Forty-six-year-old Michael Wayne Carpenter is currently serving a 10-year long-term supervision order, with convictions for three counts each of sexual assault with a weapon, forcible confinement, and uttering threats to cause death or bodily harm.

He is white, 5’9″ tall, weighs 180 pounds, and has brown short hair and blue eyes.
