Former Kentucky Sheriff Indicted For Murder Of County Judge

Clark County Sheriff

A former Kentucky sheriff accused of killing Letcher County District Judge Kevin Mullins is set to appear in court for an arraignment following a grand jury indictment on one count of murdering a public official. The accused, Shawn “Mickey” Stines, 43, has pleaded not guilty to the fatal shooting that shocked the small community.

Stines, who was the county sheriff at the time of the incident, has since resigned. The upcoming hearing will mark Stines’ first appearance inside the Letcher County courthouse, where the killing took place. Previous hearings were held elsewhere due to the courthouse's temporary closure.
