Jury finds Ardmore mask protestor not guilty
The Daily Ardmoreite
A jury on Thursday found Ardmore resident Leslie Fleming not guilty of charges stemming from a November protest against a planned vote by Ardmore city commissioners to institute a city-wide mask mandate.
Fleming was initially arrested for possession of stolen code enforcement signs, a charge that was later reduced to one count of malicious injury to city property.
It took the jury less than 20 minutes to return the not guilty verdict to a courtroom largely devoid of masks.The defendant was one of only a few in attendance wearing a mask.
