Overview

  • Jimmy Wayne Carwyle, 48, was arrested on May 5, 2025, after ramming his car into the gate of Jennifer Aniston's Bel-Air home while the actress was inside.
  • Prosecutors allege Carwyle harassed Aniston from March 2023 through May 2025 via social media, voicemails, and emails, culminating in the violent incident.
  • Carwyle, who reportedly believes he is Jesus Christ and Aniston is his queen, faces charges of felony stalking, vandalism, and threatening great bodily harm, with a potential prison sentence of up to three years if convicted.
  • At his May 8 arraignment, Carwyle appeared disheveled and wrapped in an anti-suicide blanket; he was ordered to stay at least 100 yards away from Aniston and referred to mental-health court for a competency evaluation.
  • Carwyle remains in custody on $150,000 bail, with his next hearing scheduled for May 22, 2025, to determine if he is fit to stand trial.
