DISTRICT ATTORNEY STATEMENT REGARDING THE OFFICER-INVOLVED DEATH
OF ISAIAH LEWIS
The following information was learned from the Edmond Police Depat1ment's investigation of the death of Isaiah Lewis, additional investigative activity by the Oklahoma County District Attorney's Office and information provided to the Oklahoma County District Attorney by Isaiah
Lewis' family and their attorney:
Isaiah Lewis' girlfriend, K.P., reported that he called her the night before his death, April 28, 2019. He seemed upset and told her that he needed to tell her something, but couldn't tell her
over the phone. K.P. said that Isaiah told her that he was in an argument with his father and brother. She said Isaiah was upset and didn't seem like himself during the phone call. K.P. said he seemed paranoid about something. Isaiah would not tell K.P. what seemed so urgent to him or why he couldn't tell her what it was on the phone. After making plans to see each other the
next day, the phone call ended.
Isaiah Lewis' parents, Troy and Vicki, who are no longer married to each other, verified that Isaiah was acting unusual on April 28th
. They said that Isaiah would not stop talking and was more hyperactive than usual. Troy and Vicki Lewis reported that there was not any type of argument between Isaiah and any family members, but Troy Lewis did call Vicki to ask her to pick up Isaiah and let him sleep at her house. Vicki Lewis drove to Troy Lewis' house to pick up Isaiah. She said that Isaiah wanted to talk more than usual on the drive home and that
evening. Isaiah spent the night at Vicki Lewis' residence that evening. She went to work as normal the next morning, April 29th
. Isaiah was asleep when she left the residence.
On April 29 11\ Lewis received a ride to K.P. 's home on Lariat Circle, in the Chisholm Lake
Addition. When he arrived at her home, Lewis was described as attempting to be happy, but K.P. said she could tell that he was not himself. She said Lewis seemed to be trying to compensate for something by the way he was acting. Lewis began making statements that really didn't make sense to K.P. Lewis began talking about the "Whiteman's burden," but he wouldn't
explain what that was. He also was making statements about being watched and tracked by the
