Jana Duggar's charge of endangering the welfare of a child settled outside of court

Jana Duggar's charge of endangering the welfare of a child has been adjudicated, Fox News can exclusively report.

News of Jana's charge came to light in December, just one day after her older brother, Josh Duggar, was convicted on two counts of receiving and possessing child pornography. Jana broke her silence on the charge last month, explaining that one of the children she was babysitting escaped outdoors alone. She described it as an "accident."

"The raw facts: I was babysitting a few months ago when one of the children wandered outside alone. A passerby who saw [the] child called the police. This resulted in a written citation, as well as a follow-up with child welfare who concluded that it was an accident and the child was unharmed," Jana's statement about the matter began in an Instagram Story.
