Fleming, who identifies as an independent and says he voted for President Trump in 2016, says the state’s decision to bring felony charges against him and his wife seemed disproportionate with the nature of the underlying accusations, given that, as he puts it, they were cooperative and forthcoming with the state when first contacted about the situation.
