Mica Miller's pastor husband groomed her for years before they wed and committed her to hospital so he could steal her car, shocking court documents claim in wake of her suicide claim

Mica Miller's pastor husband groomed her for years before they wed and had her committed to hospital to steal her car, court documents uncovered in the wake of her suicide claim.

The bombshell allegations emerged after Miller, 30, died by suicide on April 27.

She was found dead with a self-inflicted gunshot wound at Lumber River State Park in North Carolina, days after serving her husband John Paul Miller, 44, with divorce papers.

Now a police report over the alleged auto theft of her silver Honda Accord shows that their marital problems stretched back even further.

'When the complainant was discharged from the hospital, hospital staff informed her that her husband picked up her purse and her keys,' the report from February 2023 states.

'The complainant believed that her husband fraudulently initiated her involuntary hospitalization and "stole" her care while she was in the hospital.'

Miller met with the cops at Coastal Grand Mall and told them she and her husband had been separated since January of that year.

'The complainant stated that she has known her husband since she was ten-years-old and that he "groomed" her while she worked for him at Solid Rock Church until they were married,' the report adds.

When investigators contacted her husband, he told them that his wife had been suffering from a 'reckless episode' due to poor mental health.

He said the incidents were annual crises which would flare up around Christmas and result in Miller spending excessively. 

The former pastor told the officer he had seized the vehicle to prevent it being sold and would not give it back for a month to allow the episode to pass.

As both parties stated they were legally married, the investigator had to consider the car as marital property and therefore 'could not establish a criminal offense'.

Miller's suicide came weeks after she came out publicly to talk about abuse within her marriage.

Speaking in a video on Facebook on March 22 Mica said: 'You don't have to stay in an abusive relationship.

'Whether that's sexual, whether that's somebody forcing you to take illegal drugs or alcohol abuse, or physical abuse, psychological abuse, making you think that this is all your fault or that you're a bad mom or a bad husband or you're not giving it your all when you know you are.

'God hates divorce, but why? According to everybody that I've asked and the scriptures I've seen it's because it hurts people. But does abuse hurt people. How do you think God feels about that?'

In a separate police report filed by Miller's husband, he accused his wife of 'defamation' over the video and claimed she and her family were harassing him.

However, officers found 'no evidence' of this and advised him to stop looking at Miller's page.

In the days after her death, Miller's friends and family held a rally calling for 'justice for Mica' outside the church where her husband previously worked.

It has since emerged that her estranged-husband was pursuing at least one other woman whilst still legally married.

A waitress named Christiana revealed that he had exchanged flirty messages with her and even appeared to make light of his wife's suicide.

A waitress told how the pastor had been sending her flirty messages, including calling her 'super hot' and asking for 'bikini pics' while still married

'I asked him if anything was new, and he more or less said yes, lots new, LOL, I'll text later,' she told NewsNation's Elizabeth Vargas, confirming LOL stands for 'laugh out loud'.

The waitress explained she had engaged with the pastor in a bid to expose his behavior after becoming 'suspicious' he might be married.

Police have now released images and audio of Miller in the lead up to her death amid conjecture about the circumstances.

The speculation was partly fueled by a bizarre video of Miller's husband casually informing his congregants of her suicide at the end of a service.

However, evidence released by Robeson County Sheriff's Office as part of their investigation conclusively shows Miller plotting to end her life.
