Miller was born in 1930 and lived in Stamford, Connecticut. He had a documented history of mental illness and had been in and out of hospital.
Between 1967 and 1971 five women were strangled in the city. He was arrested on March 17, 1972.
The five women were Rose Ellen Pazda, twenty-nine; Donna Roberts, twenty-two; Gloria Conn, twenty-one; Gail Thompson, nineteen; and Alma Henry, thirty-four.
At trial in 1973 he was found not guilty by reason of insanity on the murder counts and was committed to the custody of the state Commissioner of Mental Health. There is therefore no conviction here, and the five killings were never established by a verdict of guilt.
The account of what he did comes from the psychiatric evidence and the commitment record rather than from a trial of the facts.
He belongs with the group in this archive held on findings no jury tested as guilt: Eddie Lee Mosley, Lester Harrison, Christian Magee, Charles Floyd. In each of them a man was removed from society for a long period and in none of them was there a conviction to review.
Nothing accessible records what became of him.
