The three-part documentary explores the circumstances surrounding Mica's death and the criminal case against her husband, Pastor John Paul 'JP' Miller.

Mica Miller was 30 when she died from a self-inflicted gunshot wound at North Carolina’s Lumber River State Park on April 27, 2024. Her death was officially ruled a suicide.

Mica Miller's Life Before Her Death

The couple divorced in 2016 when JP's then-wife, Alison Williams, discovered Mica and JP in a compromising position. Mica later married JP Miller in 2017. Their marriage ended in divorce proceedings shortly before her death in April 2024.

Mica's family has long alleged that she endured years of coercive control, harassment, and abuse during her marriage to JP Miller. Those allegations form the basis of Netflix’s new documentary, which includes interviews with relatives, friends, and former church members.

JP Miller has denied wrongdoing.

Allegations of Coercive Control

Mica did not have children from either of her two marriages. However, she maintained close relationships with JP's children from his former marriage to Alison.

Before she got married to JP, she worked as a nanny for Alison and JP's kids. In her affidavit, Alison said that Mica did not have a close relationship with her mother and that she took Mica under her wing after her father passed away.
