Biography of LeRoy Nellis | Criminals Behind The Badge
An American from Austin, Texas, documents pretrial detention, medical neglect, and what followed — in his own words, as a record.

My name is LeRoy Nellis. I am an American, a Texan, and a believer in God and in the Constitution of the United States. I am also an investigative author, public speaker, and systems analyst whose work centers on accountability, transparency, and exposing how systems operate when they move outside the law. I am not against law enforcement. I am against any person, regardless of title, who violates the laws they are sworn to uphold.
This biography is the record of what happened when I tried to hold a system to the law it is sworn to obey.
The detention:
From December 2023 to July 10, 2025, I was held in pretrial detention. That means I had not been convicted of anything when the state confined me. During that time, I spent 336 days in solitary confinement. Those were not normal conditions. They were daily, sustained pressure — conditions I describe as torture, based on what was experienced physically, mentally, and medically.
I also went over 120 consecutive days without critical diabetic medications, resulting in permanent damage. For a diabetic, medication is not optional care. It is the line between stability and lasting harm. Everything documented on this site comes from that period and what followed. This is not opinion. This is record.

After release:
After I was released from detention, the pressure did not stop. Instead, new charges were brought against me. These charges were based on the claim that I had “tagged someone in a post.” That claim was used to justify another arrest.
I maintain that this was a false charge used to silence me and prevent me from speaking about what I experienced. The pattern did not end at detention. It continued beyond it. The stakes are plain: a person who reports what happened inside is met with new charges rather than an answer.
Targeted since 2019:
I have been targeted by the Williamson County Sheriff's Office since 2019. There have been repeated efforts to bring false charges, damage my reputation, and separate me from my daughter. With the involvement of others, including my ex-wife, a narrative has been pushed that does not reflect reality. This platform exists to correct that narrative with documented evidence. Transparency is how truth is restored.
Who has been notified:
The record is not hidden. It is documented, and it is on record. It has been placed with the institutions that carry the authority to act: the U.S. Department of Justice, the United States Attorney's Office, the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), the U.S. Marshals Service, the Texas Attorney General, the Texas Commission on Jail Standards, and the Texas Rangers of the Texas Department of Public Safety.
The mission:
The mission is four things.
1. Document what actually happened:
The events are written down as they occurred.
2. Expose how systems operate:
The work shows what a system does when it moves outside the law.
3. Preserve evidence in real time:
The record is kept as it happens.
4. Ensure accountability exists:
Accountability, so the law is applied equally.
This is not about attacking institutions. This is about defending the rule of law. Because when the law is not applied equally, the system breaks. And when the system breaks, it affects everyone. This is about making sure that does not continue. That is the mission.
“This is not opinion. This is record.”
What the Record Shows:
LeRoy Nellis, an American from Austin, Texas, spent 336 days in solitary confinement during pretrial detention from December 2023 to July 10, 2025, and went over 120 consecutive days without critical diabetic medications, resulting in permanent damage. He states he has been targeted by the Williamson County Sheriff's Office since 2019, and that new charges brought after his release — based on a claim he tagged someone in a post — were false and used to silence him. The record has been placed with the U.S. Department of Justice, the United States Attorney's Office, the FBI, the U.S. Marshals Service, the Texas Attorney General, the Texas Commission on Jail Standards, and the Texas Rangers. The open question is whether the institutions notified will act on what the record shows.
