Police Release Bodycam Video of FBI Confronting Caitlin Clark’s Stalker in Indianapolis

The encounter preceded Michael Lewis’s guilty plea, resulting in a 2½-year sentence with strict bans.

Overview

  • Recorded on Jan. 8, the video shows agents questioning Michael Lewis at a downtown hotel as he calls his actions an “imaginary relationship” and says he was “just on vacation.”
  • Investigators say the 55-year-old from Denton, Texas, began sending threatening and sexually explicit messages to Clark in December 2024 before traveling to Indianapolis in early January.
  • Lewis was arrested on Jan. 12 and charged with felony stalking and misdemeanor harassment, then pleaded guilty in July.
  • He received a two-and-a-half-year prison sentence with a no-contact order, bans from Indiana Fever and Pacers games, prohibitions on visiting Gainbridge Fieldhouse and Hinkle Fieldhouse, and restrictions on internet use.
  • Marion County prosecutors said the resolution holds him accountable for the fear and disruption caused, and Clark has not commented publicly.
