    Mica Miller & JP Miller: The Police Calls and Warning Signs Before Her Death | Troubling Truths Episode 13

    Mica Miller’s death became national news, but the story didn’t begin on April 27, 2024. Long before that day, Mica was trying to leave her marriage to pastor JP Miller, talking to family and friends, seeking mental health treatment, and repeatedly reaching out to law enforcement. In Part One of our deep dive into the Mica Miller case, Sheri, Benna and Pauline go back to the beginning. We look at who Mica was before she became a headline, how JP Miller came into her life, their relationship and marriage, life inside Solid Rock Church, Mica’s documented mental health history, and the growing problems that eventually led her to seek separation. We also walk through the police paper trail leading up to her death, including repeated calls involving alleged tracking devices, vehicle issues, privacy concerns and other incidents Mica reported while trying to separate herself from JP. Throughout the episode, you’ll hear Mica in her own words along with audio and interviews from people who knew her. We separate documented facts from allegations and ask a difficult question: when someone has a documented mental health history, can that change the way police, family, doctors and everyone around them interpret what they are trying to say? This episode takes us right up to the night before April 27. In Part Two, we’ll examine Mica’s final day minute by minute, the official investigation into her death, JP Miller’s public response, what former Solid Rock members began saying afterward, and the federal criminal case that would eventually follow.

    Who Killed Caroline Lake? Inside the Spartanburg Cold Case with Andy Fancher Troubling Truths | Episode 12

    Who killed Caroline Lake? In Episode 12 of Troubling Truths, investigative journalist Andy Fancher with FITSNews joins Sheri, Benna and Pauline to lead an in-depth discussion about this nearly forgotten Spartanburg County cold case.Caroline was only 20 years old when she disappeared from Duncan, South Carolina, in August of 1990. More than two years later, rabbit hunters discovered her skeletal remains in a wooded area off Bradley Drive in Wellford. More than three decades have passed, and no one has ever been charged with her murder.Throughout the episode, Andy walks us through the case from beginning to end. He lays out Caroline’s timeline, explains how the case first came onto his radar and shares what he has learned from people who remember Caroline and the investigation.Andy also examines the missing links and unanswered questions surrounding Caroline’s disappearance, the discovery of her remains and the way the original investigation was handled. He discusses the rumors that were circulating before Caroline was found and why information from multiple independent sources convinced him that this case deserved another look.What happened after Caroline left her grandparents’ home? What happened to her white Toyota Corolla? Did people in the community already know she had been killed? Was important information overlooked? And could evidence from the case still provide answers through modern forensic testing?This episode brings Caroline’s name back into the public eye and asks the question that has gone unanswered since 1990: Who killed Caroline Lake?If you have information about Caroline’s case, or another case you believe deserves investigation, contact Andy Fancher Social media: @RealAndyFancher Email: andy@fitsnews.com Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/troubling-truths-podcast--7257062/support. © 2026 Proper Reckoning Media.
