Kincaid agreed to talk with News Center 7’s Kate Bartley in reaction to the news that an arrest had been made in the killing of her 29-year-old boyfriend. Miller was found by a passer-by in the middle of the 2500 block of Guthrie Road on June 16. He had been shot twice in the head and several other times elsewhere on his body, police and the Montgomery County Coroner’s Office said.
Michael Harwell, 42, was arrested Monday morning outside a business in Huber Heights by the Dayton Southern Ohio Fugitive Apprehension Strike Team. They were acting on an arrest warrant issued Nov. 16 and made the arrest based on information that indicated Harwell would be at a business on Taylorsville Road in Huber Heights.
Harwell is in the Montgomery County Jail on charges of murder, attempted murder, kidnapping, felonious assault and having a weapon as a felon, according to jail records. Harwell has an initial appearance in Montgomery County Common Pleas Court scheduled for Nov. 27.
Kincaid, who said she has known Miller since she was 16, said that Gavin, the son they had together, “will never have a father. His [Miller’s] other child will never have a father.”
She said she didn’t think she could move on without Miller. “It was too hard because he was my backbone for a lot of years. I grew up with him, became the person I am with him. He did the best he could with our son.”
Kincaid said she thought she would feel better, feel at ease, when authorities caught the person believed responsible for Miller’s death.
“I just want to be able to see his face,” she said. “I thought it would be better just to see his face, but honestly, it made me feel a lot worse just to see him.”
About Harwell, Kincaid said, “only he knows what happened that night or why it happened and now another life is going to be lost. More families are going to be hurt and I’m just reliving the pain all over again.”
