We’re in the top 5 for DV deaths. Our cops side with the men and told my friend if she’d just given her bf her phone he wouldn’t have tried to choke her. Same cop also told her if she was lying she would go to jail if she was lying. So here’s a 22 year old just beginning life and not knowing how anything works being intimidated by an officer to the point she’s too scared now to do anything bc it makes her believe she won’t ever be protected by LE. And guess what? She won’t be.
@@juanitaphelps7086 Good on you! Though it's not something that can happen without community action & support. More people need to do what you have done.
@@dee24680Write them and STFU!!!! Who the hell goes to AFRICA and tells them that you are going to kill yourself? She told them that she put a gun to her head and pulled the trigger and God intervened??? Who says that to the poorest people on earth??? Mica Francis. That is DISGUSTING!!! Mica was suicidal. You can watch the video and praise the BS!!! Educate yourself! She was INSANE! You would have to be to be with him. Plain and simple. I thought she didn’t HAVE A GUN???? Must have stolen it too!!!
Great interview!!! I have been following the Mica story since it broke, and I certainly hope more truths will come out, and those that are responsible will be held accountable!
@@JulezwithTrueCrimeReactions You are absolutely correct about Regina Ward lying. Just watching her gives me chills. I sat in the same chair where Will Folks and apparently Mica Miller sat when Regina Ward harmed me and my children worse than any other person I've ever met. My teenage daughter sat in that same chair the last day I saw Regina Ward. She kept my daughter and I there an hour, waiting in that room, for no reason. We were only there to pick up a piece of paper for her release which she claimed was already signed. While we were there, my teenage son called from home to say a man showed up claiming he was there to "fix the internet." My son, an avid gamer, let him in. I have no idea what was installed on the fuse box in my garage, and when I called HTC, the phone company, they had no record of a service call. Less than 2 weeks before, Regina Ward facilitated FALSE MEDICAL RECORDS at the same facility where Mica Miller was held against her will. I went there based on a recommendation for teen/family counseling. Regina Ward entered paperwork which only indicated I had been present at the place for an appointment (I wasn't even the patient), yet at a hearing she facilitated to be held in my absence, she presented this paperwork as if there was something wrong with me. I have never had an health issue, mental or otherwise. There's not a soul on the planet who would testify otherwise. Still, Regina Ward sold this as part of a mental health narrative. I did not know other false documents were created with my name on them until they were subpoenaed and entered into public record. These documents claim I suffer from depression. I can't express the terror in reading a fabricated document claiming I am "depressed," that no one will acknowledge or do anything to address. My first thought was why they believed they could get away with something like this. My next thought was why anyone would believe I would not dispute this false paperwork. My last thought was, what would they do to me and then produce paperwork claiming I suffered from "depression." It was all so choreographed, it was clear these protocols had been followed many times. How many times have spouse purchased a "crazy" narrative to discredit a spouse for whatever reason? How many times have men been accused of domestic violence for the same purposes? This is what Regina Ward and her ilk are selling at the Horry County Courthouse. As a result of Regina Ward's false paperwork and false testimony, an Order was produced with lightning speed which virtually banned me from all interaction with employees and business associates. The alleged rape in Ohio occurred only a month before this April 21, 2022 hearing. That Order allowed the other parties involved in family-owned businesses to escape forensic accounting. It allowed them to cover up PPP loan fraud, embezzlement, and ongoing allegations of sexual assault, wrongful termination, and retaliation against witnesses. When I reported to Regina Ward, my own attorney that female employees were reporting sexual harassment and minorities were reporting discrimination at three family-owned businesses in Ohio and South Carolina by my spouse and the third party who aided him in their court scheme to defraud, Ward colluded with attorney Heather Moore to harm me in ways I can hardly describe. At that time, in January 2022, I begged her to do something, anything, to prevent further harm to the young women who were begging me for help. Regina Ward would do nothing. She actually aided the opposing parties to harm me, these women and minorities even worse. Though she had hard evidence to disprove every false allegation against me, Regina Ward would not file a Return Motion to the Contempt Motion filed by Heather Moore February 2, 2022 which threatened me with a year in jail if I spoke to any of these women again. According to the lawsuit filed in federal court in Ohio on October 3, 2023, a young female server employed at Rodizio Grill in Columbus, Ohio was allegedly raped in the parking garage of the business by the manager she'd reported to another manager for ongoing, escalating sexual harassment. She was not the only employee who complained. The alleged rape occurred only weeks after Ward and Moore refused to help or even acknowledge the harm being done to women and minorities in our businesses. They refused to do anything after February 1, 2022 when these same parties terminated the employment of every female manager in our businesses in two states and anyone who spoke out against the harm being done. They did not fire the one female manager who was pregnant, simply stripped her of all the tools necessary to do her job so she would be forced to quit. I'm writing all this out here, because I don't understand why Fits appears to be buying what Regina Ward is selling and because Ward has destroyed lives. I told everyone close to me about the excitement I witnessed in Regina Ward's expression at her office on May 10th, 2022. The unspoken question I heard when she peered so closely into my eyes that last day was whether or not she had broken me, her own client. I knew in that instant it was some kind of power trip for her. I knew in that instant that suicide would be a "win" in Ward's column. I said this back in 2022. I wrote about this to the people I am closest to back in 2022. I expressed my fears that Regina Ward sold mental health narratives against her own clients, that she was paid to lose in court, and then she and her paralegal Ashley Roberts set about trying to drive the client crazy themselves primarily through tech manipulation that should chill every man, woman, and child to the bone. They will call my case a marital dispute. They will continue to push a mental health narrative. What else would they say? It's a narrative they can easily sell because there are crazy people, especially in Family Court. With me, that is simply not the case. I am mentally strong, and suicide is not in my DNA. If I die prematurely, I'll die fighting. If that's my fate, then someone must look closer at Regina Ward's client/victims. Of course, I would prefer this investigation happen now before my potential death and before she harms other victims. The people this has been done to are the best people you'll find, people who could not be bought and had no true skeletons as fodder for extortion and manipulation. These people deserve to have their names cleared. They deserve for everyone to know what they endured at the hands of the party who was supposed to protect them. I am believed because I have a strong support system, and because I have the evidence and the voice to prove it. MANY, MANY others have not been so lucky. I would argue there is no one better at coercive control than Regina Ward and her associates.
My name is Ginger Dunn, by the way. I posted above. There are many more like me, victims of South Carolina courts and of Regina Ward. Also, for anyone not from Horry County, Ward and Rankin have been friends for MANY years. They work together for support of the Bill, a Bill that will ultimately function as weapon against true victims.. and will create more attorney fees for lawyers.
When? People have been saying this for 2000 years. When is enough going to be enough for 'God' to 'bring justice' for those needing it? You just know with her dying breath, Mica was still begging for his help, right?
@user-tl1bk1ok3c Accepting money from an abuser in return for silence about his actions.... yeah, there's a word for that. Mica deserves much better from her family. She seems to have been surrounded by venal cowards. I hope the FBI step up and get this POS for any criminal activity around the church finances, at least.
@@nellym.6555 I agree it looks like everyone in Mica’s life let her down or failed her from the church,police and her “attorney “ This attorney puts off political vibes it wouldn’t surprise me to see her running for something in the near future
I'm pretty sure Regina said in the earlier video that there is another piece to getting #JusticeForMica Regina Ward seems like an extremely intelligent and respectful woman. In other words she has integrity. The details as to why things were settled the way they were are not public, so how can anyone condemn her for her representation. Please, don't be fooled by the subterfuge of the other parties. Regina obviously has the best interests of Mica, Mica's family, and community 1st and foremost.
Awesome LIAR!!! Mica KILLS HERSELF AND NOBODY WANTS HER TO BE LIABLE FOR WHAT SHE DID. Do you understand that there are cameras EVERYWHERE??? It DOES NOT TAKE 5-6 MONTHS TO INVESTIGATE. It came from the horses mouth….birds of a feather FLOCK TOGETHER AND SHE WAS MENTALLY UNSTABLE. Get OVER IT
@@JulezwithTrueCrimeReactionsI think I heard earlier that JP is still under investigation and depending on charges that might come up, that they got the settlement ahead of that, rather than wait and gain nothing. It will still take funds for them to make Mica's law pass. It's interesting for sure, but I think her lawyer has a better idea of what's happening and wouldn't steer them wrong. 🙏🏼
Regina - thank you and God bless you for this Law that you’re trying to pass! Even with a shelter that me and my son went to- not because I didn’t have family or my own home to be in but because I needed a “secretive” place to stay - he found me. This put all the other women in danger so I left and eventually was able to escape him because of his restraining order violated his arrest warrant that was in place for other domestic violence charges I had in place. I WAS LUCKY AND BLESSED to have escaped! I will go to our senator for state of Louisiana to help pass this law as it’s exactly how you said, “no marks, no arrest”! Praying it gets passed!!
Still having a hard time believing she did this to herself considering her faith and how excited she was about her mission work and helping the kids in Africa.
She had mental health issues. She was suicidal before this. Suicide often happens when people least expect it. And also when a person shows ucharacteristic joy.
To me that's why it's always so shocking to some. A person going to do this doesn't tell anyone cuz they don't wanna hear stop don't do it. I had a friend I knew she was sad but her husband had done the same thing 9 months earlier she did it the same way he did. But there was no talking to her that she had 3 small kids 2 girls and a lil boy she thought so much of yet she still did it. I said she was selfish about doing this with her kids but I've came to realize she was a very troubled soul. It always just looked like a cry for help no matter how many hours we all spent talking to her she did it. We thought she was playing fox again but ya never know.
Mica was not mentally ill.He put her in mental facilities,when she wouldn’t put up with his behavior.They released her quickly.If she needed to be there,she would have stayed much longer.She was very busy with many things at the church.She couldn’t have done that with mental illness,right? He’s the one with mental issues,said it during a sermon.
@@pamward7477 it is absolutely ludicrous to suggest that a person who suffers with mental illness can not “be very busy doing many things within a church” and that they “couldn’t be doing that with mental illness”. This absurd view is the exact Stigma against mental health that is the issue
Divorce attorneys should make it mandatory for the client to write out everything they went through, detail things that happened, tell ALL of the truth, then put it in an envelope seal it and tell the client this will never be opened ONLY if you pass away will this be opened. They really should keep files like that in their office somewhere
Yes! Nationwide!! This is more of a common problem than alot of people think. And like other's have said you won't truly understand unless you've been through it.
Thank you for your time and kindness in bringing us this interview that gives us more insight on Mica. Much love and respect❤ 💜💜Justice From e Mica💜💜 ✝️🙏🏻
Details we would like to have: true diagnosis provided by long term psychiatrists, details on the abuse so people will stop making stuff up addressed in order of occurrence.
The case with mica is over, they have permenantly denied a wrongful death suit so there will be no other information, details or anything concerning mica. They have not changed her manner of death so that investigation is over. There is no death investigation sadly.
Since Mica is no longer here to be able to substantiate or negate any diagnosis… I have to believe she was as sane as anyone! Btw, I will never believe that this beautiful young woman who was just beginning to feel and know her inner strength and courage took her own life without someone forcing it to an end!
Details on the abuse are provided in the document called Mica’s List. It goes through so many types of coercive control and notes what Mica experienced.
Mica was failed since the age of 10. JP was grooming her but her family continued to allow her to be JP's babysitter and continue to attend that church as a minor.
Since 2010- “the since age 10” was a typo made on a police report… it is said to have been reported incorrectly by the officer writing down what he thought he heard Mica say when he came to the scene.
The family was gullible. Jesus told us to be “wise as serpents but gentle as doves”, but too many Christian’s are so afraid to “judge” others, that they end up making themselves easy prey for the wolves out there. There MUST’VE been red flags about JP when Mica was young, but her family OVERLOOKED them because that’s what Christians do, because they’re afraid to judge others. Especially a pastor. Pastors should be scrutinized even more than lay people, because they’re in a position of authority. I’m not bashing Christians. I *AM* a Christian. That’s why it upsets me so much to see my fellow Christian’s being fooled and scammed so easily.
@@JulezwithTrueCrimeReactions if that is how you see it but I guarantee you 1,000% it wasn’t her decision she works for and represents Mica and Mica’s family
Christians, GOD grants divorce based on adultery. HE does not want any distraction between you and HIM, and infidelity is a huge distraction. It could pull you away from your Faith. Please don't forget that part of scripture. JESUS makes this very clear.
I love this woman!!! I love her passion, her willingness to speak the truth and call for justice and also to call out those who are not doing their job!!! I pray God will continue to guide her, use her and protect her!
Thank you for the light of Christ that this interview has brought forth. Your commitment to truth in Justice and Faith is healing to those of us who walked through this.
I want to say "thank you" Regina Ward for your diligence to really look into the need for help for those who are a victim to domestic violence. You have very valid points and our government needs to listen to this. God bless you for being a voice for those who are or have been trapped.
I can’t believe the derogatory comments on here about this attorney. She stated that what she wanted to use as leverage and what she wanted to put into the paperwork that Mica would not allow it. When you go into court the attorney cannot go ask for just anything even if it’s what the majority believes should be asked for if their client will not allow them to. The client has to agree with all that is being requested. I think she did her best with what Mica allowed her. Remember Mica did not want to lash out or be vengeful towards JP or the church, she wanted out quietly and she believed God would be the one to serve any punishment. That left this attorneys hands tied in multiple ways. I think some of you either are not listening or you need to better educate yourselves.
If a lawyer “is aware through his representation that the deceased client would not consent to the revelation of information Attorney learned during their representation of client, then the information should not be disclosed to anyone.” - Client confidentiality survives Death
What an Intelligent, HONEST, and Amazing ATTORNEY that the FRANCIS Family have. She represented Micah and Family with INTEGRITY. Honoring and took in consideration what Micah wanted. So I Believe She did the RIGHT Thing in coming to a Settlement. Civil Assualt, Micah was under paid She had 8 positions, never knew this. Thank You for All You've Done for Micahs Family. I Believe anyone who loved Micah Should SUPPORT her ATTORNEY and Family. And for all the people who Help protest, etc. REMEMBER YOU DID IT FOR MICAH, so don't get upset if you feel JUCTICE WAS NOT SERVED. It's not over yet. But more important is that JP and All involved in her death will ANSWER TO GOD. HIS WRATH IS WORSE THAN ANYTHING ON THIS EARTH. No Worries, We ALL will Stand before our God one day.
Thank you FitsNews for doing this interview. I found it very thought provoking and informative. Regina Ward, ESQ faced an enormous task in standing up for Mica, representing the family, yet taking into consideration the current laws and court issues going on in South Carolina, that would apply to this case. For some, it may seem as if justice was not served, because they settled. So many feel let down and hurt, especially those that experienced the same abuse that Mica endured. They feel connected and bond to Mica and her story. And for those that never received true justice in their own abuse situations, this is just as traumatic. For those people feeling this way, I express my deepest, heartfelt sadness. I am so very sorry that you did not get served properly and I am so very sorry that Mica left us so soon, and did not get the initial justice we were all hoping for. But there is hope in this new day. We can never change the past. We can’t bring beautiful, sweet, kind Mica back. Yet, we can go on living, making a difference for others, and try to change the world. It is in those activities, as hard as it is to see now, we truly achieve justice. Mica’s Law is an amazing thing. We all need to embrace this and do what we can to bring it to fruition. I plan to stand with the family of Mica and help get this law passed in South Carolina, and then maybe the rest of the states that have not adopted such laws. Please consider on joining me. PS. JP will be condemned and face judgement. It is inevitable. I hear the “between the line” words spoken by Regina Ward. We might not know what that is going to look like, but I feel it coming.
This interview really help me understand and sit back and pray for justice As a survivor my heart ♥️ breaks for all Jp alleged abused Unless you’ve been through this you don’t understand it. Abuse is physical and emotional
So they get her phone! BFD, The Francis family cannot sue JP for anything, civilly or criminally. The 135K paid them off! Proves where Mica's SC bio family loyalty is. The JP vs Francis (SC family) is over! And DONE! It’ll be up to the other victims now, and maybe her bio material family!
I was in 2 controlling relationships- both times my dad had to call the cops to get them to leave me alone. I couldn't imagine being trapped in a marriage like that. It forever changed me.
In my first abusive relationship, I called my Dad to come get me. My (now ex) husband thought my Dad would bring a 🔫 so he didn't show his face and let me leave peacefully. Very luckily for him, my mom had begged Dad not to take a gun and to pray about it before picking me up. Thanks to Mom, my Dad didn't have to take any action.
You are lucky to have a dad that would lay his life and well being on the line to defend you.@@suetown8198 Mine left me at my own defenses, the abuse of a woman he allowed in our family home for many years. When I would confront him and ask him why he never stopped it or why he didn't defend me or attempt to put an end to the awful lies she was spreading around about me.. he would defend her and twist it all back around on me as if it was my fault or blame me for things that my brothers might have done to set her off. I eventually had to walk away and disown him and become likely disinherited after he had told me once before that I might not even inherit anything. You are very fortunate in that regard. Some people wish with all their might they had a father that was there when they needed them.
@@suetown8198 thank God for protective dads and I'm also glad you're dad prayed about what to do. I know I'm an internet stranger but you mentioned your "first" abusive relationship which indictates to me that there's been others since then. I hope you are out of that pattern and have identified what you can do to make sure you identify these guys much sooner. That is not to blame you at all for any abuse you suffered. I say that as a person who was stuck in one bad relationship after another. It was my faith in God and seeking therapy that I was able to learn that what I was seeking (love) is ultimately found in Jesus Christ. And to wait much longer to be invested in someone until you have time to see their true colors. Blessings to you.
That's horrible that there are NO women's shelter in Horry County. Don't worry, they are often overfilled and women are most often put on a waiting list. IF Solid Rock shuts down, it'd be a great thing if a women's shelter were put there.
This is what I was told when I emailed Rankin's office: Ms. (name redacted), as has been stated in Senator Rankin’s posts, there is no such current bill. Any coersive control bill will need to be introduced in the next two-year Session, and that begins in January of 2025. Thank you for reaching out with your concern. Ms. Miller’s was indeed a tragic death. Marie Waller Executive Assistant to Senator Rankin
@@carrie2024 I understand how disheartening it can be. More people need to get on board. No one person can do this alone. Look at Mica! Education about what Coercive Control is among the wider community, then eventually those in positions of power have to listen and take action. Just keep pushing that rusty gate until it opens a little, then a little more. Good will eventually triumph.
They just don't have enough money to investigate and I could hear her sob on the phone. So something happened on her phone after that purchase. Something. Some kind of mean communication. That is why getting her phone was so important.😢😢
The fact that he was served that day is a huge deal! That would send him off the deep end for sure if he was already so out of control before seeing what was in the paperwork and what she was asking for.
Wasn’t JP supposed to have a mental evaluation done? I thought bcz of his children and all the mental issues he’s displayed… thought it was court ordered recently.
Man I wish she would have gotten her phone and evidence before they had court. That might of changed the course for wrongful death decision’s. I feel so bad for her family. These decisions must be so hard.
Only if the FBI drops the case which they obviously have not as they still have her Apple Watch & phone. This is only probate court, which decides assets & money. It's not Criminal Court. The only thing l care about is Criminal Court because will truly decide JP's fate.
@@Hisfaithful_Berean Absolutely❗Me too❗ Law is like a huge tree with many branches, strange fruit & not easy to navigate. & Just to throw more variations into the mix, every state is different & of course Federal Law ( the US government) is different from State Law ( local) Now that the proper authorities are involved, we have more hope than ever before that we will indeed, see Justice4Mica❗👍 God Bless🌟✨⭐💫
@@FrugalGal, There must be a bunch of dirtbags in that area. I stay clear of Myrtle Beach. I haven't been there in at least 12 years, and I live in SC. It's not easy to get to and has a Vegas vibe-not my cup of tea.
Bc her nipples were covered so it didn’t count as “inappropriate “ and it was sent to JP, therefore became her property. That’s what the law says, not me. I don’t agree with that at all. He violated her, period
Refreshing transparency! Great interview. I have also been deeply touched by the genuine concern regarding human decency . What a touching tribute to Mica to have Mica's Law passed. My best to you!
I have been following Mica’s story. I wanted to express what Micas attorney said, if the law was changed a few years ago Mica would have still been here. Police when they are called they want to see bruises, broken bones, etc. The abuse when someone is physically assaulting you, trying to push you from a flight of stairs, threatening you, it causes fear, unable to cope, forgetful, heart beating, etc., just think someone coming towards you with a car, weapon, bat, etc., actually use that force to put the fear of death in you…. they have not touched you but did just more then that to break you down.
Regina Ward let Mica down. Telling people to stop protesting was gross. Jp has too much info on the sheriff and probably even regina ward. Which is most likely why she folded so easily. Im glad Micas mama said KEEP GOING! Ill add DONT STOP PROTESTING JUNIORS CU..LT
Mica's family didn't protect her when she was a teenager and now they practically don't care about giving her justice. Mica's family was never there for Mica, they only care about money.Accepting money from an abuser in return for silence about his actions.... yeah, there's a word for that. Mica deserves much better from her family. She seems to have been surrounded by venal cowards. I hope the FBI step up and get this POS for any criminal activity around the church finances, at least.
There was a stipulation in the settlement that they make that announcement asking people to stop protesting. But micas mom made a post saying “keep doing what you’re doing”
Yup. Agree’d. Bigger things def coming for him or soo it seems..😊🎉 Can’t wait. I mean it is sad that this happened the way it did. Speaking of the court ordeal..😢 I feel for the victims && Mica’s family💜🤍💜🤍💜🤍💜🤍

@@nellym.6555please go watch CJ Crime Concepts. You’ll feel differently. This isn’t the whole story. I promise. Unless something changed within a couple hours.
I wish so badly that Mica would've reached out to anyone that could've told her things WILL get better! I'm curious if Mica has an impact on how Regina Ward will move forward on advising future clients. I imagine this has had a deep impact on her as well as Mica's family. I pray for you all!
Was that the same Sen Rankin in the SS oversight committee into the assassination attempt?? Wonderful how bipartisan the members are and how aggressive they can be when their own safety may be in jeopardy 🤔. Just wish they’d extend the same level of concern to the safety of their highly vulnerable constituents. At least get the bill out there and if changes need to be made, good! Avoidance helps nothing.
@@Not_your_Average_TherapistI also believe context is important. She may have not have had mental issues before him but she definitely did while she was with him. wouldn't be too hard to fall into depression with dealing with all of that does that make sense?
