Last Friday, police in Rosenberg, where Espinoza resides, said their traffic division pulled him over under suspicion of a potential bond violation.
According to police, traffic units learned that Espinoza may have been operating vehicles without an Interlock device, which is a breathalyzer that prevents or allows drivers from starting a car based on their blood-alcohol level.

Espinoza was taken into custody for driving while his license was invalid. Police also sent bond violation information to the Galveston County courts.
During a court appearance on Thursday, a judge ruled to revoke Espinoza's bond because of the violation. He was taken back into custody in the courtroom and booked into the Galveston County Jail.
With his bond revoked, Espinoza will have to remain in jail until his trial.
