Michele Bundy is a former Sports Reporter who is best known for her relationship controversy with Shannon Sharpe. Michele Bundy filed a restraining order against Sharpe in the Atlanta court.[1]

Bundy accused Sharpe of sexual assault and threatening her life; according to legal documents obtained by SportsByBrooks, Bundy claimed she was forced to have sex with Sharpe and that Sharpe called and threatened her life, placed her under surveillance and would call to say he was watching her.[2][3] Bundy later withdrew the order, allowing Sharpe to return to his job at CBS.[4][5][6]

Michele Bundy moved to New York City in 2006, when she was hired by IMG (company)[7] as a Sr. Software Engineer to build Tiger Woods website.[8] Bundy left IMG (company) for ESPN.com.

In 2017 Bundy again made headlines when she was arrested on a suspected arson warrant and extradited to Georgia from New Jersey.[9] However it turned out to be a false arrest and all charges were dropped.[10] Somehow, the media never reported it was Bundy's house that was destroyed and instead made Bundy's misfortune about Sharpe.[9]

NFL player, Antonio Brown tweeted out Shannon Sharpe's assault allegation, made by Michele Bundy, in response to Brown's own sexual harassment controversy.[4] Sharpe responded by tweeting a doctored photo of Brown, calling him Clowntonio[11] and comparing him to 6ix9ine for "Dry Snitching" on Sharpe to the National Football League. Media reports, pointed out Sharpe was actually admitting guilt by using the comparison, as "Dry Snitching" means Intentionally getting someone in trouble by outting something they've done wrong.[12]

When Sharpe realized his faux pax, he tweeted out quotes from Michele Bundy's arson arrest article in an attempt to make himself look better.[11]

Michele Bundy was ahead of her time, as the Me Too movement didn't gain traction until a couple of years later.
