Calhoun County Man Sentenced To Two Life Terms
WEST VIRGINIA....
Kirk Miller from Calhoun County has been sentenced to two life terms in prison after pleading guilty to two first degree murder charges in the April 14, 2009 shooting deaths of Michael and Julie Flanagan. Miller told police he had been delivering marijuana to the Flanagans when he got into a fight with them at their home on Left Fork Road near Millstone in Calhoun County because he hadn't been paid. Prosecutors say Miller owned a shotgun Flanagan wanted to buy. Flanagan already owed Miller money so Miller decided if Flanagan told him he would buy the gun, he would shoot him. Flanagan offered to buy the shotgun, and Miller shot him three times. When Flanagan's wife Julie asked what was going on, Miller shot her twice.
