TSP #73 - Justice for Mica: With FBI Raid, JP Miller’s World Comes Crumbling Down
UPDATE: JP Miller was arrested for third degree assault.
Justice for Mica Miller is percolating six months and more than 20 episodes after investigative journalists Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell began reporting her the death and what her life looked like in the leadup to it. On Friday, the FBI finally moved in on Mica’s husband...
Myrtle Beach Pastor JP Miller, who stands accused of harassing, stalking and coercively controlling her during their marriage. For more than five hours, around two dozen federal agents searched his house and left with computers and boxes of alleged evidence.
On this deep dive episode, Mandy, Liz and reporter Beth Braden — talk about how the raid unfolded and what happens next. Days after the raid, JP’s church, Solid Rock At Market Common, appears to have shut its doors for good... What is JP doing with all the church’s assets...? Look like a fire-sale to commemorate the occasion.
Plus, updates in the Bowen Turner case and the terms of his parole. And what is happening to Christa Bauer Gilley’s kids now that their father, Lee Gilley, is out on bond after being charged with their mother’s murder?
