Further research reveals some FUCKED UP SHIT.
Apparently, once upon a time before everything went to hell, Leonard apparently caught his mother sleeping with another man.
And then later, for some reason that the wiki does not go into detail over, AMALGAM attacks the Testarosa family. Teletha is hiding somewhere, but Leonard is with their mom. And what does the mom do? "Here, take my son! He's a super-genius! Just don't kill me." Apparently she saw an opportunity to save herself and tie up the loose end that could get her in trouble with her husband.
Long story short, they kill her anyways, then take Leonard and brainwash him. Apparently this is why Teletha has had difficulty in going up against Leonard in the past.
In a ways, I feel bad for him, but he's probably so far gone by now that there'd be no hope of saving him.
