Duggar Couple Alleges Nephew's $8.5k Car Purchase Led to Custody Loss

Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar's nephew, Tyler Hutchins, acquired an $8,500 car while under their legal guardianship, according to court documents. The couple submitted an accounting report to the court, revealing Tyler's finances before his biological grandparents gained custody. The report showed Tyler had $231.64 in his bank account and a 2007 Chevy Duramax valued at $8,500. Jim Bob and Michelle agreed to give up custody of Tyler in September, and his grandparents petitioned the court to become his guardians. Tyler's story was featured on TLC's Counting On, and the Duggars had previously shared birthday wishes for him on social media.
