According to the indictment, Miller-Carter possessed a Taurus PT111G2 9MM pistol as a convicted felon on August 30, 2021, in Union County.
The indictment alleges that Miller-Carter was prohibited from possessing a firearm due to his prior conviction.
The case was investigated by the Bureau of Alcohol Firearms Tobacco (ATF), the Pennsylvania State Police, and the Harrisburg Police Department.
Assistant U.S. Attorney Jaime M. Keating is prosecuting the case as part of the Project Safe Neighborhoods (PSN) Program, a joint federal, state, and local effort to reduce violent crime.
If convicted, Miller-Carter faces a maximum penalty of 10 years imprisonment, a term of supervised release following imprisonment, and a fine.
A sentence following a finding of guilt is imposed by the judge after consideration of the applicable federal sentencing statutes and the Federal Sentencing Guidelines.
