A report by the North Carolina Medical Examiner’s Office for Mica Miller says that the Myrtle Beach woman died from a self-inflicted gunshot wound to the head. The report said that “there was no concern for foul play.” The report also indicated that there was no sign of a physical struggle where bullet casings were recovered at the scene. The report said that the 30-year-old used a 9mm handgun that she purchased from a Myrtle Beach pawn shop to kill herself at Lumber River State Park in Lumberton, North Carolina, on April 27, 2024. Miller’s body was found submerged in the river by trees about 100 feet from the bullet casings by a kayaker, who notified police, the report said. Police also were given a black bag with Miller’s ID and money that was found by a person on the bank of the river. The death of Miller, who was married to John-Paul Miller, pastor of Solid Rock Church in Market Common in Myrtle Beach at the time, has received national attention and has been reviewed and analyzed by family, friends and online. During the investigation of Mica Miller’s death, it was revealed that Miller and her estranged husband had been separated and were involved in the legal system. Miller suffered from mental health issues and alluded to abuse in her marriage, which she documented on her Facebook page and in documents. John-Paul Miller has denied that he has abused his wife. Her death has been the basis for #justiceforMica to bring awareness to domestic violence. Her family also is in a legal battle with John-Paul Miller over her belongings. The Robeson County Sheriff’s Department ruled Mica Miller’s death a suicide. According to a Facebook post Tuesday, May 7, 2024, the North Carolina law enforcement agency said the decision was based on surveillance footage, interviews, physical evidence and the examination of the North Carolina Medical Examiner’s Office. The post said Robeson County E911 Communications Center received a 911 call from a female, who was later identified as Mica Miller, who asked the dispatcher if her phone could be located because she was going to kill herself and wanted her family to be able to find her body. The medical examiner’s report said that family members had tried to call and text Miller on the day of her death without success. Investigators located a gun case in the passenger seat of the vehicle and a box of ammunition in the center console. Investigators also found a receipt for the handgun from a pawn shop and a receipt from a convenience store in the vehicle. Both receipts were dated for same day of Miller’s death, April 27, 2024.
