Federal Conviction and Local Booking: Byron Leonel Flowers Taken into Custody

Byron Leonel Flowers, 35, of Dallas, was arrested on April 2, 2026, by the Kaufman County Sheriff’s Office following a federal court order. Flowers, who was recently adjudged guilty in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Texas, is currently being held in the Kaufman County Jail under a federal contract.

The arrest follows a February 27, 2026, ruling by a federal judge accepting Flowers’ guilty pleas regarding his involvement in a series of violent crimes. According to court records, Flowers was found guilty of multiple counts, including three counts of using, carrying, and brandishing a firearm during and in relation to a crime of violence, in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 924(c)(1)(A)(ii). Additionally, Flowers was convicted of two counts of interference with commerce by robbery, in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 1951(a).

Following the court's acceptance of the plea agreement, Flowers was ordered to remain in custody. He was subsequently booked into the Kaufman County facility at 12:23 p.m. on April 2. While the arrest was processed by the Kaufman County Sheriff’s Office, the charging agency is listed as the United States Marshals Service.

Total bail was set at "not set," as the defendant is currently being held on a federal detainer. Flowers remains in housing unit A04 awaiting sentencing, which will be imposed in accordance with the court's established scheduling order. All suspects are presumed innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.
