Man wanted for impregnating 14 year old girl found on MySpace

Charlotte County Sheriff's detective located a man in Clovis, New Mexico, wanted on a warrant for impregnating a 14 year old girl a couple years ago. Charged with Lewd and Lascivious Battery and returned to the Charlotte County Jail last night was Herbert Clinton Miller, 41, formerly of Harbour Heights.

Detectives said after Hurricane Charley damaged the home of a woman and her two children, they moved in with Miller, a family friend. The report said Miller and the girl started having sex between October of 2004 and during 2005; she was 14 then and he was 37.

The girl became pregnant and had the baby in August of 2006. The girl finally came forward and named Miller as the father. Attempts to locate Miller were unsuccessful until detectives checked MySpace.com to see if Miller had a profile which they found. Numerous photos were posted on his site included the girl and their baby, and various blog entries. Miller was arrested in Curry County, New Mexico, and extradited back to Charlotte County. He remains in the County Jail in lieu of a $20,000 bond.
