I wish everyone would call this what it is, NARCISSISTIC ABUSE!

Mica's family WE ARE WITH YOU! And I believe GOD IS WITH YOU! Don't let up one second!

[a.humphries]

Wow, an adult trying to drive a wedge between a child and their family is the definition of a groomer predator. That is grooming!! That is a dangerous person!

[LexieRaye]

I don't care if that guy was supposedly in another state; he's clearly a danger to society.

[annagarza]

Why would she file for DIVORCE if she was going to kill herself. ??? That just does not make any sense

[bpassionfashion]

NARCISSISTIC/SOCIOPATHIC ABUSE!!! The world needs to wake up to the fact that this type of abuse is more dangerous and damaging than punching someone and then breaking up. HE DROVE her to the edge !

How could a Police Department NOT perform Autopsy on a Murder Case ? . . What sort of Police Dept is this ? . . The FBI needs to investigate the Lumberton NC Police Dept!

[heytam]

So Mica had physical recent injuries on her when she passed?
They weren’t there in any of the pics from what I could see, her dad is absolutely thinking foul play from what I am hearing.

[froandcara]

Wow. Narcissists- those who have dealt with them can spot them 😢

[wqvln]

How about blaming the leadership of her church for not protecting her, and letting this guy be a " pastor" even though he had no biblical qualifications !

[ladybugshyness]

I’m a devout Christian who’s a daughter of an abuser who served in the Marines (who’s deceased). Her husband is 100% accountable.

Never judge a book by its cover. Abusers come from all walks of life. He may have been a pastor. But outside of the church, he was a monster. It is what it is

[nomnom]

I saw a video where he was being asked by Mica to leave her, he replied by saying I will post your pictures 😢, he must blackmailed her too

[carlf.]

He followed her or kidnapped her. She got the weapon for her own protection not to use against herself. She was building a case against him with evidence it'd make no sense to quit at that point. They need to seize all his digital devices asap.

Justice for Mica? Investigate the husband.

[MightyoNe-MiT]

Wtf is really going on here ?

The cops have to be friends of JP.

[carolynmorris]

It's the most dangerous when leaving the abuser, because they are losing power and control.

[chartmann]

Wow… I didn’t know that about the bruises ect on her body!!???

[mizteek]

Great to see the family speaking up and letting people know what JP was really like with Mica.

[donv]

Her father and sister is showing a lot of strength. I would still be in tears in their position

[easternkiwiz]

Thank you to Mica's family for sharing with us what was clearly an abusive marriage. This is NO way for any husband to treat their wife, let alone a so called "man of the cloth".
May you find justice for Mica as her story resonates around the world. Much love and prayers from New Zealand 🙏
