Former soldier found guilty of sexually abusing several young girls while on active duty

An Alaska jury found a 25-year-old former soldier, Shaheed Fleming, guilty on Tuesday of sexually abusing multiple underage girls while stationed at Fort Wainwright.

Fleming was initially arrested in November 2021 on six counts of sexual abuse of a minor. Court documents revealed that he had sexually abused several girls between the ages of 13 and 15.

At the time of his arrest, Fleming, then 22 years old, was serving as an active-duty soldier. He was taken into custody by Alaska State Troopers in Fairbanks after an investigation revealed his involvement with a 15-year-old girl.

Fleming was charged with two counts of second-degree sexual abuse of a minor and four counts of third-degree sexual abuse of a minor. Investigators discovered that he used social media to arrange meetings with one of his victims.

In October 2021, Fleming met the victim at the Spring Hill Suites by Marriott hotel in Fairbanks, where he engaged in sexual activity.

The following month, he arranged another meeting with the same victim in North Pole. According to charging documents, Fleming picked up the victim and drove to an undisclosed parking area, where further abuse occurred.

Evidence found on Fleming’s device included photos and videos documenting the abuse at these locations. Investigators also alleged that Fleming was aware the victim was underage at the time.

During his trial, the jury rejected Fleming’s defense of a “reasonable mistake of age,” convicting him on 23 counts of sexual abuse of a minor. However, he was acquitted of one count of second-degree sexual abuse involving a fourth victim.

The Alaska Department of Law issued a press release confirming the jury’s verdict. Fleming, who also goes by the name “Kapital Kaay” for his music on SoundCloud, has not been active on social media since 2020. His Facebook profile indicates he is or was engaged.

Fleming remains in custody without bail. His sentencing hearing is scheduled for June 20.
