Only One Way Out: The Tragic Death of Mica Miller
May 14, 2024 Season 2 Episode 16
Gone in a Blink

It all began with a 14-year-old Mica Miller in her youth group and the much older Pastor of her church, John-Paul Miller.  Some believe he was grooming her, and others believe it was love at first sight. The two would marry several years later and Mica would become larger than life within her husband's church and within the community. Everyone loved Mica and Mica maintained a huge circle of friends that she loved as well. But her pastor husband had a dark side....one that entailed cheating on his wife and a habit of bad-mouthing her on stage in front of his entire congregation. Mica decided she'd had enough and wanted a divorce, but John-Paul didn't want to give up his control of Mica, so he began to keep tabs on her....and with that, he began to harass her as well. He didn't believe in divorce, and he let Mica know how he felt. Just how far did this Pastor push his wife and what role did JP Miller really play in Mica's death?
