A 55 -year -old man was sentenced to 2 and a half years in prison after pleading guilty of harassment and harassment The superstar of Indiana Caitlin Clark fever.
Michael Lewis de Denton, Texas, has entered into an agreement with Marion County prosecutors, in Ind.
Lewis will receive a credit for the 197 days he has already served behind bars since his arrest in January. He would have sent hundreds of “threats and sexually explicit, 22 -year -old threats and messages” via social media between December 12 and January 11.
A few days before his arrest, Lewis told the police who made a wellness check in his Indianapolis hotel room that he was in an “imaginary relationship”. He continued to send a message to the WNBA star after the police visit.
“This resolution guarantees that the accused is held responsible for his threatening actions, the fear he has inspired and the disturbances he caused,” said Marion County Prosecutor Ryan Mears on Monday. “… The victim may have peace of mind while focusing on what matters to her.”
As part of the decision, Lewis received the order to have no contact with Clark and stay away from Gainbridge and Hinkle Fieldhouses in Indiana, as well as all events associated with fever or Indiana Pacers. It is also not allowed to have access to the Internet when he purges his sentence.
Justice Angela Dow Davis also recommended Lewis to request mental health treatment. According to WTHR-TV in Indianapolis, Davis often had to stop and correct the behavior of Lewis, who at some point prophesied the end of the world.
It was a behavior similar to what he appeared in court for the first time after his arrest earlier this year. Davis has repeatedly told him to “stop talking” because he continued to interrupt the procedure.
