Two days after serving divorce papers to her husband, Mica Miller was found dead at Lumber River State Park on April 27, 2024. Her death was ruled a suicide, but questions about the circumstances surrounding her death remain. According to her best friend, Bruna Pabon, Mica had confided in her that she feared her husband, John-Paul Miller, would kill her and make it look like she had taken her own life. Bruna says Mica made one thing clear: she wanted to live.
In Part 1 of this special two-part interview, Criminally Obsessed investigative reporter Anne Emerson sits down with Bruna, one of Mica’s closest friends, to hear her firsthand account of their friendship and the deeply personal conversations they shared before Mica’s death.

Next week, in Part 2: Bruna recounts learning that Mica had died, revisits the events of Mica’s final day, and shares her perspective on the unanswered questions surrounding her death.
