McMillian was a mayoral candidate in the town of Clarksdale. His body was located Wednesday morning in Coahoma County.
Chris Talley was the other driver injured when the two cars collided. He was also taken to the hospital, where he said deputies gave him shocking information about the accident.
"The other driver of the vehicle that hit me told a deputy on scene that he had murdered somebody the night before and he had dumped the body beside a lake," Talley said.
