Overview
- Leslie Williams, 62, who was booked Wednesday, April 22, remains held without bond at the Sumter County Detention Center as an out-of-state fugitive pending extradition to Georgia.
- The Rockdale County Sheriff’s Office says Florida marriage records showed Williams was still legally married, which led to an April 3 warrant for felony bigamy.
- Police say the case began with a complaint to the Haines City Police Department in Florida and shifted to Georgia after records tied an earlier marriage to Rockdale County.
- Williams announced a new marriage to a woman identified as Cindi in December 2025 on Facebook, drew comments noting a prior marriage, and later removed the cover photo and changed his status to single.
- In Georgia, bigamy is a felony punishable by up to one to ten years in prison, and Williams now faces court proceedings that will determine his transfer to Rockdale County.
