The Tennessee Bureau of Investigation has a new addition to the state’s Top 10 Most Wanted list, Gary Simpson.

Warrants are on file with the Hawkins County Sheriff’s Office. Simpson is the suspect of the Amber alert that is issued for Carlie Marie Trent.

Simpson, 57, is a white male with brown eyes and brown hair, which is balding. He stands 5 feet 10 and weighs approximately 157 pounds.
