Christopher Wayne Miller

WASHINGTON COUNTY TENNESSEE AUTHORITIES ARE SEARCHING FOR AN INMATE WHO WALKED OFF A WORK CREW OVER THE WEEKEND. 27 YEAR OLD CHRISTOPHER WAYNE MILLER, LAST KNOWN ADDRESS OF VALENTINE CIRCLE IN TELFORD, WAS ASSIGNED TO AN INMATE WORK CREW AT THE APPALACHIAN FAIRGROUNDS IN GRAY ON SUNDAY. HE ASKED TO GO TO THE RESTROOM, BUT NEVER RETURNED TO HIS WORK ASSIGNMENT. DEPUTIES SEARCHED THE IMMEDIATE AREA, BUT TO NO AVAIL. SHERIFF ED GRAYBEAL SAID MILLER HAD BEEN IN HIS FACILITY SINCE JULY OF THIS YEAR. HE WAS SERVING A FOUR-YEAR SENTENCE FOR VIOLATION OF PROBATION STEMMING FROM A PURSE SNATCHING INCIDENT THAT OCCURRED IN 1999. GRAYBEAL BELIEVES MILL MAY HAVE LEFT THE AREA, SINCE HE HAS SOME FAMILY ACQUAINTANCES IN CALIFORNIA. MILLER IS A WHITE MALE, 5-10, 170 POUNDS WITH REDDISH-BLONDE HAIR, AND BLUE EYES. ANYONE WITH ANY INFORMATION ON MILLER’S WHEREABOUTS, IS ASKED TO CONTACT THE WASHINGTON COUNTY SHERIFF’S OFFICE.
