He is being extradited to Hamilton County in Indiana for unlawful possession of a firearm by a serious violent felon connected to a February 2022 "accidental discharge" incident at his Carmel, Indiana, home. The charges are also unrelated to her disappearance.
The incident happened two days after he reported his wife missing on Feb. 26, 2022, FOX 5 in Atlanta and FOX 59 in Indianapolis reported.

Investigators also confiscated two handguns during a search of his home the day after he reported his wife missing and another gun the next day when investigators returned for the "accidental discharge."
The gun charges were filed in Hamilton County, Indiana, last November.
"I want to make it clear, that is not in relation to the missing persons case," Lt. Tim Byrne with Indiana's Carmel Police Department said, according to FOX 59.
