LeBlanc was arrested in May 2022 and charged with one count each of luring a person under the age of 18, sexual assault and sexual exploitation.

His case appeared in Estevan Provincial Court on a number of occasions since then. Each time, it was adjourned to a later date until mid-May, when the preliminary hearing was set.
