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.

Remastered from True Sunlight Podcast reporting by Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell, this episode covers Miller's 1999 conviction for hitting a woman with his truck twice, and the 2019 pardon hearing where JP minimized the assault and misrepresented his own family and church. JP's first divorce, from wife Alison Williams in 2015, followed his affair with Mica Francis Miller becoming public. Alison's affidavit describes JP's history of alleged misconduct with teenage girls at Solid Rock Church, restricted overnight visitation with his own daughter, and an unsettling detail from Alison's own account: the husband of a woman linked to JP romantically died in a drowning accident shortly after confronting JP.
