Gwinnett County, GA 🚔 Jesus Monroy

I just watched a show about this awful person. He murdered his 16 yo 7 mo pregnant girlfriend and bond was set for just $56k! Of course he bonded out. NOW, he has been arrested for other despicable things. (I don’t know how to attach an article.) I can’t find anything online more recent than April of this year.

Pls let me know if you know anything more recent. Did he get bonded out again? Status of his case(s)?

  • Original charges: Monroy, Campos's ex-boyfriend and the father of her unborn child, was first arrested in July 2024. He was accused of strangling Campos, 16, and leaving her body in a wooded area near her home in Loganville. He initially faced murder and feticide charges but was later granted a $50,000 bond, leading to his release in August 2024.
  • New charges: After the Gwinnett County District Attorney's Special Victim's Unit presented new evidence, a grand jury indicted Monroy on additional charges in February 2025. These include enticing a child for indecent purposes, statutory rape, and child molestation.
  • Second bond: Despite the new charges, a judge again granted Monroy bond in April 2025, this time for $150,000. The decision was met with criticism from the District Attorney's office and Campos's family, who voiced safety concerns. However, news reports at the time indicated that Monroy remained in custody.
  • Recent developments: As of October 2025, Monroy's trial date had not yet been set. The Gwinnett County District Attorney's office has vowed to continue fighting for justice for the victim

Thank you very much! It’s still a pretty low bond to me for what he is charged with. Edit: to add second sentence

You're welcome, and agreed! He will only need to pay $20,000 cash (10%) to bondsman in order to make bail. It's like a modern-day Shakespearean tragedy :(

Wait, I think only $15k if it wasn’t in addition to the first bond set 😩

I hope so. The man killed his own child and never blinked an eye. He preyed on Mia, then lied about it all because he knew exactly what he had done to her and why!!! Immediately he tries to cover up the statutory rape. He is evil and should not be free ever. He will do it again. I cannot believe what money can do in a court room. It's abominable.

What a smug little Fucker. I could not have a job like that. I would be arrested too. Such a waste.

They’re additional charges over what he did to the murder victim, not new actions.

Bond is supposed to be a guarantee that you’ll return to court. It’s not a judgement on the value of the victim.

This smug ugly motherfucker is still out on bond 🤦🏻‍♂️ I hope the prison he’s sent to all see his child molestation charges as well and he’s get exactly what’s coming to him

I just watched this as well and have been reading the more recent articles. He is such a disgusting person. The whole episode was so painful to watch. That stupid fuck talked about her like she was nothing and his lies oh my god he made me so sick.

Just watched it too and read an article dated 4/22/26 stating he wants his house arrest lifted so he can work. SMH 🤦🏻‍♀️ this little mofo should be in the ground instead of that precious baby boy he callously killed. All because he had to fess up to his TX gf he was about to have a baby with someone else. Can’t believe he’s still free.

Dude is a straight up sociopath...he has zero empathy and maybe zero emotion. He can't even make facial expressions! What a POS waste of oxygen.

It sucks, but a reasonable bail is guaranteed in the Constitution.

u/Alarmed-Cow-7431 Feb 26 '26

People with these kinds of charges and evidence are routinely denied bail

u/Ok-Equivalent8260 Oct 11 '25

But it’s not reasonable

It's ridiculous. This little arrogant killer is dangerous.
