Overview
- Carr, 48, is charged with sexual abuse of children, criminal solicitation to commit sexual abuse of children, and corruption of minors, according to authorities.
- Adams County District Attorney Brian Sinnett alleges Carr groomed the victim before age 16 and later solicited explicit images and sexual video chats when the teen was 16 to 17.
- Officials say the alleged conduct occurred between 2011 and 2013 while Carr volunteered directing a Gettysburg High School play and led the community theatre.
- A February 2026 tip from the now-adult complainant triggered the investigation; Carr was arrested and is being held on $100,000 bail with a March 20 court date.
- Investigators interviewed other witnesses but said their accounts did not meet charging thresholds or were time-barred, and Pennsylvania State Police asked anyone with information to call the Gettysburg Station at 717-334-8111.
