- 0:47Speaker 2: The pastor husband of Micah Miller allegedly raped a fifteen
- 0:52Speaker 2: year old girl and continued a pattern of predatory conduct
- 0:58Speaker 2: for years. According to a new civil lawsuit. Miller, forty four,
- 1:06Speaker 2: accused in a bombshell lawsuit in the attack the girl
- 1:12Speaker 2: known only as Jane Doe. The attack allegedly occurred in
- 1:18Speaker 2: nineteen ninety eight while at his father's church. It's a
- 1:24Speaker 2: forty three page complaint and it's filed in Horary County
- 1:27Speaker 2: Circuit Court. The unidentified woman accusing Miller of raping her
- 1:33Speaker 2: and inappropriately touching her. This dredging up the gunshot death
- 1:41Speaker 2: of his beautiful young wife Micah. Questions still swirling about.
- 1:49Speaker 3: That God hates divorce, but why according to everybody I've
- 1:54Speaker 3: asked and the scriptures that I've found, it's because it
- 1:57Speaker 3: hurts people. But does abuse hurt people? How do you
- 2:02Speaker 3: think God feels about that?
- 2:04Speaker 4: Almost in counting numb one one?
- 2:06Speaker 1: What's the address of your emergency?
- 2:10Speaker 4: I have my location on I think on my phone.
- 2:16Speaker 4: I just want my family to know where to find me.
- 2:33Speaker 5: What you're cracking? JP, your beppy ass coming?
- 2:56Speaker 2: We told you, yeah, what is a pastor doing getting
- 3:07Speaker 2: into a brawl in the parking lot?
- 3:10Speaker 1: According to reports, you just saw footage from.
- 3:13Speaker 2: Our friend and guess Melissa Pfeiffer joining us, and you
- 3:18Speaker 2: saw footage from at the Robbie.
- 3:21Speaker 1: Harvey at the Robbie Harvey.
- 3:24Speaker 2: Joining me an All Star panel. To make sense of
- 3:26Speaker 2: what we are learning.
- 3:27Speaker 1: Right now, this pastor.
- 3:31Speaker 2: Comes to the forefront of our national conscious after his
- 3:35Speaker 2: wife commit suicide. Now many people do not believe that
- 3:41Speaker 2: she did commit suicide. And there he is, in all
- 3:45Speaker 2: of his splendor and glory. John Paul Miller, I still
- 3:50Speaker 2: have the burning question, what is a pastor doing in
- 3:54Speaker 2: a brawl in the parking lot?
- 3:58Speaker 1: With me an All Star panel?
- 3:59Speaker 2: First own a go to a special guest joining us
- 4:02Speaker 2: Melissa Ffeiffer, who filmed Miller's alleged assault.
- 4:07Speaker 1: Melissa, thank you for being with us. What happened.
- 4:11Speaker 6: We were there and we were on the side of
- 4:14Speaker 6: the sidewalk the a lignes the church, and we were
- 4:16Speaker 6: just protesting at the time. We had there was a
- 4:19Speaker 6: neighbor that was out there that was talking to us,
- 4:20Speaker 6: and we were distracted and our backs were turned towards
- 4:23Speaker 6: the college and one of the young girls that was
- 4:27Speaker 6: with us turned around and said, that's Jap And when
- 4:31Speaker 6: we turned around, we saw him over there and it
- 4:34Speaker 6: looks to be like he was recording us. And at
- 4:37Speaker 6: that point, when I turned my camera to him, he
- 4:41Speaker 6: took off in the other direction, and so one of
- 4:44Speaker 6: the fellow protesters, you know, she ran across the street
- 4:47Speaker 6: because that's where our cars are parked. And we didn't
- 4:49Speaker 6: know what he was doing. We had no idea why
- 4:52Speaker 6: he was creeping up behind us or anything. So when
- 4:54Speaker 6: we went over there, as you see in the video,
- 4:58Speaker 6: like he was running away, he stopped, turn around or
- 5:03Speaker 6: charged at her, and you can hear her in the
- 5:06Speaker 6: video saying, you're in my personal face. And that's when
- 5:11Speaker 6: he said, what are you going to do? And he
- 5:13Speaker 6: hit the brim of her hat twice with his phone
- 5:15Speaker 6: while he was saying, what are you going to do?
- 5:17Speaker 6: And that's can you see her? You know, go in
- 5:21Speaker 6: on him?
- 5:21Speaker 1: Wait, let me understand something.
- 5:22Speaker 2: I'm gonna have to get you to tell your story
- 5:24Speaker 2: again because I'm oh wait, there he is getting it?
- 5:26Speaker 1: Oh wait is that him? Did I see him? Jackie?
- 5:30Speaker 2: Was that him touching her hat? I want to hear
- 5:34Speaker 2: the whole thing again, Melissa, because you were talking so quickly.
- 5:38Speaker 2: I'm afraid I miss something, but very quickly. I want
- 5:41Speaker 2: to go to high profile. No, no, no, no, you
- 5:44Speaker 2: were perfect. I just don't want to miss anything. Regina
- 5:46Speaker 2: Ward is joining US high profile lawyer and she's representing
- 5:50Speaker 2: Micah Miller's family law firm of Regina B.
- 5:54Speaker 1: Ward. Regina, I remember one l first.
- 5:59Speaker 2: Year of law school, we were talking about torts and
- 6:05Speaker 2: one of the cases we studied, it's a similar case
- 6:08Speaker 2: in US law. This had to do with a racist.
- 6:14Speaker 2: There was a black male I believe, with his wife
- 6:17Speaker 2: at some luncheon like you know, kawanas or rotary or
- 6:22Speaker 2: something like that, and there was a buffet, as there
- 6:25Speaker 2: is because you know they meet at lunchtime and the
- 6:29Speaker 2: victim had picked up a plate to go through the buffet,
- 6:35Speaker 2: and another guy that did not want the victim there
- 6:39Speaker 2: went up and grabbed the plate out of his hand,
- 6:43Speaker 2: and that was deemed a battery. Because if you touch
- 6:47Speaker 2: something that is touching another person, like the plate or
- 6:53Speaker 2: like this woman's hat, that is considered a battery.
- 6:57Speaker 7: Regina, yes, it is, and him charging her is an assault.
- 7:02Speaker 7: A lot of people think that an assault and battery
- 7:04Speaker 7: kind of go together, where you can have an assault
- 7:07Speaker 7: without a battery. Always say that, you know, the definition
- 7:10Speaker 7: of assault is like when he charged. Putting a fear
- 7:12Speaker 7: into somebody and then raising your hand and is an assault.
- 7:18Speaker 7: That unwanted touch, even if it doesn't cause a bruise,
- 7:21Speaker 7: a scratch or anything, is an unwanted touch, and that's illegal.
- 7:25Speaker 2: It's what we call a simple battery. Now, if it escalates,
- 7:31Speaker 2: or if a weapon is used.
- 7:33Speaker 1: You point a gun at.
- 7:34Speaker 2: Someone, you don't shoot, but you point the gun at them,
- 7:37Speaker 2: that is an aggravated assault. As Regina just stated, correctly,
- 7:42Speaker 2: putting someone in fear of immediately immediate bodily harm is
- 7:47Speaker 2: an assault. If it's with a weapon, even your fists,
- 7:50Speaker 2: it's an aggravated assault. You can get twenty years to
- 7:52Speaker 2: life on that. In this case, it would be a
- 7:55Speaker 2: simple assault putting the woman in fear, or a simple battery,
- 8:00Speaker 2: you know, grabbing perhaps. Okay, back to Melissa Sfeiffer, who
- 8:06Speaker 2: filmed the incident, if I could get the control room
- 8:09Speaker 2: to please run it again.
- 8:10Speaker 1: As Melissa's talking.
- 8:11Speaker 2: Lissa, there's been a lot of confusion about what happened.
- 8:15Speaker 2: You're an eyewitness, tell me from the beginning.
- 8:18Speaker 6: So we were there and we were on the side
- 8:20Speaker 6: of the sidewalk that got aligned with the church. We
- 8:23Speaker 6: were protesting, and one of the neighbors had walked up
- 8:26Speaker 6: to us and was talking to us, so our backs
- 8:29Speaker 6: were turned towards the college. We couldn't see behind us, obviously,
- 8:34Speaker 6: and then one of the girls that was with us
- 8:38Speaker 6: had turned around and said, that's JP. And so when
- 8:42Speaker 6: we all turned around, we saw him and he was
- 8:45Speaker 6: like on the sidewalk part across the street at the school,
- 8:48Speaker 6: and it looked to me like he was possibly recording us.
- 8:51Speaker 6: I don't know exactly what he was trying to do,
- 8:53Speaker 6: nor do I know how long he been back there for.
- 8:58Speaker 6: When we turned around, when in our cameras at him, he.
- 9:01Speaker 8: Went to run off towards where his truck was, and
- 9:06Speaker 8: that's when the other protester who he assaulted was across uh.
- 9:12Speaker 8: She went to run across the street to see what
- 9:15Speaker 8: was going on because we didn't know why he was
- 9:17Speaker 8: over there, and that's where we park.
- 9:19Speaker 6: And you'll see in the videos she she's running at him,
- 9:23Speaker 6: but she stops at the cars. She stops well within
- 9:26Speaker 6: a healthy distance away from him, and then he stops
- 9:31Speaker 6: in the track, turns around and charges at her, and
- 9:35Speaker 6: you see her put her hands behind her back and
- 9:38Speaker 6: she stands there and you hear her on the video
- 9:40Speaker 6: say you're in my personal face. And he was in
- 9:43Speaker 6: her face saying what are you going to do? What
- 9:47Speaker 6: are you going to do? And then he hit the
- 9:50Speaker 6: brim of.
- 9:50Speaker 8: Her hat with his phone two times.
- 9:54Speaker 6: And then he went to walk off, and she that's
- 9:57Speaker 6: when she ran behind him, telling her him he didn't
- 9:59Speaker 6: get to touch Wow.
- 10:01Speaker 1: Okay.
- 10:02Speaker 2: Jackie here in the studio has a legal question Regene Award, and.
- 10:07Speaker 1: It's a good one.
- 10:09Speaker 2: She wants to know if an assault or battery charge
- 10:13Speaker 2: on Miller is appropriate if the victim was following him,
- 10:21Speaker 2: And my answer would be yes.
- 10:24Speaker 1: I mean, let's just take a street.
- 10:26Speaker 2: In Manhattan, for instance, people are this close together walking.
- 10:30Speaker 1: I mean, it's really packed. It's not a crime.
- 10:34Speaker 2: Or any sort of a torte to be walking closely
- 10:37Speaker 2: behind someone. Also, she stopped walking behind him, and he
- 10:43Speaker 2: got a distance away, and then he turned around and
- 10:46Speaker 2: charged at her.
- 10:47Speaker 1: We just saw that on the video.
- 10:49Speaker 7: Yes. In fact, because he was so far away, he
- 10:52Speaker 7: had an opportunity to leave the scene altogether and avoid
- 10:57Speaker 7: any confrontation. He took it u find himself. Of course,
- 11:01Speaker 7: he responded, probably from an emotional standpoint, turned around and
- 11:06Speaker 7: came back back towards the woman, so that when he
- 11:09Speaker 7: was on the other side of the parking lot, he
- 11:12Speaker 7: had what we call it an opportunity to leave. You know,
- 11:16Speaker 7: don't go back into a dangerous situation. You walk away,
- 11:20Speaker 7: not saying that was a dangerous situation in this case,
- 11:23Speaker 7: but when you have, you know, the opportunity to leave
- 11:28Speaker 7: and avoid that confrontation. He certainly had the ability to
- 11:33Speaker 7: do that, seemed and appeared to already be doing that.
- 11:37Speaker 7: But at some point he got emotional and turned around
- 11:41Speaker 7: and came back and wanted to confront or talk about
- 11:44Speaker 7: whatever it was he thought that upset him, that he
- 11:47Speaker 7: heard someone.
- 11:47Speaker 2: Say, well, of course, John Paul Miller's attorney, Russell Long,
- 11:54Speaker 2: is calling his arrest quote outrageous.
- 11:56Speaker 1: Listen.
- 11:57Speaker 9: Miller's attorney, Russell Long is calling Miller's arrest outrageous and
- 12:01Speaker 9: alleges that the women recording Miller make tying comments and
- 12:05Speaker 9: attempts to bait and coerce Miller. Long claims the city
- 12:08Speaker 9: of Myrtle Beach has failed Miller and Solid Rock Church
- 12:12Speaker 9: by allowing protesters to stalk in harassment Miller and his
- 12:15Speaker 9: church goers, effectively killing the church. Long says Miller's arrest
- 12:20Speaker 9: will only provide protesters with more bait and purpose and
- 12:23Speaker 9: worries that they will not stop.
- 12:25Speaker 2: I don't think the protesters are what is killing the church.
- 12:35Speaker 1: Crime stories with Nancy Grace.
- 12:41Speaker 2: In the Last Days, Mica Miller's pastor husband John Paul Miller,
- 12:46Speaker 2: accused of raping a fifteen year old little girl. In
- 12:52Speaker 2: a civil suit, the woman we know only as Jane
- 12:55Speaker 2: Doe claims this occurred in nineteen ninety eight eight, and
- 13:01Speaker 2: all that we are learning is in a forty three
- 13:03Speaker 2: page complaint filed in Hoary County Circuit Court. Now we learn,
- 13:11Speaker 2: according to her, the last incident occurred as recently as
- 13:15Speaker 2: twenty twenty three, according to the alleged victim, with John
- 13:22Speaker 2: Paul Miller allegedly grabbing her genitals in public that then
- 13:28Speaker 2: triggered repressed memories. Those repressed memories are alleged to be
- 13:36Speaker 2: an assault by Miller back in nineteen ninety eight when
- 13:40Speaker 2: she was fifteen and he was nineteen.
- 13:45Speaker 1: Now, as you know, the so.
- 13:47Speaker 2: Called pastor Miller under heavy scrutiny ever since his wife,
- 13:52Speaker 2: Micah was found dead in the Lumbee River State Park
- 13:56Speaker 2: last April from according to authorities.
- 14:00Speaker 1: A self inflicted gunshot.
- 14:02Speaker 2: Wound Lauren Conlin joining US investigative reporter and co host
- 14:06Speaker 2: of Prime Time Crime on YouTube and you can find
- 14:10Speaker 2: it pop Crime TV. Lauren, thank you for being with us.
- 14:14Speaker 2: I don't know if you're familiar with this, but sticks
- 14:17Speaker 2: and stones may break my bones, but words can never
- 14:20Speaker 2: hurt me.
- 14:20Speaker 1: So let me understand this. His lawyer is.
- 14:23Speaker 2: Claiming that women protesting taunted him with comments and.
- 14:30Speaker 1: That they're the bad guys.
- 14:32Speaker 10: Yes, apparently the women that are protesting for Micah are
- 14:36Speaker 10: the bad guys in this situation.
- 14:38Speaker 1: He said they baited him.
- 14:40Speaker 10: John Paul Miller is supposed to be a figure in
- 14:43Speaker 10: the community. He is a pastor, He is not supposed
- 14:46Speaker 10: to be baited and look, I understand that he is
- 14:49Speaker 10: a human being, but I did find it so interesting
- 14:52Speaker 10: Nancy when Ruffong said that the community.
- 14:56Speaker 1: Of Myrtle Beach was failing.
- 14:57Speaker 10: John Paul Miller and failing his church members. Well, Nancy,
- 15:02Speaker 10: what church are we talking about here? Are we talking
- 15:05Speaker 10: about solid rock? Because as of last week, there is
- 15:08Speaker 10: no longer a solid rock web say, there's not a
- 15:11Speaker 10: social media So.
- 15:14Speaker 6: Who who had these protesters failed?
- 15:16Speaker 1: Exactly?
- 15:17Speaker 2: Back to Melissa Pfeiffer joining us who videoed this the
- 15:22Speaker 2: alleged assault on a protester, once again, thank you for
- 15:25Speaker 2: being with us.
- 15:26Speaker 1: You hear that his lawyer is.
- 15:28Speaker 2: Claiming that you and the other protesters are the problem,
- 15:33Speaker 2: that you are harassing JP Miller, and that you are
- 15:36Speaker 2: harassing the church members, and that you have quote killed
- 15:41Speaker 2: the church.
- 15:41Speaker 1: What's your response.
- 15:43Speaker 6: I think the SBI rating JP's house is what took
- 15:46Speaker 6: down his church.
- 15:47Speaker 1: What do you mean by that.
- 15:48Speaker 6: We're not harassing, I mean they it's not a good
- 15:57Speaker 6: look to have your pastor be rated by this BI.
- 16:02Speaker 6: What have you done that? I mean, it's a concerning
- 16:07Speaker 6: statement that he would say that we are the reason
- 16:11Speaker 6: for the church shutting down instead of saying it's his
- 16:14Speaker 6: client's action.
- 16:15Speaker 2: I'm very curious as to how you respond to his
- 16:19Speaker 2: lawyer claiming that you are and the others other protesters
- 16:24Speaker 2: are harassing the church members.
- 16:26Speaker 11: Yeah.
- 16:27Speaker 6: They've been saying that since the beginning, that we are
- 16:30Speaker 6: harassing the church members, and I guess that they think
- 16:34Speaker 6: that because we chan't, that means we're harassing the church members.
- 16:38Speaker 6: I'm not harassing anybody. I'm exercising my First Amendment rights
- 16:43Speaker 6: and I am protesting.
- 16:46Speaker 1: There's never been.
- 16:50Speaker 6: Violence from our side. There's never been any any charges
- 16:57Speaker 6: on any of the protesters. There's never been in any
- 17:00Speaker 6: violence from our side. But what there has been is
- 17:04Speaker 6: violence from his church members and violence from him.
- 17:08Speaker 2: I've got a question, Melissa Pfiffer, why are you protesting
- 17:14Speaker 2: you and the others?
- 17:15Speaker 1: What do you hope to achieve.
- 17:19Speaker 6: For me? We all have our reasons for being out there.
- 17:23Speaker 6: One form or another of MICA's story has touched us each.
- 17:29Speaker 6: We've all been through things, and I protest because something
- 17:34Speaker 6: is not right and I want the truth to come out,
- 17:37Speaker 6: and I need for justice for Mica to be served
- 17:42Speaker 6: and I need him to be held accountable for whatever
- 17:45Speaker 6: it is. He is guilty of whatever, whatever he has
- 17:49Speaker 6: done that can be proven, he needs to be held
- 17:51Speaker 6: accountable for that, and Mica deserves justice.
- 17:56Speaker 12: I just want to let you know that I'm alive
- 17:58Speaker 12: and well, and I'm going through a lot and it's hard.
- 18:04Speaker 13: Micah Miller files for divorce after discovering multiple affairs by
- 18:08Speaker 13: her pastor husband. Micah says in the divorce filing that
- 18:12Speaker 13: she was a faithful and dutiful wife and that she
- 18:16Speaker 13: was quote devoted to their church and marriage.
- 18:19Speaker 12: It's been kind of crazy a couple past weeks, months years.
- 18:29Speaker 14: At Miller's arraignment, the victim's attorney asks the judge for
- 18:32Speaker 14: a no contact order, but the request is denied. Miller's attorney,
- 18:35Speaker 14: Russell Long And sists Miller did not assault the protester
- 18:39Speaker 14: and renews his call for help to stop the harassment
- 18:43Speaker 14: and stalking of Miller and his parishioners, John Paul. Miller
- 18:46Speaker 14: secures a seven hundred and seventy six dollars bond for
- 18:48Speaker 14: the misdemeanor assault charge and is released after spending the
- 18:51Speaker 14: night in jail. Miller is due back in court on
- 18:54Speaker 14: the charges next month.
- 18:56Speaker 2: I find it very interesting that the alleged victim in
- 18:58Speaker 2: this case a no contact order and didn't get one.
- 19:04Speaker 2: Her tires were flatted, a tracking device is placed on
- 19:10Speaker 2: her vehicle. I know this because JP Miller apologized reportedly
- 19:16Speaker 2: for doing that. Her semi nude shot was taken without
- 19:21Speaker 2: her knowledge and posted on some fetish website by JP Miller.
- 19:29Speaker 2: I don't know if he took the photo, if she
- 19:31Speaker 2: knew he took the photo, but she certainly did not
- 19:34Speaker 2: know he was posting it on a fetish website, and
- 19:37Speaker 2: he also apologized for that. None of these were ever prosecuted.
- 19:44Speaker 2: So now you have one of the protesters, the alleged victim,
- 19:49Speaker 2: asking for a no contact order to be put on
- 19:54Speaker 2: the reverend JP Miller, but the judge refuses. He's also
- 20:01Speaker 2: been released on seven hundred and seventy six dollars bond.
- 20:07Speaker 1: I mean, Lauren comin.
- 20:09Speaker 2: They might as well have just given him no bond
- 20:10Speaker 2: for Pete's sake, just let him walk out or released
- 20:14Speaker 2: oun recognisance.
- 20:15Speaker 10: Yes, I meant to point out earlier Nancy, that this
- 20:18Speaker 10: is not his first mugshot. He was arrested back in
- 20:22Speaker 10: nineteen ninety eight for assault and battery. It was later
- 20:25Speaker 10: dismissed and he got community service, and then he was
- 20:29Speaker 10: arrested again for driving with a suspended license, and I
- 20:32Speaker 10: believe he spent sixty days in.
- 20:34Speaker 2: Jail, you know, with the wife dead and a previous
- 20:39Speaker 2: wife claiming that she was abused in various manners. I
- 20:43Speaker 2: don't know why the judge didn't give this alleged victim
- 20:46Speaker 2: a no contact order. But that said, we now know
- 20:52Speaker 2: more about the FBI raid on Miller's home.
- 20:57Speaker 9: Pastor John Paul Miller isn't home and the FBI evidence
- 21:00Speaker 9: this response team shows up to rate his South Carolina home.
- 21:03Speaker 9: The FBI won't say what they're looking for in FBI
- 21:05Speaker 9: spokesman Kevin Wheeler tells you, I say today the FBI
- 21:08Speaker 9: is conducting court authorized law enforcement activity, been due to
- 21:10Speaker 9: the ongoing nature of the investigation, will be providing no
- 21:13Speaker 9: for their comments on the matter. The lawyer for Pastor
- 21:15Speaker 9: John Paul Miller, Russell Long, claims the FBI is on
- 21:18Speaker 9: a fishing expedition. There was no affidavit attached to the
- 21:21Speaker 9: search war and therefore I have no idea what it's
- 21:23Speaker 9: in relation to. All day long, members of the FBI's
- 21:26Speaker 9: Evidence Response team go in and out of the home
- 21:29Speaker 9: carrying paper bags and other items from the home.
- 21:31Speaker 1: Is the church alive and well seemingly not? Joining me?
- 21:37Speaker 2: Doctor Marlena Riba, a forensic psychologist who actually lives down
- 21:43Speaker 2: the street from the church.
- 21:45Speaker 1: What's happening at that church now? Doctor?
- 21:49Speaker 15: At this time, it looks like the church is pretty
- 21:51Speaker 15: much vacant. I believe it was the last weekend, or
- 21:54Speaker 15: maybe two weekends ago, it appeared that they were moving
- 21:58Speaker 15: a lot of the belongings of the church, So it
- 22:02Speaker 15: looks like they are sort of packing up and maybe
- 22:05Speaker 15: going to a different locations. There's also rumors that they
- 22:08Speaker 15: may be changing to a virtual sort of.
- 22:13Speaker 1: Platform.
- 22:14Speaker 15: So beyond that, I can't really speculate, but I can
- 22:18Speaker 15: tell you that every every Sunday there are barricades around
- 22:23Speaker 15: the church.
- 22:24Speaker 1: Part of that because.
- 22:25Speaker 15: Of the Justice for Mica protesters, and the police is
- 22:31Speaker 15: out there. So, you know, it's also kind of interesting
- 22:34Speaker 15: to me that the allegations from JP Miller would be
- 22:39Speaker 15: that the city of Myrtle Beach isn't doing enough to
- 22:41Speaker 15: kind of stop the harassment. It appears to me that,
- 22:44Speaker 15: you know, they're actually out there every weekend, making sure
- 22:48Speaker 15: that the tensions don't escalate. And as he's proven to us,
- 22:52Speaker 15: you know, just with this recent arrest, we now know
- 22:55Speaker 15: that he's capable of sort of escalating things to a
- 23:00Speaker 15: physical level when challenged or questioned.
- 23:04Speaker 2: You know, I find all of this extremely probative, Doctor Riva,
- 23:09Speaker 2: because many people do not believe that Micah committed suicide.
- 23:14Speaker 2: Others believe that she was driven to suicide by her husband,
- 23:21Speaker 2: the Reverend JP Miller, and there is precedent in our
- 23:26Speaker 2: country for prosecuting someone who drives another to suicide. In
- 23:34Speaker 2: this brand new civil lawsuit, claims are made that the
- 23:37Speaker 2: trauma of an earlier alleged sex assault was quote deeply
- 23:42Speaker 2: buried and the Jane Doe had no conscious recollection of
- 23:47Speaker 2: the assault. All this coming out after Micah Miller found
- 23:53Speaker 2: dead by gunshot wound after serving husband John Paul Miller
- 23:58Speaker 2: with divorce papers. Police have ruled her death a suicide,
- 24:03Speaker 2: but many do not accept that ruling. You know, we
- 24:07Speaker 2: were talking briefly about the FBI raid and that would
- 24:12Speaker 2: have been on Miller's home. It's never a good thing,
- 24:15Speaker 2: as I like to say, when you look out your
- 24:18Speaker 2: kitchen window and you see the FBI coming through your trash.
- 24:21Speaker 1: Yeah, you're in trouble. They did a full on raid
- 24:25Speaker 1: on his home.
- 24:27Speaker 2: Regina Ward, the attorney from Mica, his family saw part
- 24:31Speaker 2: of that raid. What were they taking out, Regina?
- 24:34Speaker 7: Oh yeah, I was there, and they took out lots
- 24:38Speaker 7: of different things in terms of but mostly it was packaged,
- 24:41Speaker 7: sealed covered and bags, small bags, big bags. There were
- 24:46Speaker 7: boxes that came out as well. I saw them take
- 24:49Speaker 7: out one thing that was not covered was all in
- 24:52Speaker 7: one computer from and put that in the evidence truck.
- 24:56Speaker 7: There were multiple things that they brought out. At some
- 24:59Speaker 7: point they closed the broad store too, so they must
- 25:02Speaker 7: have been filtering through that and taken out other evidence
- 25:06Speaker 7: from there. The day that John Paul Miller was released
- 25:12Speaker 7: from jail on bond, that just happened.
- 25:16Speaker 6: To be.
- 25:18Speaker 7: Or the seventh year anniversary their wedding anniversary.
- 25:22Speaker 1: So I thought to myself, Mine, what.
- 25:24Speaker 7: A wonderful gift he gave her walking out of there
- 25:28Speaker 7: with his mugshot all over the world.
- 25:31Speaker 12: I've had a lot.
- 25:32Speaker 3: Of women that have reached out to me about situations
- 25:36Speaker 3: of abuse, and.
- 25:40Speaker 1: I just want.
- 25:42Speaker 3: To tell you what a lot of people have told
- 25:43Speaker 3: me lately and reminded me because I think I forgot
- 25:48Speaker 3: I knew, but I for I pushed it in the
- 25:51Speaker 3: back of my head just because of my situation. But
- 25:56Speaker 3: you are the bride of Christ. God hates But why?
- 26:01Speaker 3: According to everybody I've asked and the scriptures that I've found,
- 26:05Speaker 3: it's because it hurts people. But does abuse hurt people?
- 26:11Speaker 3: How do you think God feels about that?
- 26:14Speaker 9: Micah Miller is born in Wichita, Kansas, and grows up
- 26:17Speaker 9: as an adventurous, energetic, and giving person. Always a hard worker.
- 26:21Speaker 9: She gets to know her future husband when she is
- 26:23Speaker 9: just fifteen years old and he is her church youth leader.
- 26:27Speaker 16: Privately, she tells her sister she is afraid of John
- 26:30Speaker 16: Paul Miller, going so far as to tell her sister,
- 26:32Speaker 16: Sierra Francis, if I end up with a bullet in my.
- 26:35Speaker 1: Head, it was JP.
- 26:39Speaker 17: Attorney Regina Ward is also revealing that she received a
- 26:42Speaker 17: subpoena for a grand jury investigating John Paul Miller months
- 26:46Speaker 17: before the raid. Ward claims the document she provided help
- 26:49Speaker 17: the FBI obtain the search warrant for John Paul Miller's home.
- 26:53Speaker 17: Ward is competent and indictment is coming, and reports that
- 26:56Speaker 17: a new potential witness has stepped forward as a result
- 26:58Speaker 17: of the search.
- 27:00Speaker 9: Overseeing the investigation are asking for any potential witnesses and
- 27:04Speaker 9: victims to come forward. Anyone with information is asked to
- 27:07Speaker 9: call the FBI Myrtle Beach at eight four three six
- 27:10Speaker 9: two six seven four seven six, or use the FBI's
- 27:14Speaker 9: online tip form.
- 27:15Speaker 18: All right, here we go, a grand jury meeting calling
- 27:20Speaker 18: witnesses regarding an investigation of the Reverend J. P.
- 27:26Speaker 1: Miller.
- 27:27Speaker 2: This after the suicide of his wife Micah and joining
- 27:32Speaker 2: me Regina Ward, Michael Miller's family lawyer.
- 27:36Speaker 1: What's it all about? What are they investigating? Regina?
- 27:40Speaker 7: Well, the grand jury subpoena that I received asking for
- 27:43Speaker 7: me to appear. I wanted to make this clear they
- 27:48Speaker 7: were asking. It's a subpoena, dius. Just take what says
- 27:51Speaker 7: that they want my documents and the things that I
- 27:54Speaker 7: have in my possession.
- 27:55Speaker 1: On page two.
- 27:56Speaker 7: It lists multiple things that they want me to They
- 27:59Speaker 7: wanted me to produced relevant to certain situations and what
- 28:03Speaker 7: I would say, certain types of crimes in my observation
- 28:08Speaker 7: of it. However, those are things that I will not
- 28:11Speaker 7: and cannot reveal. I don't want to, you know, interfere
- 28:15Speaker 7: or jeopardize investigation whatsoever. But they, you know, came and
- 28:21Speaker 7: took all of my entire file, everything that Micah gave me,
- 28:25Speaker 7: and everything else that I had put together, even myself.
- 28:29Speaker 7: I also wanted to point out you've asked, you know,
- 28:31Speaker 7: we've talked about his adultery. It is a crime in
- 28:34Speaker 7: South Carolina to commit adultery. It's actually a statute that
- 28:38Speaker 7: carries up to one year in jail, which is pretty interesting.
- 28:42Speaker 7: But also the other thing is we talked about the
- 28:46Speaker 7: dissemination of the photograph. In South Carolina, we're the only
- 28:50Speaker 7: state that doesn't have a law against that. Now, we
- 28:53Speaker 7: do have a law against disseminating obscene photos and you know,
- 28:58Speaker 7: things like that, and it does have a penalty, but
- 29:02Speaker 7: it's really geared towards the person receiving it did not
- 29:06Speaker 7: want to receive it. The law that we have doesn't
- 29:09Speaker 7: necessarily address where the photograph came from. It only addresses
- 29:14Speaker 7: really like the recipient, someone who sees it if they're
- 29:18Speaker 7: offended by it.
- 29:19Speaker 2: So I don't want to pry into what was the
- 29:24Speaker 2: target of a subpoena. Duca's teakum, which is, you know,
- 29:27Speaker 2: typically we hear about subpoenas for you to show up
- 29:29Speaker 2: to court a duke's teakem is to bring documents or objects.
- 29:33Speaker 2: But let me ask you this, in which direction do
- 29:37Speaker 2: you believe the grand jury is going.
- 29:40Speaker 1: Are they looking for some type of fraud.
- 29:43Speaker 2: Are they looking for transporting miners across state lines for
- 29:46Speaker 2: the purposes of sex? Are they looking for underage sex activity?
- 29:51Speaker 2: Where do you think they're headed?
- 29:53Speaker 1: And is it a federal grand jury or a local
- 29:56Speaker 1: grand jury? It was a federal grand jury.
- 29:58Speaker 7: And it was a subpoena che to appear with an
- 30:01Speaker 7: alternate to bring documents.
- 30:03Speaker 3: I want to make that clear.
- 30:04Speaker 7: And I was able to provide you with the waivers
- 30:07Speaker 7: so you don't have to appear before the grand jury.
- 30:09Speaker 7: I just submit all of my documents and the investigator,
- 30:14Speaker 7: excuse me, the agent that's assigned to it, and the prosecutor.
- 30:17Speaker 7: They're the ones that present it to the grand jury
- 30:20Speaker 7: in order to get the search for it.
- 30:24Speaker 1: Okay, guys.
- 30:25Speaker 2: In the midst of all of this, we are learning
- 30:29Speaker 2: that JB. Miller reportedly already has a girlfriend.
- 30:35Speaker 17: Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, is buzzing with rumors that Pastor
- 30:38Speaker 17: John Paul Miller is dating again and has possibly even remarried.
- 30:42Speaker 17: Miller was previously seen out to dinner with a member
- 30:45Speaker 17: of his congregation just four days after Micah Miller's suicide.
- 30:49Speaker 17: Less than twenty four hours after his home is rated
- 30:52Speaker 17: by the FBI, Miller is seen with the same woman
- 30:55Speaker 17: having lunch at McAllister's Delhi. This time, the pair cap
- 30:58Speaker 17: their distance and appear ten when entering and leaving the.
- 31:01Speaker 9: Restaurant, claiming he's still wearing the ring he wed Micah with,
- 31:05Speaker 9: Miller laughed off reporter's questions about his love life, saying
- 31:08Speaker 9: he's quote still dealing with Micah, still dealing with Micah.
- 31:16Speaker 2: His wife is dead and he refers to that as
- 31:19Speaker 2: still dealing with Micah.
- 31:22Speaker 11: You know.
- 31:24Speaker 2: Joining me is a well known a veteran law enforcement detective,
- 31:31Speaker 2: owner and chief investigator for Barry and Associates Investigation Services.
- 31:35Speaker 2: Barry Hutchinson is joining us and you can find him
- 31:38Speaker 2: online at Pibarrybarry dot com. Barry this thing stinks to
- 31:44Speaker 2: high Heaven, I mean, Barry this guy. Pastor Miller immediately
- 31:51Speaker 2: has a girlfriend after Micah's apparent suicide, and when asked
- 31:57Speaker 2: about it, he says, I'm still dealing with Micah.
- 32:00Speaker 1: That's not a good look.
- 32:01Speaker 2: No, it's not a crime, but it sure doesn't look
- 32:04Speaker 2: good when you're in the middle of a grand jury probe.
- 32:06Speaker 19: You know you made the comment of jumping out of
- 32:08Speaker 19: a frying pan into the fire. I want to add
- 32:10Speaker 19: something to you that you're not only are you doing that,
- 32:13Speaker 19: but you're doing it in gas soaked underwear.
- 32:18Speaker 7: You know, this.
- 32:19Speaker 19: Guy, he's you know, he's as dirty as they can
- 32:23Speaker 19: get they I agree with the thousand percent the guy
- 32:26Speaker 19: he's dirty. I mean, there's something wrong with this entire situation.
- 32:31Speaker 19: I can't say what I actually want to say about him,
- 32:33Speaker 19: but it's not a good situation.
- 32:36Speaker 1: I just leave it at that. Straight back out to
- 32:38Speaker 1: Lauren Colin joining us. Lauren the woman.
- 32:42Speaker 2: At issue, Okay, the one that he's having lunch with.
- 32:45Speaker 2: He's been spotted around town with her very soon after
- 32:51Speaker 2: Mike's suicide. Now question where exactly were they seen.
- 32:56Speaker 1: Most recently, it was.
- 32:57Speaker 10: At a restaurant a few days after Micah's death that
- 33:01Speaker 10: they were first seen by the public, and then the
- 33:05Speaker 10: day that JP's house got rated by the FBI, they
- 33:09Speaker 10: were seen having lunch.
- 33:11Speaker 2: Let me be clear, we cannot prove in any way
- 33:15Speaker 2: that these two are having an affair. For all I
- 33:18Speaker 2: know they're bonding over their respective spouses committing suicide.
- 33:24Speaker 1: We don't know that.
- 33:26Speaker 2: But what I do know is that Solid Rock Church
- 33:30Speaker 2: appears to be over listen.
- 33:33Speaker 9: It appears Pastor John Paul Miller and other staff members
- 33:36Speaker 9: are emptying Solid Rock Church, likely due to the scrutiny
- 33:39Speaker 9: of the organization is under while Miller faces accusations that
- 33:42Speaker 9: he drove his wife, Micah to suicide. Miller's Faith First
- 33:46Speaker 9: School is also cleared, with staff posting online that members
- 33:50Speaker 9: of the congregation are welcome to anything they want. Solid
- 33:53Speaker 9: Rock sign has also been taken down.
- 34:01Speaker 1: Crime stories with Nancy Grace in new Bombshell papers, the
- 34:10Speaker 1: alleged victim in the civil lawsuit says she had been
- 34:13Speaker 1: attending Sunday School at Miller's father's church when the now
- 34:18Speaker 1: pastor John Paul Miller forced her into his father's office,
- 34:22Speaker 1: shutting the door behind them and immediately becoming aggressive and
- 34:26Speaker 1: overpowering her. She says she struggled.
- 34:29Speaker 2: And pled with him to stop, but he led her
- 34:32Speaker 2: from the office to outside the church, that she was
- 34:35Speaker 2: forced into his truck and raped. That was years ago,
- 34:39Speaker 2: but this twenty twenty three incident, according to her, sparked
- 34:44Speaker 2: the lawsuit, and it involved the pair meeting in Myrtle Beach.
- 34:48Speaker 2: While she was there with a friend, she says, Pastor
- 34:52Speaker 2: John Paul Miller leaned in to hug her and shoved
- 34:55Speaker 2: his hand down her pants without her consent.
- 34:59Speaker 20: He so.
- 35:00Speaker 2: It also names All Nations Church, which was led by
- 35:03Speaker 2: his father, Reginald Wayne Miller, and against his own church Cathedral,
- 35:09Speaker 2: Baptists of the Grand Strand and Solid Rocke Ministries all
- 35:15Speaker 2: named as defendants. All this coming to light after the
- 35:22Speaker 2: death of his young wife, Micah Miller. I remember the
- 35:27Speaker 2: facts very well.
- 35:29Speaker 17: Sarah McDougall says. Micah Miller did not kill herself, saying
- 35:32Speaker 17: we don't really know who pulled the trigger, and conceding
- 35:35Speaker 17: that Micah Miller may very well have. McDougall says, even
- 35:38Speaker 17: if Michah Miller did technically pull the trigger, Michah Miller
- 35:42Speaker 17: did not kill herself. McDougall says, sworn testimony of family
- 35:46Speaker 17: and friends confirms her non suicidal state of mind prior
- 35:49Speaker 17: to her death, and the fact that she had recently
- 35:51Speaker 17: shipped belongings to Africa to start fresh doing mission service overseas.
- 35:55Speaker 17: All points to Micah Miller not being suicidal at the
- 35:58Speaker 17: time she killed herself.
- 35:59Speaker 1: The only one not to blame. I'm the only one
- 36:03Speaker 1: who tried to help her, keep her alive with me.
- 36:05Speaker 10: She never commits tor side with me.
- 36:06Speaker 6: She's happy, healthy, whole.
- 36:08Speaker 1: That last bit Miller speaking and claiming he's the only
- 36:11Speaker 1: one that kept her alive.
- 36:15Speaker 2: That's our friends at WPDEABC fifteen two. Doctor jan Gorniac
- 36:22Speaker 2: joining us a renowned medical examiner at the Clark County
- 36:28Speaker 2: Office of Coroner.
- 36:29Speaker 1: That's where she practiced most of her time. That's Vegas.
- 36:32Speaker 2: Never a lack of business in the morgue there, doctor Gorniac.
- 36:36Speaker 2: As of now, her death has been ruled as suicide.
- 36:40Speaker 2: To prove that, you're going to have to look at
- 36:44Speaker 2: a body that had been submerged in water. So how
- 36:47Speaker 2: would you find, for instance, stippling gunshot residue burning around
- 36:53Speaker 2: the wound, or gunshot residue on the hand, How would
- 36:58Speaker 2: you determine that's a suicide if all on the gunshot
- 37:03Speaker 2: residue is gone having been submerged in water, Doctor gorneant.
- 37:07Speaker 21: Well in order to determine manner death, and that's what
- 37:10Speaker 21: we're talking about when we say suicide with something ruled
- 37:12Speaker 21: a suicide, we're talking about manner death. The manner death
- 37:16Speaker 21: comes from the circumstances. So it's not just the body,
- 37:19Speaker 21: it's the circumstances that we have to know. So you
- 37:23Speaker 21: said that you was in water, is the gun still there?
- 37:29Speaker 21: We also have to look into someone's medical history. Are
- 37:32Speaker 21: there any stressors? So, for instance, besides the medical history,
- 37:37Speaker 21: when you say medical history, you think about diabetes or
- 37:40Speaker 21: high blood pressure, but we also have to talk about
- 37:42Speaker 21: mental health history. And then also we always have to
- 37:46Speaker 21: ask has there been any suicide ideations, any talk about suicide?
- 37:52Speaker 21: Have there been any attempts at suicide prior attempts? So
- 37:55Speaker 21: all of that comes into play.
- 37:59Speaker 20: So we can look at We can look at the body.
- 38:01Speaker 20: Some of the stuff might be washed away, like you said,
- 38:03Speaker 20: the soot, but the skin is still going to be
- 38:05Speaker 20: burned if it's a close contact wound. Also we can
- 38:09Speaker 20: look at the bone. There might be foot on the
- 38:13Speaker 20: bone underneath, and that would say it's a close contact
- 38:16Speaker 20: wound also, But in order to call something a suicide,
- 38:20Speaker 20: it's more dependent on the circumstances than it is the
- 38:24Speaker 20: wound itself. But I mean, obviously we have to make
- 38:26Speaker 20: sure the wound matches. Now we have a excuse me,
- 38:31Speaker 20: a gunshot wound that is a distant gunshot wound at
- 38:34Speaker 20: the back of the head, most likely not a suicide.
- 38:38Speaker 20: So part of our job is to prove or disprove
- 38:41Speaker 20: the circumstances. So a gunshot wound close contact, right to left,
- 38:46Speaker 20: left to right, whatever the direction is, that's more consistent
- 38:49Speaker 20: with a suicide. But that's in conjunction with the circumstances.
- 38:54Speaker 2: Now interesting that in this case, doctor Gorniac, her own
- 38:59Speaker 2: family said that she feared for her life, that she
- 39:02Speaker 2: would never make it through the divorce alive. Those are
- 39:05Speaker 2: Micah's words, not mine. We have PRESDA in the US
- 39:09Speaker 2: regarding those individuals that drive someone obviously probatively drive someone
- 39:17Speaker 2: to suicide, like Michelle Carter.
- 39:20Speaker 9: Conrad Roy, then Michelle Carter connect over both being diagnosed
- 39:23Speaker 9: with depression, and when Roy tells Carter he wants to
- 39:25Speaker 9: kill himself, she encourages him to do it, deciding to
- 39:28Speaker 9: use a generator in his truck and die by carbon monoxide.
- 39:31Speaker 9: Michelle Carter helps him decide on where to park his
- 39:34Speaker 9: truck so he could die as carbon monoxide begins to
- 39:37Speaker 9: fill his strug cabin. Conrad Roy the Third gets out,
- 39:40Speaker 9: texting Michelle Carter he'll do it another day. Carter texts
- 39:43Speaker 9: to Roy are challenging, telling him he overthinks things. Carter texts, Roy,
- 39:47Speaker 9: you just said you were gonna do it tonight and
- 39:50Speaker 9: now you're saying eventually. Carter tells Roy to get back
- 39:53Speaker 9: in the truck. Authorities discovered the body of Conrad Roy
- 39:56Speaker 9: the Third in his pickup truck parked outside of kmart
- 39:59Speaker 9: and fair Haven message JUSS the next day. He was eighteen.
- 40:02Speaker 2: She was prosecuted for driving her very young and inexperienced
- 40:06Speaker 2: boyfriend to suicide.
- 40:09Speaker 1: If you had seen the text that she sent him,
- 40:12Speaker 1: just do it.
- 40:13Speaker 2: What are you waiting for? Are you going to do it? Well,
- 40:15Speaker 2: he did it and now he's dead and she went
- 40:18Speaker 2: to jail. Mimi argue that Pastor Miller drove his wife
- 40:23Speaker 2: to suicide.
- 40:24Speaker 9: Listen, Michah Miller's best friend remembers being dragged into one
- 40:28Speaker 9: of many marital fights instigated by loving husband Pastor John
- 40:31Speaker 9: Paul Miller. Charlotte Corn finds herself in a group tanks
- 40:35Speaker 9: with the couple after Miller presses Micah on an odd question.
- 40:38Speaker 2: Okay, baiting, baiting her, but this is what happened.
- 40:43Speaker 1: Talk about a head gang. Listen.
- 40:45Speaker 9: Miller continues on this tirade, spiraling into a huge fight.
- 40:48Speaker 9: Micah leaves to cool off, and that's when Miller threatens
- 40:51Speaker 9: to follow Micah to her sister's home, well armed, and
- 40:54Speaker 9: donate all of Micah's belongings if she doesn't return home immediately.
- 40:58Speaker 2: Okay, let me understand something, Regina Ward, this is just
- 41:01Speaker 2: one of the many mind games pastor Miller reportedly, I'm
- 41:08Speaker 2: sure he would deny all of this if he were
- 41:10Speaker 2: to join us, which he declined, Regina Ward, baiting her
- 41:14Speaker 2: and then he turned it around on her.
- 41:16Speaker 7: Yes, that's a classic tactic control, a classic tactic of
- 41:21Speaker 7: a control course of control person. They're always baiting, pushing,
- 41:25Speaker 7: pushing tribes ideas in your head to make you feel crazy,
- 41:30Speaker 7: to get you to come in to their little snare
- 41:34Speaker 7: so then they can whip it around on you. It's
- 41:36Speaker 7: a coercal control tactic excuse quite frequently, and based on
- 41:40Speaker 7: the evidence that I have that Michael left with me.
- 41:43Speaker 7: In the history of mister Miller, this was nothing unusual.
- 41:46Speaker 7: It was it the first time, and probably wasn't the
- 41:48Speaker 7: last time, and I wouldn't be surprised if he used
- 41:51Speaker 7: the same type of tactics on her on the day
- 41:53Speaker 7: that she passed.
- 41:55Speaker 13: After Micah's tires have been slashed and a GPS tracker
- 41:59Speaker 13: is removed from her car, she gets an apology email
- 42:02Speaker 13: from John Paul Miller. In the apology email, pastor John
- 42:06Speaker 13: Paul Miller tells his estranged wife, quote, when someone hurts me,
- 42:10Speaker 13: I try to hurt them back rather than forgive. He
- 42:14Speaker 13: goes on to say, quote instead of forgiving you, I
- 42:18Speaker 13: just attack and try to cause pain.
- 42:20Speaker 2: A GPS tracker placed on her car, her tires slashed,
- 42:25Speaker 2: Was she driven to commit suicide?
- 42:29Speaker 1: And that's not all? Listen.
- 42:31Speaker 16: Micah contacted police after her estranged husband posted an indecent
- 42:35Speaker 16: photo of her on a Facebook group called Big Boobs
- 42:38Speaker 16: and Nice Curves. Police told Micah since the photo was
- 42:41Speaker 16: posted anonymously, there was nothing they could do. John Paul
- 42:45Speaker 16: Miller apologized to Micah via email, telling her I'm sorry
- 42:48Speaker 16: for putting a picture of you on the internet. He added,
- 42:51Speaker 16: I just wanted to try and hurt you. He also
- 42:53Speaker 16: included it was evil of me to do that.
- 42:56Speaker 2: Hey know doctor Marlena raiba is with US forensic psychologist
- 42:59Speaker 2: and rear Its consultant. Doctor Marlena part of part of
- 43:05Speaker 2: the whole series of assaults in the sense of slashing tires,
- 43:12Speaker 2: putting a track, or posting her semi nude on some
- 43:16Speaker 2: fetish website, is that it's someone that you trust and
- 43:21Speaker 2: that you love, which in my mind makes it so
- 43:25Speaker 2: much worse.
- 43:26Speaker 15: If you're absolutely correct, And I think when you're thinking
- 43:30Speaker 15: about someone with these sort of personality characteristics that are
- 43:35Speaker 15: that do align sort of with narcissism and kind of
- 43:39Speaker 15: this very egocentric way of being, right, there's this need
- 43:45Speaker 15: of control. They tend to disregard the feelings of others.
- 43:50Speaker 15: They're insensitive to the memory of Mica, and so you know,
- 43:56Speaker 15: even some of the behaviors that we saw in in
- 44:01Speaker 15: the church, right, a lot of that seems to mimic
- 44:05Speaker 15: some of those behaviors. And you're right in that it
- 44:09Speaker 15: is so much worse because that person is sort of
- 44:12Speaker 15: taking that person's on that individual's vulnerabilities and exploiting them.
- 44:18Speaker 2: Melissa five for joining us who has been outside the
- 44:22Speaker 2: church protesting Melissa, what exactly about all of this makes
- 44:29Speaker 2: you feel you need to go out and.
- 44:32Speaker 6: Protest everything, everything that Micah has said. We all of
- 44:38Speaker 6: us that are out there protesting. We believe Micah, and.
- 44:44Speaker 11: She's not here anymore. And I believe that if if
- 44:47Speaker 11: we stay quiet, and I believe that this will will
- 44:51Speaker 11: be washed away. It needs attention. It can't just we
- 44:55Speaker 11: can't play bystander effect.
- 44:58Speaker 2: We know that a grandeur is meeting and the target
- 45:02Speaker 2: of that grand jury is John Paul Miller.
- 45:06Speaker 1: We also know.
- 45:08Speaker 2: That MICA's death has been ruled a suicide.
- 45:12Speaker 1: We wait as just as simpoles.
- 45:14Speaker 2: And let me remind everyone in our country, you are innocent,
- 45:21Speaker 2: absolutely innocent, until you are proven guilty beyond a reasonable
- 45:26Speaker 2: doubt in a court of law. As of right now,
- 45:32Speaker 2: Miller is innocent in the eyes of the law.
- 45:37Speaker 1: Let's just see what happens.
- 45:40Speaker 2: Nancy Gray signing off, goodbye friend.
