Son of Dog the Bounty Hunter’s new girlfriend Justin Bihag arrested and jailed

FORMER Dog the Bounty Hunter star Justin Bihag has been arrested and jailed - just weeks after he was convicted of strangling his ex, The Sun can exclusively reveal.

Justin, 36, who appeared in the show for several years, and is also the son of new girlfriend Moon Angell, was arrested in Jefferson County, Colorado on Sunday night for allegedly violating his parole.

He was booked into Jefferson County Jail and was bailed out on Tuesday.

Justin, who has a lengthy rap sheet, had only just been sentenced in November for strangulation and assault charges following an attack on his ex girlfriend - and had received a two-year deferred sentence.

Sources revealed how Dog's daughter Lyssa Chapman called cops after she learned that Justin was allegedly drinking and doing drugs - which is a breach of his parole terms.

Last night Lyssa, who has been publicly critical of Moon and Dog's relationship, told The Sun that it was nothing personal - but "criminals need to be put in jail."

She said: "A girl reached out to me on social media and told me she'd been hanging out with Justin and how he'd been drinking and getting aggressive with her.

"On Sunday Justin started texting her again and when she went to see him he was drinking again.

"So I called the cops and alerted them to what was going on and they arrested him.

"I've been putting criminals in jail my whole career - that's what I do.

"I'm not ratting on anyone - this guy is a criminal and criminals need to be put in jail.

"And I will do the same for any woman anywhere in America - if you are being beaten by a man or having a problem like this - get in touch and I will do whatever I can to help.

"This is not personal and nothing to do with Moon and my dad.

"Justin has been a menace to society and my family for many years, I don't believe he contributes to society and he needs help.

"You mess with women, you mess with my family - this is what will happen."

Justin has a long rap sheet and once tried to sue Dog, whom he calls "uncle", claiming he had not paid him for show appearances.

In the 2014 lawsuit he claimed he had not been paid what he was owed for appearing of 42 episodes.

He claimed as a result he had lost custody of his child and become addicted to drugs, court papers read.

However the pair put their differences behind them and have been on good terms recently, often posting pictures together on social media.

In 2018 Justin was arrested on charges of theft, assault and fraud in Weld County, Colorado.

He has also faced charges of public order crimes, failure to appear in court and DUI, according to criminal records in Colorado - on top of his 2019 strangulation charge.

Jefferson County Sheriff's department confirmed he was arrested on Sunday and released from jail on Tuesday.

They added: "He was arrested on charges of violation of a protection order by the Edgewater Police Department."

His is due in court on February.

Following his arrest, Justin's mother Moon, Dog's new girlfriend, posted a video of her sat laid in Dog and Beth's marital bed, while Justin sat on a nearby chair - leaving his family disgusted.

In December, when she tweeted Moon: “You’re a disgusting woman. Any person who moves in on a man weeks after losing his wife, who you were supposed to be a 'friend ' to, is the lowest scum on the planet.

"Which for you wasn’t that far of a step down from where you were before. God will get you MARY!”

In an interview with Dog appeared to confirm the relationship, saying: “She [Moon] has been with my family through many ups and downs. All my children are grown and gone on their own, there’s no one left to help me!

“Moon is experienced. It’s just that. Who knows what my future holds, but right now I need her."
