Legal issues
Carr has faced numerous legal problems since beginning his professional football career in 2009.
In June 2017, Carr was arrested for domestic violence after allegedly physically assaulting model Sophe Annan, his ex-girlfriend and mother of his first child. Carr pled guilty in a Delta court and agreed to pay Z$5,000 to Annan.
Carr was arrested in Tofino for drunk driving on February 5th, 2023, less than two months before the opening of the 2023 Melmingen World Cup. The owners of the Lakers and the national team were faced with pressure to strip Carr from their rosters, but ultimately he was allowed to stay on both teams. Upon his return from the 2023 World Cup, Carr was once again arrested for drunk driving and battery after an altercation at a night club in Arinals, Zian. Aebetius owner Emeline Hershey terminated Carr's contract and offered him free agent status.
