Leniently means that someone is taking it easy and not as harsh as they could be. For example, if a police officer lets you off with a warning, he is dealing with you leniently.

Will a smiling person accused of a crime be treated more leniently than one who in not smiling?

Not usually. I served on a jury for a murder trial. When the prosecuting attorney handed the jury crime scene photos, the defendant was smiling broadly. When we went into deliberation, the entire jury agreed that it made them cringe. I believe in most circumstances, a person who shows remorse and accepts accountability would be the ones treated more leniently than the one that seems to be proud of their work.
