TAMPA, FLORIDA: Aaron Carter's mother, Jane Schneck, was reportedly arrested on Friday, April 28, on charges of battery after arguing with her husband, Gregory Schneck, over a TV remote while turning up the volume of the device. The 64-year-old was reportedly listening to loud music which made it difficult for her husband to go to sleep, the Daily Mail reported.

The altercation between the couple became so heated that it led to Schneck’s husband calling the police to report her actions, as per the publication. Schneck allegedly grabbed her husband’s wrist to stop him from recording the situation during the fight, TMZ reported. Officials arrived at Schneck’s Florida home and reportedly watched the cell phone video before deciding to arrest the woman for battery.

Online records showed that Schneck was taken in around early morning on Saturday, April 29, according to Daily Mail. She eventually posted a $100 bond and was released from custody the same evening. Despite the altercation, Gregory was not injured and did not want to visit the hospital.

Who is Jane Schneck?

Schneck is the mother of Backstreet Boys star Nick Carter, and late singer Aaron Carter, who was found dead in his bathtub on November 5, 2022. According to Carter’s death certificate, her mother was the first person to be notified of his death. The 64-year-old was previously married to Robert Gene Carter and appeared on several reality shows with her husband. She was reportedly a business owner in Tampa, Florida, and was previously seen with Aaron on ‘Marriage Boot Camp: Family Edition'.

Schneck separated from Robert in 2004 and is currently married to Gregory. Prior to her recent arrest, Schneck was also arrested for battery in 2004 after allegedly attacking her ex-husband’s girlfriend Ginger Elrod. Reports suggest she was accused of using a rock to break a window and entering her then-husband’s house before dragging Elrod out of bed and hitting her with a remote control.

Jane Schneck shared chilling images of bathroom where Aaron Carter died

Earlier this year, Schneck shared a series of chilling images taken in the bathroom where her son Carter was found dead. She shared the photos on Facebook, prior to the release of Carter’s autopsy results, and requested authorities to investigate her son's death.

“Still trying to get a real investigation for the death of my son Aaron Carter,” she wrote at the time. “I want to share these death scene photos with you all because the coroner wrote it off as an accidental drug overdose. They never investigated it as a possible crime scene because of his addiction past,” Schneck added. The Los Angeles Country Medical Examiner-Coroner later announced that Carter drowned after inhaling difluoroethane and consuming alprazolam. They said that the singer’s death was accidental.
