Indiana State Police are looking for a convicted felon facing child molest charges in Miami and Howard counties.

Michael Wayne Gordon was convicted of child molesting in Howard County in 1994. As part of his sentence, he registered as a sex or violent offender. 

He was again convicted in 1998 of child molesting and required to register. Following that, he was convicted of failure to register as a sex offender in March 2004 in Howard County.

In February 2021, Gordon failed to appear for a Miami County hearing on another child molesting case in March 2023, leading a judge to issue an arrest warrant.

Gordon is wanted on two counts of child molesting in Miami County and two counts of failure to register as a sex or violent offender—one in Miami County and another in Howard County.

Gordon is described as 5’10” tsll and 247 pounds with brown hair and brown eyes. 

Anyone with information should contact Crime Stoppers of Central Indiana at 317-262-TIPS (8477).
