s on the campus of Bob Jones University (BJU), according to Patheos. DeVall was expelled as a result of the allegations, but then readmitted.

The victim went to authorities in 2012 with the accusations. Shortly thereafter, DeVall contacted her asking for her forgiveness.

The victim contacted Baptist Pioneer Mission Agency, asking that DeVall be removed from fieldwork because of the risk he posed to others. When she requested DeVall be returned to the United States to face criminal charges, she was told the missionary agency would protect him. DeVall then refused to return to the U.S., insisting the matter would be handled “in the Biblical way.”

Kingsbury’s church is DeVall’s “sending” or sponsoring church, according to Patheos.

Patheos cites two unnamed sources that say Kingsbury was made aware of sexual assault allegations against DeVall, but that he continues to support his mission regardless

    Doesn’t sound like re-hab, more like a witness (predator) protection program

    My concern is for his girls. He has a history of molesting underage girls and does his wife allow him unsupervised time with these potential victims.

      You know he has already duggared his own kids and this preacher sees nothing wrong with “biblical” male dominance and rape.

    STONE HIM, that is as biblical as it gets.

    ” the matter will be handled “in the Biblical way.”…
    Meaning, nothing will become of it…
    Or she will have to marry her assailant..

    Good thing the sexual assault did not result in a pregnancy, or she would be forced to bear the child within her lions..(Mike Huckabee)

    This is the face of a sexual predator..

      Talk about your “Republican Rehab”.

    I remember the Catholic church had a place like this for decades. It was a retreat called “Servants of the Paraclete”, where child molesting priests were sent to get rehabilitated. Didn’t work out too well.

    Pastor Kingsbury and the Duggar Family have a history of helping sexual predators evade justice in common, and nobody can take that away from them, dammit!
