Storylines

In May 2010, Carter was an inmate serving time at Pentonville Penitentiary for a murder conviction, just like his cellmate Michael. From May to July, Michael was sexually assaulted and raped by Carter while they were in Pentonville, but Jason came to Michael's rescue and killed Carter in self-defense during a knife fight.

On January 31, 2011, Michael confesses to his girlfriend Abby that he was raped in prison after watching her ex Brandon almost rape her. This was the first confirmation onscreen that he had been raped.

On May 30, 2013, Carter appeared in a video Franco presented at the Haunted Star. The video showed that Franco wanted Carter to protect Michael, but in reality, Carter terrorized him.
