Stillwater Man Faces Life in Federal Prison After Pleading Guilty to Aggravated Sexual Abuse and Producing, Receiving, and Possessing Child Pornography
OKLAHOMA CITY / Wednesday, December 17, 2025 – LEE GRANT CLARK, 78, of Stillwater, has pleaded guilty to aggravated sexual abuse and production, receipt, and possession of child pornography, announced U.S. Attorney Robert J. Troester.
According to public record, in October 2024, FBI agents began investigating a computer user requesting child sexual abuse material (CSAM) through a file-sharing website. An investigation into the IP address of the user led authorities to Clark’s home in Stillwater. FBI agents spoke with officers from the Stillwater Police Department, who alerted the agents of a report involving Clark’s alleged sexual abuse of two minors around 2004. Court records further show that Clark produced CSAM on at least two occasions and sexually abused minors under the age of 12.
On December 3, 2025, a federal Grand Jury returned a Superseding Indictment, charging Clark with two counts of production of child pornography and one count each of aggravated sexual abuse, receipt of child pornography, and possession of material containing child pornography. On December 16, 2025, Clark pleaded guilty to all charges in the Superseding Indictment. He admitted he sexually exploited two minors for the purpose of creating CSAM, that he crossed state lines to sexually abuse two minors, that he knowingly received CSAM via the internet, and that he possessed hard drives containing CSAM.
At sentencing, Clark faces not less than ten years and up to life in federal prison. He also faces fines of up to $250,000 for each count.
This case is the result of an investigation by the FBI Oklahoma City Field Office and the Stillwater Police Department. Assistant U.S. Attorneys Jordan Ganz and Brandon Hale are prosecuting the case.
This case is also part of Project Safe Childhood (PSC), a nationwide initiative by the Department of Justice (DOJ) to combat child sexual exploitation and abuse. Led by U.S. Attorney’s Offices and the DOJ Child Exploitation and Obscenity Section, PSC marshals federal, state, and local resources to better locate, apprehend, and prosecute individuals who exploit children via the Internet, as well as to identify and rescue victims.
