KEY WITNESS IN PASTOR’S WIFE MICA MILLER CASE DEAD

KEY WITNESS IN PASTOR’S WIFE MICA MILLER CASE DEAD

Author: iHeartPodcasts and CrimeOnline September 12, 2026 Duration: 37:17

When Mica Miller's body was discovered submerged in Lumber River State Park alongside a gun case and receipt found inside her vehicle, friends and family members immediately questioned local findings that Mica took her own life. Nancy Grace and her expert panel, including Mica's former attorney, Regina Ward, dissect widespread doubts surrounding her death, questioning whether state authorities moved too quickly to dismiss foul play or if Pastor John Paul Miller drove his estranged wife to take her own life. Evidence documents ongoing domestic abuse and coercive control in the Millers' marriage, and a video of a dramatic face-down lawn tantrum shows Miller's true colors as his federal court date approaches.

A federal indictment against Pastor John Paul Miller includes felony cyberstalking charges for allegedly subjecting Mica to relentless harassment. Federal prosecutors detail how Miller tracked her vehicle, deflated her tires using specialized tools, interfered with her daily finances, lied to law enforcement, and posted a nude photograph of her online without her consent. Currently walking free on bond under ankle-monitor surveillance while Solid Rock Church is emptied, Miller maintains his innocence despite mounting public outrage, erratic behavior, and reports of dating again shortly after Mica's death. Anyone with information regarding the ongoing federal case against John Paul Miller is urged to contact investigators at (803) 551-4200.
