This Friday, Myrtle Beach found itself buzzing with whispers and worries as FBI agents swarmed the home of John Paul Miller, a former pastor at Solid Rock Church. Located in the peaceful Market Common area, Miller’s place on Azalea Lakes Boulevard became the center of attention—such a dramatic turn that folks in the neighborhood could hardly help but peek out their windows to see what was going on.
Bystanders reported that the federal officers had been present since morning, investigating what they described as a court-authorized activity. However, their specific reasons for being there remain shrouded in mystery. It was noted that Miller wasn’t home during the search—adding an extra layer of intrigue to the situation.
At around 3:45 PM, agents were still combing through the residence. Many neighbors mentioned hearing that Miller had received a sealed search warrant earlier that morning, leading to a flurry of speculation among the community. While the police on the scene kept tight-lipped about the investigation, their presence—it included personnel from the Horry County Sheriff’s Office, there strictly to assist the FBI—made it clear that something serious was unfolding.
As news spread, locals took to social media to share their thoughts and observations, and understandably so! For many, the idea that a former pastor might be wrapped up in trouble is both shocking and alarming. It’s been a tough few months for Miller after the tragic passing of his wife, Mica, who died earlier this year. Many residents shared their concerns about her untimely death, which has been the subject of intense discussion both online and in the community.
In an unexpected twist, protesters wearing “Justice for Mica” T-shirts were also spotted outside of Miller’s home, diligently handing out small purple rubber ducks they referred to as “Mica ducks”. This group, along with others, has been making their voices heard this summer outside Solid Rock Church, holding signs and chanting for justice in Mica’s name. It’s clear that her tragic passing has struck a chord within this community.
Rumors are swirling that Miller’s actions may have played a role in Mica’s death—a claim that is as sensitive as it is serious. After she was found with a gunshot wound in a North Carolina park back in April, many began piecing together a narrative that painted Miller in a troubling light, leading some folks to believe he may have been directly responsible for her tragic fate. It’s worth noting, though, that the Robeson County Sheriff’s Department has maintained that he had an alibi for the day she died.
The story of Mica Miller and recent events have captivated Myrtle Beach to the extent that the hashtag #JusticeForMica has gained traction on platforms like social media. It’s become a rallying cry for those seeking more answers and justice, and it’s heart-wrenching to see how this situation has truly affected many lives in our close-knit community.
As the investigation unfolds, it’s clear that many questions remain unanswered. The FBI, while confirming that they are conducting a significant law enforcement activity, hasn’t shared specifics, leaving many residents feeling a mixture of confusion and concern.
We’ll be keeping an eye on this situation as it develops. In the meantime, it’s a sobering reminder of how intertwined our community lives can be. Folks here in Myrtle Beach are resilient; let’s hope for clarity and comfort for all involved.
