Josh Duggar Checks Into 'Rehab'

The kind of rehab facility he was sent to is quite mysterious.

This morning the Duggar family published a statement saying that Josh Duggar had checked himself into a "long term rehabilitation center."

It's all a little mysterious:

We are so thankful for the outpouring of love, care and prayers for our family during this most difficult situation with Josh. As parents we are so deeply grieved by our son’s decisions and actions. His wrong choices have deeply hurt his precious wife and children and have negatively affected so many others. He has also brought great insult to the values and faith we hold dear. Yesterday Josh checked himself into a long-term treatment center. For him it will be a long journey toward wholeness and recovery. We pray that in this he comes to complete repentance and sincere change. In the meantime, we will be offering our love, care and devoted support to Anna and our grandchildren as she also receives counsel and help for her own heart and future. During this time we continue to look to God—He is our rock and comfort. We ask for your continued prayers for our entire family.

Gawker tracked the flight path of younger brother Josh David Duggar's plane and found it landing in Rockford, Illinois last night before turning right around and heading back to Arkansas.

But it turns out that the Duggars actually have have a history, with one particular Christian-based addiction facility right in Rockford itself. As they themselves noted in this Facebook postfrom October of 2014, Reformers Unanimous (RU) is an “incredible... addiction program.”

Good luck with that, Duggars.
