Hidden Killers With Tony Brueski | True Crime News & Commentary

Mica Miller documented what was happening to her. She wrote it in journals. She told it to police. She filed for divorce. And the state of South Carolina didn't have a single law that recognized what she described.
Her family compiled the journal entries after Mica's death on April 27, 2024. The allegations against her husband, pastor John-Paul "JP" Miller, include forced medication he allegedly controlled, forced injections, and sleep deprivation. Mica was thirty years old. She'd served JP with divorce papers two days before she died. Her death was ruled a suicide.
The federal government charged JP with cyberstalking and making false statements to investigators—the tools they had because South Carolina had nothing. He has pleaded not guilty. The trial is set for October 2026. Mica's Law has been introduced four times. It has failed four times. The law still doesn't exist.

Five minutes separated Caleb Flynn’s 911 call from the arrival of the first Tipp City police officer at the home where Ashley Flynn was found dead. Day 1 testimony established that early timeline — and revealed that the officer’s first conversation with Caleb was not captured on body camera.
After jurors reviewed the scene, prosecutors called Beth Hull, director of the Miami County Communication Center, as their first witness. Hull testified that she retrieved the records and audio connected to the February 16, 2026 emergency call. According to Hull, the call came in at approximately 2:31 a.m. Prosecutors then played Caleb Flynn’s 911 call requesting help for the jury.
Sgt. Corey Rismiller of the Tipp City Police Department testified that he arrived at approximately 2:36 a.m. He said he searched the home for anyone else and found no other people inside. Rismiller testified that he then entered the bedroom, where Ashley Flynn had significant trauma around her head and was deceased.
Rismiller said he secured the scene, notified detectives of Ashley’s death, and allowed EMS personnel to enter. He also testified that he never treated Caleb Flynn as a suspect during those initial moments.
Cross-examination focused heavily on what happened before Rismiller’s body camera began recording. He testified that the camera did not activate automatically and that he manually turned it on after realizing it was off. That means his first conversation with Caleb was not recorded.
Rismiller also acknowledged that he had previously worked one homicide in Tipp City, back in the early 2000s.
Caleb has pleaded not guilty. Prosecutors allege he killed Ashley and staged the home to resemble a burglary. The defense says Ashley was killed during a real home invasion and investigators later focused on Caleb too quickly.

Opening statements in the Caleb Flynn murder trial gave jurors two very different ways to look at the death of Ashley Flynn — and the defense made one admission immediately: Caleb had an affair, and he lied about it.
Miami County Prosecuting Attorney Paul Watkins delivered the prosecution’s opening statement as the state began laying out its case against Caleb Flynn, 40, who has pleaded not guilty to 11 counts, including aggravated murder, in the February 16, 2026 death of his wife, Ashley Flynn, 37. Prosecutors allege Caleb staged the couple’s Tipp City home to make Ashley’s death appear to be the result of a home-invasion burglary.
Defense attorney Emily Smith presented the competing version. The defense maintains that Ashley was killed during an actual home invasion and that investigators rushed to judgment when they focused on Caleb.
But Smith did not try to present Caleb as a flawless husband. She acknowledged to jurors that he had an affair and lied about it, then drew a very deliberate line between marital betrayal and murder: “A man can fail as a husband without being a murderer.”

That sentence tells you exactly where one of the early battles in this trial is going to be fought. The prosecution can present evidence surrounding Caleb’s marriage and conduct, but the state still has to prove the criminal charges beyond a reasonable doubt. The defense is already telling jurors not to substitute their judgment of Caleb as a husband for their judgment of the evidence.
Judge Jeannine Pratt also instructed the jury before the case moved forward, reminding jurors of the legal framework that governs everything they are about to hear.
Now both sides have given jurors their roadmap. The evidence has to determine which one survives contact with the courtroom.

Federal cases are won by the government roughly ninety percent of the time. JP Miller's defense team faces those odds with a case file that includes GPS trackers, a private investigator, over fifty daily contacts, tire deflation devices purchased online, and an intimate image allegedly posted without consent. The alleged campaign ran nearly two years. The evidence is digital, documented, and difficult to reinterpret.
Miller faces one count of cyberstalking and one count of making false statements. He was indicted in December 2025 and has pleaded not guilty. Prosecutors allege the harassment ran from November 2022 through Mica Miller's death in April 2024. The false statements charge stems from what prosecutors say Miller told agents about hiring a PI to keep Mica from buying firearms. Miller denies the allegations and has not been charged in Mica's death. She was thirty. She filed for divorce two days before she died. Her death was ruled a suicide. Trial is October 2026.
The defense path is narrow. Turn the surveillance into protection. Use Mica's documented mental health struggles to create reasonable doubt about intent. Attack the government's characterization of the PI hire. And do all of it in front of a jury pool saturated with the Netflix documentary and years of media coverage.
Defense attorney and former prosecutor Eric Faddis joins Tony to map the defense strategy and name its weakest point. The false statements count — the cover-up — may be the charge that gives the defense the least room to move.

The federal indictment names JP Miller. It does not name the people around him who allegedly helped. But that doesn't mean they're safe. Court filings describe church members and associates who allegedly executed physical tasks in the harassment of Mica Miller — the kind of acts that leave evidence law enforcement can trace.
Miller was indicted in December 2025 on charges of cyberstalking and making false statements to federal investigators. The alleged conduct ran from November 2022 until Mica's death in April 2024 and includes tracking devices on her vehicle, more than fifty contacts in a day, interference with her finances, tire damage, and an intimate image posted online. Miller has pleaded not guilty and denies the allegations. He has not been charged in Mica's death, which was ruled a suicide. She was thirty. She filed for divorce two days before she died. Trial is October 2026.
South Carolina has no coercive control law. That gap limits what the state can pursue against the alleged psychological torment. But the physical acts described in the filings — the tracking, the following, the damage — carry separate legal risk for anyone who allegedly carried them out. The insulation that allegedly protected Miller may not protect his helpers.
Defense attorney and former prosecutor Eric Faddis joins Tony to break down the legal math. Why the person who physically placed a device may face more direct exposure than the person who allegedly ordered it. How investigators squeeze a crumbling inner circle. And what the first phone call to a defense attorney sounds like when you're the one who did someone else's dirty work.
