Watched the entire thing – those pics of Joy Miller I had never seen before. Puts a new spin on her life. I’d be curious to learn more about her. Thanks John!
Yes, thanks.
All I know is that she was married to a Beverly Hills attorney at one point, and had two daughters with him. The girls were both early 20s when Joy was killed. I heard that Joy was quite the socialite before she got breast cancer and turned to drugs. I also read somewhere that she drove her cute white Benz around town delivering cocaine to her society friends. Susan Launius speaks kindly of her in the court testimony. She is the only person that Susan remembers besides her husband at the house, so Joy must have made an impression. She remembered her even with all that memory loss from the attack/brain damage.
A reader sent me a message about how his mother used to work for a shady showbiz guy, society type and dealer, and that Joy Miller would sometimes come either to his house and office to drop off things for him. She was obviously delivering or picking up drugs or money, but she was referred to as the guy’s “Secretary”. The kid was about 15 at the time (late 70s) and did not put the name with the face until just recently when he started reading about Wonderland… small world! I believe this showbiz guy was the dude with the Polish name mentioned in the early news articles about the murders.
