Crime Stories with Nancy Grace MICA MILLER PASTOR HUSBAND ARRESTED: GRIM MUG SHOT
Police arrested Pastor John-Paul Miller on assault charges unrelated to his wife’s suicide.
Protesters seeking “Justice for Mica” have been stationed outside Miller’s Solid Rock Church for weeks, and their heckling has apparently affected Miller. When a woman among the protesters called out, “Here, kitty, kitty...” as Miller walked by, Miller allegedly approached her, leaned close, and slapped her baseball cap twice before walking away. Miller now faces third-degree assault and battery charges.
Miller’s attorney, Russel Long, called the arrest “outrageous” and claimed that the women recording Miller make taunting comments to bait and provoke him. Long argued that the city of Myrtle Beach has failed to protect Miller and Solid Rock Church by allowing “protesters” to stalk and harass Miller and his congregants, effectively “killing the church.”
He expressed concern that Miller’s arrest will only give protesters more motivation and momentum.
