Is David going to jail?
We all know Jenelle Evans likes bad boys. While David is nowhere near as bad as her former boyfriends, he’s not completely innocent.
In March of last year, David happened to see his son out at the supermarket and went to give him a hug. Sounds harmless, right? Well, not when that hug violated a protective order.
David was found guilty and was sentenced to 60 days in jail. After appealing the decision and getting his court date pushed back, David finally went back to court on Monday, March 20th.

The sentence was given in September 2016, while Jenelle was pregnant with their child, Ensley. Many fans worried that David would be behind bars when Jenelle went into labor. Fortunately, this was not the case as David appealed the decision and given a new court date.
Jenelle took to Twitter to dish out some of the court details.

"The no contact order expires Oct. 22nd then he will be filing for visitation for his son that his ex is refusing to let David see. The judge found him guilty saying ‘an unwanted hug is a form of child abuse,’ same judge that granted the no contact order and that wrote up his custody papers when he had no way to even fight against his ex, the judge even knew this. she hates David. Wouldn’t even listen to a word Dustin had to say while he was speaking and she rolled her eyes at Dustin. How respectful," Jenelle said.

So why was there a protective order to begin with?
Radar reports that David and his ex-girlfriend were involved in a dispute that turned violent. In April 2014, David allegedly choked his then girlfriend while she was pregnant. According to court papers, he threatened her too.
“The Defendant did assault [name redacted], a female person, by grabbing the victim around the throat and saying to the victim, ‘I will kill you b****,’” court documents read.
