Wayne Wawa Murder Defendant Being Evaluated: DA Says

RADNOR, PA — A 37-year-old Devon man accused of the March 2018 fatal slaying of his ex-wife during a custody exchange is undergoing psychological evaluations, prosecutors said Wednesday.

Brian T. Kennedy is accused of fatally shooting Stephanie Miller on March 28, 2018 at the Wawa on Old Sugartown and Morris roads in the Wayne section of Radnor Township.

Miller, 37, an occupational therapist, died of a gunshot wound to the torso, according to medical authorities.

Kennedy, meanwhile, is in the George Hill Correctional Facility in Glen Mills awaiting disposition of his case.

A status hearing has been scheduled on Sept. 7 in Delaware County Court, Media.

Kennedy has undergone an evaluation by a defense expert witness, and is awaiting an evaluation by a prosecution expert, according to Margie McAboy, director of policy and public engagement for the Delaware County district attorney’s office.

Friends described Miller in a GoFundMe page as “a proud occupational therapist; helping the elderly as well as children with special needs. Our loss cannot be stated in words, but she will be remembered for the lives she changed for the better.”

According to court records:

• Kennedy is accused of killing Miller with an AR-15-style rifle about 8:20 p.m. at the Wawa. Authorities said Kennedy bought the rifle about two weeks before the shooting.
• Miller went to Wawa to meet Kennedy to pick up her 6-year-old son when she was fatally shot. The two were divorced in 2013 and had a custody agreement.

• The security camera at the Wawa has images of Kennedy walking in the convenience store with the AR-15.
• Radnor Township police arrested Kennedy about two hours later in Thornbury Park.
