During the proceeding, a Bridgeport Assistant State Attorney requested the protective orders for the alleged victims, which was granted.
Peck, a Litchfield County resident of Thomaston, was arrested on Monday, Nov. 8 by Bridgeport Police for allegedly sexually abusing the two students, according to Scott Appleby, director of Emergency Management for Bridgeport.
