Mica Miller’s 911 Calls: Evidence of Husband’s Harassment
Bharatmorning.com – Was Mica Miller harassed by husband JP Miller? Fourteen police dispatch records and 911 transcripts released in December 2024 suggest she was. The Netflix documentary Death of the Pastor’s Wife brought renewed attention to the April 2024 killing of a North Carolina woman whose estranged spouse, John-Paul “JP” Miller, founded and led Solid Rock Church in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. The calls, spanning February through mid-April 2024, document a woman repeatedly asking law enforcement for protection from surveillance, intimidation, and control.
Fourteen Calls and the Tracker Pattern
Between February 7 and April 15, 2024, Mica contacted South Carolina police at least fourteen times over disputes tied to her marriage. Five of those calls specifically involved GPS tracking devices she believed had been fixed to her vehicles without consent. In one March incident, a tracker was discovered the day before a scheduled court appearance; courthouse surveillance footage showed no one placing the device near her car. She interpreted the find as an attempt to keep her from appearing in court. Her final tracker-related call came on April 15 — twelve days before her body was found.
On February 6, 2024, JP Miller called police claiming a “mental health pick-up order” for his wife, citing bipolar disorder and schizophrenia. While she was driving, he relayed her real-time location to officers, saying he was “watching her on the map.” Dispatch notes recorded that she was not violent and that no one was in danger. Under that order she was hospitalized from February 8 through 10. During the stay she told officers her husband had taken her phone, laptop, purse, notary seal, and car. At discharge the vehicle remained missing; he told police he would not return it for a full month, attributing the dispute to what he called medication-related “episodes.” Officers classified the matter as civil.
The Final Days and What Followed
Family members and close friends featured in the documentary described a marriage marked by alleged infidelity, sustained emotional abuse, and ongoing harassment after separation. Loved ones recounted that Mica described a spouse who maintained multiple affairs, refused to let her sleep until they had sex, and coerced her into sexual contact with homeless men. She served divorce papers less than forty-eight hours before her death. Subsequent court filings added further abuse allegations from multiple individuals, including his first wife.
In one of her last 911 calls, Mica said she intended to take her own life and asked that her family be able to find her. Her body was located at Lumber River State Park in North Carolina on April 27, 2024, bearing a gunshot wound to the head. Earlier that day she had purchased a handgun at Dick’s Pawn Shop in Myrtle Beach.

Authorities have not formally named JP Miller as a suspect in the death. He faces federal cyberstalking charges spanning seventeen months before April 2024, plus charges of making false statements to investigators about an incident in which he allegedly damaged her tires. He has pleaded not guilty; trial is scheduled for October.
