After he pleaded guilty in 3rd District Court in June to aggravated assault, a third-degree felony, Ex-Florida Gator Teddy Dupay was sentenced Monday to serve 30 days in the Summit County jail.

Dupay, who lives in Salt Lake County, started as a guard for the University of Florida when the school’s basketball team played in the 2000 NCAA championship game. Dupay, 30, was accused of attacking a woman at Stein Eriksen Lodge in June 2008. Dupay also pleaded guilty to threat against life and intoxication, which are both misdemeanors. He was initially charged with three first-degree felonies for rape, aggravated kidnapping and aggravated sexual assault, which each could have carried a sentence of up to life in prison.

“I’m very apologetic,” Dupay told Judge Bruce Lubeck at a sentencing hearing Monday. “I certainly made a mistake that I won’t make again.”

The case captured national attention because of notoriety Dupay, a Florida native, gained as a college hoops star.

“Mr. Dupay comes from a prominent family,” Dupay attorney Ed Brass told Lubeck. “It has been totally humiliating for him and that has had a curative effect.”

Still, Summit County prosecutor Paul Christensen said he wanted Dupay locked up for 90 days. The victim claimed Dupay hit and kicked her about 150 times. Investigators said she had bruises, scratches and a swollen eye after the attack in the condo.

“There was a hospital visit,” Christensen said. “There was physical injury.”

On Monday, the victim told Lubeck Dupay shouldn’t be sent to jail. The names of assault victims are usually not published in The Park Record.

“This has been a long, drawn-out, bad experience I don’t think [Dupay] is a bad person,” the victim said in court. “I think in a lot of ways, just with the publicity of it, that he suffered a lot.”

Meanwhile, a report from Adult Probation and Parole recommended Dupay not be sent to jail.

“They gave serious consideration to what took place here,” Brass said about the recommendation.

The victim, with whom Dupay has had a relationship, has recently tried to reach Dupay despite a no-contact order from the court, Brass said.

“She continues to attempt to contact him through text messages,” the attorney added. “[Dupay] has not responded to these texts. I told him not to, and he hasn’t.”

In an interview outside the courtroom, Christensen said the no-contact order remains in place.

“Am I happy with the result? I’m satisfied,” Christensen said about the sentence.

The judge also ordered Dupay to pay an $800 fine, serve 36 months of probation and complete courses in anger management and domestic violence.
