WATERBURY — The Vermont State Police investigation into the October 2023 homicide of Honoree Fleming in Castleton remains active and ongoing.
Recent media reports have led to speculation about possible connections between this case and another high-profile homicide investigation in Arkansas.
The Vermont State Police said detectives follow up on any potential lead, including contacting other police agencies when a crime has similarities, even if no connection is known.
VSP has reached out to multiple agencies nationwide to discuss cases with similarities to the Fleming homicide.
The agency emphasized that such information-sharing is routine and does not imply a suspect in one case is linked to another.
After learning of a recent double homicide in Arkansas and an arrest, VSP contacted Arkansas authorities as part of standard procedure.
At this time, there is no known link between the Arkansas suspect and the Fleming case or Vermont.
The Vermont State Police urge anyone with information to call the Rutland station at 802-773-9101 or submit an anonymous tip online at https://vsp.vermont.gov/tipsubmit.
