Carl Hartman is a deputy of Newt, Texas and the secondary antagonist of Texas Chainsaw 3D.
History[]
He is Burt Hartman's son and a police deputy working for Sheriff Hooper. Before Heather's heritage was revealed, he was very warm and friendly to her and showed genuine concern. She even admits, she found him nice. When his father learns Heather Miller is really Edith Sawyer, he turns on her fast and assists in her abduction and tortures her. He leaves the slaughterhouse before Leatherface arrives and doesn't witness his father's death. His fate is unknown after the events of the film, but it's likely that Hooper fired him for his behavior.
