A new report claims that 19 Kids and Counting star Josh Duggar was named in an underage sexual abuse probe.

According to InTouch, Josh's father Jim Bob turned him in to Arkansas State Police after 'he caught him leaving a young girl’s bedroom and learned something inappropriate happened.'

The charge being pursued at that time was sexual assault in the fourth degree.

Allegations: A new report claims that 19 Kids and Counting star Josh Duggar (above with wife Anna) was named in an underage sexual abuse probe

Claims: Jim Bob Duggar (above with wife Michelle) allegedly turned his son in to Arkansas State Police after 'he caught him leaving a young girl’s bedroom and learned something inappropriate happened'

The state trooper who took the report in 2005 however never followed up with Josh, and then was arrested himself and 'convicted on child pornography charges.'

He is serving 56 years in prison. In the wake of the trooper's arrest, someone in the police department reportedly contacted the Child Abuse Hotline, leading to Crimes Against Children Division and Springdale Police Department involving themselves in the case.

At that point however, the statue of limitations had passed.

'A technicality prevented any further action,” a source told the magazine.

'That’s been the biggest regret in all of this.'

Another source backed up this story, saying; 'I saw and read the report and it clearly stated that Jim Bob brought his son Josh into the Arkansas State Police and spoke to a state trooper about Josh’s involvement in alleged inappropriate touching with a minor.'
