Pastor John-Paul Miller was not home when the FBI Evidence Response Team raided his South Carolina residence.
The FBI declined to specify what they were searching for, and spokesman Kevin Wheeler told USA Today the agency was conducting “court-authorized law enforcement activity.” Wheeler added that, due to the ongoing investigation, no further comment would be provided.
Russel Long, attorney for Pastor Miller, criticized the FBI’s actions, calling them a “fishing expedition.” He stated, “There was no affidavit attached to the search warrant, so I have no idea what it’s in relation to.” Throughout the day, members of the FBI’s Evidence Response Team entered and exited the home, carrying paper bags and other items.
Days before the raid, Pastor Miller filed documents with the South Carolina Secretary of State to incorporate a new religious organization, Living Water Church at Market Common. The filing describes the nonprofit as serving religious, educational, charitable, and literary purposes, listing Miller’s Myrtle Beach residence as the business address. Miller also formally updated the address of his existing church, Solid Rock Ministries, to its current location.
