In 2009, he pleaded guilty to voluntary manslaughter, leading to an initial sentence of 15 years in prison by the then Second District Court Judge, Jeff Brudie.Five months into Leonard's sentence, Brudie placed Leonard on a five-year probation, much to the opposition of Latah County Prosecutor Bill Thompson. Leonard did not have any further brushes with the law until the night of December 6, when his wife reported to Moscow authorities that the suspect assaulted her and his daughter.According to local police, Leonard was accused of choking his wife before punching his child several times and then violently dragging her by the hair. He was reportedly armed with a knife, which he used to threaten his wife before supposedly self-harming as officers arrived at the scene. He was allegedly heavily intoxicated, with authorities finding marijuana in his system.SUPER EMPATH 🙅‍♀️@EmpathSuperAll we know so far about James Curtis Leonard arrested at 1AM today in Moscow Idaho.#idahohomicides twitter.com/angela_callist…Angela Callisto@angela_callisto@EmpathSuper @shenna_brook @seanshoelayer Updated with the apparent charges from last night.169@EmpathSuper @shenna_brook @seanshoelayer Updated with the apparent charges from last night. https://t.co/3GbcvkFsnrAll we know so far about James Curtis Leonard arrested at 1AM today in Moscow Idaho.#idahohomicides twitter.com/angela_callist…Despite the suspect’s volatile behavior, his wife told reporters that the rumor that he murdered the four students was unfounded.She said:“There’s a lot of crazy stuff going on, but my husband had nothing to do with what happened up there.
