Josh Kimbrell

An Upstate conservative radio host has been charged with criminal sexual conduct.

Josh Kimbrell, host of Common Cents on Christian Talk 660, is accused of inappropriately fondling his 3-year-old son, according to a warrant from the Greenville Police Department.

He was charged Tuesday and taken to the Greenville County jail. The warrant states that the incident took place Sept. 24.

Kimbrell, of 531 Caledon Court in Greenville, recently served as the emcee to a roundtable discussion with U.S. Sen. Ted Cruz at the Spartanburg Community College Downtown Campus.

“He hasn’t even been before a judge yet. We’re going to let things play out as far as the courts are concerned,” said Gary Miller, operations manager for Christian Talk.

Kimbrell’s radio show airs weekdays at 5 p.m.

Executive producer David Wilson led Kimbrell’s program Wednesday and discussed the charge with listeners.

He connected the accusations to a custody dispute involving Kimbrell’s ex-wife over their 3-year-old son.

“This really isn’t a story at all,” he said. “These are unbelievable, heartbreaking, heart-wrenching accusations.”
