Within days, her death was ruled a suicide — a ruling that would have ended the story for most true crime journalists. We aren't most true crime journalists. And Mica's story is anything but typical. COERCED: The Devotion & Death of Mica Francis Miller is a LUNASHARK® DROP-FEED from the award-winning team behind the Murdaugh Murders Podcast — investigative journalists Mandy Matney, Liz Farrell and Beth Braden — along with producers Kate Thomas, Grace Hills and David Moses.

Charlotte didn't know it yet, but she would spend the next 7 years watching her closest friend try to survive that marriage. This episode is remastered from our original reporting on the True Sunlight Podcast — where Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell first sat down with Charlotte to trace the full scope of Mica's story. Charlotte describes a marriage built on a foundation she didn't understand until much later: a secret ceremony timed around a surgery and a bipolar diagnosis that followed a bad reaction to anesthesia. She remembers how beloved Mica was at Solid Rock Church, involved in nearly every ministry. And the night in November 2022 when Mica fled for a few days, and JP responded by texting Charlotte directly, threatening to show up \"armed and ready.\" But more than that, Charlotte wants people to remember who Mica actually was: the friend who apologized even when she’d done nothing wrong, some who always asked how she could honor God a little better, and a beautiful friend to everyone she met.
