Pastor’s wife Mica Miller died jus days after filing for divorce from her husband John-Paul Miller.
Mica, 30, was found dead at Lumbee River State Park, North Carolina, on April 27.
Days Before She Died
Weeks before she died Mica posted an emotional video in which she spoke of abuse within marriage and offered support to ‘ANYONE struggling with leaving a dangerous situation because they think God will be ‘mad’ at them.’
She said: ‘Today my heart’s a little heavy. I’ve had lots of women that have reached out to me about situations of abuse, and I just want to tell you what a lot of people have told me lately, because I think I forgot.
‘But you are the bride of Christ before anybody else’s, male or female, it doesn’t matter what gender you are, abuse is abuse.’
Cause of Death
However, the pastor shocked his congregants last week when, after a service in which he had laughed and appeared entirely at ease, he announced that his wife had died and that her death was ‘self-induced.’
Now, Robeson County Medical Examiner Dr. Richard Johnson has also confirmed: ‘Based on the nature of the wound, that it is consistent with a self-inflicted gunshot wound. And it was not in the back of the head, as it has been speculated.’

On Monday, before her cause of death was announced, ABC reported that Mica had filed police reports against a man – whose name was redacted in the reports – in March accusing him of harassing her.
She had told officers that she was ‘afraid for her life’, had found a tracking device on her car and had her tires repeatedly deflated.
In the days after her death, her friends and family held a rally calling for ‘justice for Mica’ outside the Solid Rock Church where Miller works.
