Follow-up: Former judge Dupuy in isolation at Galveston County Jail

GALVESTON — Former county court judge Christopher Dupuy remained jailed Friday on charges alleging he posted photos of ex-girlfriends on a website advertising their services as escorts.

According to court records Dupuy, who was jailed on charges of online harassment and online impersonation, requested a court-appointed attorney. In the request, Dupuy claims he has no money in his bank accounts, despite claims he makes about $1,000 a week as an attorney.

He is jailed on bonds totaling $600,000.

Galveston County Sheriff Henry Trochessett said Dupuy was being kept isolated in a cell “for his own protection” because “there may be some people in the jail he put in there.”
