On March 12, 2005, Gerald A. Miller, 44 and from Erin, was killed while attending a Living Church of God service held in a Sheraton Hotel conference room in Brookfield, Wisconsin. During the morning service a fellow congregant, 44-year-old Terry Ratzmann of New Berlin, entered and fired a 9mm handgun, discharging 22 rounds in under a minute. Miller was among seven people who died; the victims included the church’s pastor, the pastor’s 16-year-old son, and four other members. Four additional people were wounded in the attack.

Authorities report Ratzmann acted alone and then died of a self-inflicted gunshot at the scene. Investigators cited his anger over a sermon delivered two weeks earlier as the primary motive. There were no other suspects. Did anyone who attended that congregation or knew Gerald notice anything in the weeks before March 12 that could shed more light on what led to this attack?
