This donation followed $200,000 toward the Heart Fund, an international nonprofit dedicated to addressing cardiovascular disease in developing nations, as well as Jesuit High School in Tampa, Florida, his alma mater.

Controversy

On April 14, 2023, Carroll attracted media attention for spitting in the face of the manager of Wynwood Eatery, Miguel Weill, after being asked to stop sexually harassing a woman who was eating with her partner. [13]

In March of 2024, Carroll was ordered by police to undergo a mental health evaluation after he posted videos of himself on social media that depicted him firing guns and ranting about the Second Amendment outside of his Miami Beach mansion. His neighbors called emergency services based on his behavior, and he was ordered to relinquish all of his firearms under Florida's Red flag law. [14]

On July 24, 2023, Carroll was arrested in Los Angeles for driving under the influence (DUI) and weapons possession. According to reports, he attempted to flee from the police after getting out of his car and running down an embankment. The dramatic chase was captured by local news helicopters. The police recovered weapons from Carroll's possession during the arrest. [15]
