JP Miller Finally Facing Federal Charges — What the Indictment Reveals About Mica Miller's Final Months

A federal grand jury has indicted Myrtle Beach pastor John-Paul Miller on charges of cyberstalking and making false statements to investigators — charges directly connected to the death of his wife Mica Miller, who was found dead from a gunshot wound in April 2024. But Mica isn't the only spouse linked to this man who's no longer alive. According to court documents, Chris Skinner — a quadriplegic Army veteran — drowned in a neighborhood pool in 2021 just two weeks after confronting Miller about an alleged affair with his wife. That woman, Suzie Skinner, is now married to JP Miller. The federal indictment alleges Miller engaged in a sustained harassment campaign against Mica from November 2022 until her death. Prosecutors say he posted intimate photos of her online without consent, placed tracking devices on her vehicle, contacted her over fifty times in a single day, and lied to federal investigators about damaging her tires. This comes on top of two civil lawsuits filed in 2025 accusing Miller of sexually assaulting minors in the late 1990s. Both lawsuits also name his father, Reginald Wayne Miller, and allege the family's churches operated without safeguards and enabled abuse for decades. Mica's family has never accepted the official suicide ruling. Her sister testified under oath that Mica told her: "If I end up with a bullet in my head, it was not by me, it was JP." Miller's arraignment is set for January 12, 2026. He faces up to seven years in federal prison if convicted. In this episode, we break down the federal indictment, the documented pattern of alleged abuse, the sexual assault lawsuits, the other suspicious death, and everything that led to this moment. #MicaMiller #JPMiller #JusticeForMica #TrueCrime #SolidRockChurch #MyrtleBeach #FederalIndictment #CoerciveControl #ChrisSkinner #CrimePsych Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Former FBI Special Agent Robin Dreeke — who ran the Bureau's Counterintelligence Behavioral Analysis Program — joins me to break down the psychology behind the JP Miller case and what the federal indictment reveals about predatory behavior and coercive control. A federal grand jury just indicted Myrtle Beach pastor JP Miller on charges of cyberstalking and making false statements to investigators. The charges stem from a documented pattern of harassment against his wife Mica Miller in the months before her death in April 2024. According to the indictment, Miller posted intimate photos of her online without consent, placed tracking devices on her vehicle, contacted her over fifty times in a single day, and lied to federal investigators about sabotaging her car. But the indictment only scratches the surface. Sworn affidavits describe years of coercive control — isolation, financial manipulation, threats, surveillance. Mica told police JP had "groomed" her since she was a child. His first wife says she went to police in 2015 after he confessed to being inappropriate with underage church members. She says they told her no one would believe her. Two civil lawsuits now accuse Miller of sexually assaulting minors in the late 1990s. Both name his father as a co-defendant and allege their churches enabled abuse for decades. And then there's the other death. Chris Skinner — a quadriplegic Army veteran — drowned in 2021, two weeks after allegedly confronting Miller about an affair with his wife. That wife is now married to JP Miller. Robin Dreeke has spent his career studying manipulation, deception, and how predators operate. In this interview, he analyzes the behavioral patterns in this case — the pulpit announcement, the documented control tactics, the lies that caught Miller, and what it takes to stop someone like this. #MicaMiller #JPMiller #RobinDreeke #FBI #JusticeForMica #CoerciveControl #TrueCrime #BehavioralAnalysis #SolidRockChurch #CrimePsych Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

What actually happens when thousands of biblical scholars descend on a single convention center? In this unusual and behind-the-scenes episode, Dru Johnson roams the floor of the Society of Biblical Literature Annual Meeting in Boston to ask a range of publishers and scholars—from Langham Publishing to Prairie College—what these conferences are really like. From the excitement of free books to the dread of reading papers aloud in monotone, this episode reveals both the inspiring and ridiculous sides of academic gatherings. Dr. Cindy Parker shares the joy of “seeing people from Australia and Israel and just Europe all over the place,” while also admitting, “there's a lot of ego in the room.” Megan Roberts, a professor in Canada, offers a more practical critique: “Just Google how many words is a 20-minute presentation. Then do it.” Meanwhile, publisher reps express their weariness with “sweaty” scholars who show up on the final day asking, “What here is free?” And Dr. Chris Skinner offers a thoughtful defense of the format: “The only way you can become better is by being around people who are already better than you.” This episode is honest, occasionally surprising, and always hilarious —your personal audio tour of biblical scholarship in the wild.

You are blue, and are surrounded by other blue people: swirling together in a dot, identical and indistinguishable. From somewhere above you hear the ticking of a clock, and suddenly find yourself and some of your fellows pulled upwards, sucked through a tube arcing high above... Intrigued? That is a description of one of Jess Enright's adventures in her mathematical models. This is an exciting new approach that researchers are using to invite people into the worlds of their models, both to communicate their research to the people outside of academia, but also for the researchers themselves to reflect on what aspects of reality these models actually do, and don't, describe. These adventures in model land build on the work of Erica Thompson in her book, Escape from Model Land: how mathematical models can lead us astray and what we can do about it. Any mathematical description of a process in the world around us is a mathematical model: whether it's describing the processes in our climate, the spread of a disease through a population or the movement of water across a landscape. They are incredibly useful and key to research in modern mathematics and science. But these mathematical models are, by necessity, simplifications of the real world. Erica's book inspired geoscientist Chris Skinner to use principles of role-playing games to explore and communicate mathematical models. And this approach was a perfect fit with Jess' experience building board games to communicate her research - we event get to play some in this podcast at the huge UK Games Expo in Birmingham earlier this year! Jess Enright, along with Emma Gort, in action at the UK Games Expo in Birmingham earlier in 2025. (Photo: Rachel Thomas) In this podcast we talk to Jess (a reader in the school of Computing Science at the University of Glasgow and member of the JUNIPER partnership of disease modellers from across the UK), Chris (an independent geoscientist and researcher and a visiting fellow at York St John University)and Erica (Associate Professor of Modelling for Decision Making at University College, London) about their explorations of these ideas. You can find out more information about the ideas discussed in the podcast here: Maths in a Minute: Mathematical model – a brief and an accessible introduction to mathematical models and where they are used. Escape from Model Land: how mathematical models can lead us astray and what we can do about it – Erica's book Adventures in Model Land– the framework, developed by Chris, Erica and Jess, together with Liz Lewis, Rolf Hut and Sam Illingworth, for exploring mathematical models using table-top role-play games You can find some of the adventures in model land and other games that Jess took to the UK Games Expo in Birmingham This podcast is part of our collaboration with JUNIPER, the Joint UNIversity Pandemic and Epidemic Response modelling consortium.
