Inside Kentucky’s Most Shocking Courthouse Killing

A small Kentucky courthouse became the scene of a shocking execution-style killing when Letcher County Sheriff Shawn “Mickey” Stines was caught on camera walking into a judge’s chambers and gunning down Circuit Judge Kevin Mullins. The motive remains clouded in mystery, with prosecutors pointing to an intentional killing while Stines now claims he was mentally incapacitated and unable to understand what he was doing when he pulled the trigger. Behind closed courtroom doors, investigators are still trying to piece together what could have driven a longtime sheriff to allegedly murder a judge he once worked alongside.
