CONROE, TEXAS. \u2014 The Montgomery County Sheriff\u2019s Office is investigating allegations of sexual abuse after three women came forward earlier this year with claims spanning multiple decades.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
On May 8, 2026, deputies responded to the 18000 block of Cooper Road in Conroe for a report of alleged Indecency with a Child. When they arrived, three adult females disclosed that they had been allegedly sexually abused over a period of several years, with incidents dating back to the 1990s. The suspect was identified as 65\u2011year\u2011old Leland Fleming.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Detectives with the Special Victims Unit launched an extensive investigation and determined that Fleming had been involved in multiple religious ministries throughout Montgomery County.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
According to investigators, he also worked with children\u2019s choirs and homeschool groups, placing him in contact with youth across various organizations over the years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
On May 28, 2026, an arrest warrant was issued for Indecency with a Child. Investigators later located Fleming in Madison County, Arkansas, where he was taken into custody with assistance from local authorities. He was extradited back to Montgomery County on June 25, 2026.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Fleming is currently being held in the Montgomery County Jail without bond and faces two counts of Indecency with a Child.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Sheriff\u2019s Office says the investigation remains active. Because of Fleming\u2019s long\u2011term involvement with youth\u2011focused religious and educational groups, detectives believe additional victims or witnesses may exist.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Anyone with information is urged to contact the Montgomery County Sheriff\u2019s Office at 936\u2011538\u20115900 and reference case number 26A156874.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
