Production note: Generated from the Assumption Parish Sheriff's Office booking record only (https://assumption-so-la.zuercherportal.com/). An automated web search for independent corroboration found only a generic parish-wide arrest listing (recentlybooked.com), which does not independently state any fact about this booking beyond the name and date already in the roster and was not treated as a source. Independent court-docket lookup and local news corroboration were not otherwise attempted for this article. The Louisiana Revised Statute cited in the body reflects the citation number the source itself published inline in its charge text ("14:30"), not a separately structured statute field.
Bernard Junior Fleander, 26, was booked at the Assumption Parish Jail on Aug. 13, 2026, according to the Assumption Parish Sheriff's Office booking record. The booking record lists a charge cited by the source as "14:30 - First Degree Murder (Felony)" — Louisiana Revised Statute 14:30, the state's first degree murder statute.
Fleander was also booked on a warrant for failure to appear, set by Judge Tureau. The booking record lists no bond amount for either matter, stating it as "to be set."
Fleander has been charged, not convicted, and the booking record describes allegations rather than establishing guilt. No disposition is recorded for either matter.
