SC - Mica Miller, 30 yr old Found Deceased - Pastors Wife's Death Being Investigated, May 2024 #2

[I am not Sherlock H.]

Meanwhile, the federal investigation into John-Paul Miller has been the subject of significant speculation. Some believe it is tied to Mica Miller’s death, others believe it is linked to the purportedly shady history of his church’s finances – and the religious empire of his father, Reginald Wayne Miller.

Mica Miller Saga: Police Reports Fill In Blanks, Raise More Questions - FITSNews

South Carolina pastor's wife contacted police at least fourteen times for help in the weeks leading up to her death...

It’s been a minute since the FBI showed up at JP’s house and removed evidence. I expected to see an arrest, but so far he’s still out there trying to hoodwink people into participating in his newly formed nonprofit. Asset protection at it’s finest I suppose?

Thank you for the New Year’s reminder @Knox ….. yes, seems we should put a quarterly or bi-annual reminder here on this case. So it gets some light shone on it.

And I sure hope some investigators and FITS News keeps the spectacles and investigative ‘moxie’ on this case.

Have to wonder what exactly those financial records will reveal. MOO

Either way, I hope that justice and karma are both served cold, and quickly!

Thanks for sharing that news update @Luna20

IMO some of the statements in it from ‘pastor’ JPM seems a little rich perhaps? Seems he is blaming perhaps the city and town of Myrtle Beach for not ‘protecting’ his church or him from this outcome?

Maybe someone has forgotten about the unfortunate death of the ‘pastor’s’ wife and supposition surrounding it? SMH. MOO

It’s in a very popular location. It’s surrounded by almost nothing but $600-$700K homes in a very attractive neighborhood. I’m surprised it didn’t sell for two or three times that amount, TBH. It says the buyer plans to demolish the building and use the land to develop condominiums. They will recoup $2.1m and then some in very short order.

Location is everything, thanks for sharing the insider info.

I wonder where he will go from here and if we will find out more information about Mica.

If there are more secrets in his past, I hope victims will find the courage to come forward.

Predator built a net IMO in order to lure prey.

The rest is just lights and bluster.

Myrtle Beach pastor JP Miller accused of raping 15-year-old girl, according to new lawsuit

"This morning I filed a case on behalf of a Jane Doe against John-Paul Miller, Reginald Wayne Miller, Cathedral Church and Solid Rock Ministries in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. John-Paul Miller is also known as the former husband of Mica Miller.

In my case, Jane Doe alleges that in 1998 John-Paul Miller sexually assaulted her at Cathedral Church while it was being run by his father Reginald Wayne Miller. She also alleges that in 2023, he sexually assaulted her again.

This case involves complex issues involving repressed memory and not understanding what happened to you until much later." — Attorney Randy Hood of McGowan, Hood, Felder and Phillips law firm

A SECOND Jane Doe Lawsuit has been filed against Myrtle Beach pastor JP Miller, his father Wayne Miller and additional defendants, accusing JP of sexually assaulting a 14-YEAR-OLD student of Christian academy where he taught in 1999. The Jane Doe No. 2 case was filed Wednesday by Rock Hill attorney Randy Hood, who also represents Jane Doe No. 1 and who is being assisted by attorney Mark Tinsley — aka Zero Dark Tinsley and Tiger Tinsley from the Murdaugh case.

The second Jane Doe case involves additional defendants: In addition to JP Miller, Wayne Miller and their churches, we now have three “SCHOOLS” added to the mix: Wayne Miller’s Cathedral Hall Academy and Cathedral Bible College (formerly known as Trinity Bible Institute) … Like the first Jane Doe case, the second Jane Doe accuses JP and Wayne of using their “religious facade” to engage in sexual abuse and predatory conduct — often targeting minors … Jane Doe No. 2 attended Cathedral Hall Academy in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina (aka Grand Strand Academy). The leadership of Cathedral Hall Academy (and the churches) was “front loaded into power” by Wayne and JP … their bylaws gave them complete control, according to the lawsuit …

The lawsuit notes that Cathedral Bible College and Cathedral Hall Academy were “NOT ACTUAL INSTITUTIONS” of learning and that “there were people LITERALLY TAKEN OFF THE STREET and passed off as ‘teachers.’”Jane Doe No. 2 was 14 years old in fall 1999 when her parents “believing they were making the best decision for her education” enrolled her at Cathedral Hall Academy. The lawsuit says instead of entering a nurturing environment, Jane Doe. No. 2 “WALKED INTO A NIGHTMARE” …. “Cathedral Hall Academy was NOT A SCHOOL, BUT A TRAP” … The lawsuit alleges that Wayne Miller’s school had no certified teachers, no legitimate coursework and no structured academics … “The classrooms were carved from a repurposed bowling alley, their walls incomplete, their floors slick and uneven”

'Raped by demons:' Myrtle Beach pastors accused of sexual, psychological abuse

A second Jane Doe has come forward and accused an embattled Myrtle Beach pastor and his father of sexual impropriety.

wpde.com

"For years, John-Paul Miller... and Reginald Wayne Miller... have presented themselves as devout religious leaders. They built their reputations in the Myrtle Beach community and beyond as men of faith, dedicated to spreading God's word and training future church leaders. But this image was a lie. Behind their religious facade, John-Paul Miller and Reginald Wayne Miller engaged in sexual abuse and predatory conduct -- often targeting minors. They used their positions of power to manipulate and exploit vulnerable victims while concealing their actions from the public," the summary section of the lawsuit reads.

In life, Mica felt helpless to stop them but her death is shining a light on their deplorable behavior for the whole world to see.

 

[tlcya]

wow. I had stopped checking for updates because I couldn't stand the JP road show that he went on to try to rehab his reputation. I am thrilled to see the unraveling of his lies about being a Godly man. It is too late to help Micah, but he can be responsible for his bad acts against other vulnerable young girls. Even if it is simply by messing with his coffers and wallet. It's something. Micah's case may have finally emboldened other victims to come forward.

Wishing him everything he deserves and more.

 

[iQuill]

Finally ... and only the beginning IMHO

 

[Luna20]

It’s only fair that Mica have the last word! He thought he silenced her, giving him the power to avoid an incriminating divorce. Now he faces far reaching consequences.
