Muncie man wanted on rape, child solicitation charges

Justin Leavitt, 27, is accused of raping a teen in his home last summer.

MUNCIE, Ind. — A warrant has been issued for a Muncie man who was charged with rape, sexual misconduct with a minor and child solicitation after a teen boy told police the man forced him into oral sex and unwanted sexual contact last summer.  

A probable cause affidavit for the arrest of Justin Leavitt, then 26, says a 14-year-old victim told detectives he was forced into unwanted sex acts at least three times in 2022 at Leavitt's home.

Leavitt also allegedly showed the teen pornography on his cellphone. 

A person who filed the initial police report against Leavitt provided detectives with an audio recording, in which he allegedly admitted to a sexual encounter with the victim and that he also watched pornography while the victim was present.

Leavitt also allegedly admitted to a detective over the phone that he forced the teen into unwanted sex acts. 

He will be held on a $35,000 bond, pending his arrest.
