Overview
- Jail records show Bryson Bryant was booked on May 1, 2026, on charges of failure to pay child support, probation violation, and failure to appear, and remains held with bond set at about $27,000.
- The current detention links to a 2024 case in which officers say Bryant was found with fentanyl and gave the name Brentt Leakes, and he later accepted a plea that dropped the drug charge and imposed 12 months of probation.
- Court documents filed June 2 allege Bryant failed to meet multiple probation requirements, including reporting to probation, completing a substance abuse evaluation, doing 40 hours of community service, and paying a $500 fine.
- NeNe Leakes has previously publicly described Bryson’s repeated rehab attempts and her spending to help him, and a representative had not commented on this latest detention.
- If the court finds a probation violation, prosecutors can seek to revoke the plea agreement and seek incarceration or other penalties, and public records suggest local court orders and work‑release paperwork have been entered during the detention.
