Leslee Kuntzman at one time worked as an illustrator for Independent Fundamental Baptist preacher and young-earth promoter Kent Hovind. Some of Kent’s books also featured Irie Sky Kuntzman as an illustrator.

Mark Stoney recently sought to contact Leslee to discuss some of her work for Kent Hovind as part of his continuing coverage of the Kent Hovind story. However, he was not able to locate her. I (Robert Baty) decided to try and help locate her.

In the course of my efforts, Eric Kuntzman contacted me and the rest, they say, his history. Eric has been concerned about his sister Irie for several years because she, her mother, and her father (and Eric’s father) appear to have simply disappeared.

Images from the Leigh Koontz FaceBook page:

The man referenced in the post below who, allegedly, committed no crime is Kent Hovind. I don’t know the story on the other man allegedly shot by law enforcement. She mentions him in other posts as well.

Kent Hovind appears to have established relationships with a number of younger women while he was in federal prison from 2007-2015. Leigh appears to be one of them which he was able to exploit. To the extent that Leigh’s course in life might be related to her “odd” notions about government, religion, conspiracies and such, Kent Hovind might be rightly given credit for having encouraged such notions.

..

Gea was one of Kent Hovind’s first prison pen pals; a young, Canadian woman who was really enamored with Kent Hovind and supported him and helped him get his message out on YouTube. Gea’s FaceBook account now appears to be using the name Gurbani Kaur Gill. Erin Davis is the wife of Rudy Davis, Kent’s #1 YouTube promoter for a time. Rudy quit his job in 2015 and promoted Kent Hovind full time for awhile.

I guess this could go on for a while longer!

I have grown weary of copying all of that. Go to the link below for the video and more of what has been said in the comments section. If something more substantive appears, I will try to mirror it here.

Joe Kuntzman and Irie Sky Kuntzman returned, this evening, to Mark Stoney’s video comments section, along with Leslee Kuntzman’s brother Douglas. Douglas and Irie exchange a few messages, but Joe went nuts bantering about with nothing meaningful to say and refusing to openly and honestly engage in a civil discussion of issues relevant to the story.

Too much to copy and paste here. The link to the video under which the comments are posted is:

After the following exchange this morning, Mark Stoney posted a message saying he was stopping the discussion, terminating comments, but he would leave the video posted in the “unlisted” category.
