A Kentucky sheriff has been arrested after fatally shooting a judge in his chambers, police say.
District Judge Kevin Mullins died at the scene after being shot multiple times in the Letcher County Courthouse, Kentucky State Police said.
Letcher County Sheriff Shawn Stines, 43, has been charged with one count of first-degree murder.
The shooting happened on Thursday after an argument inside the court, police said, but they have not yet revealed a motive.
Well, I can’t blame him if she is underage. If that is the case, sheriff did his duty as a father and an officer of the law in order to uphold the law and do right by his kid, so long as the judge did violate the sheriff’s child.
Woodchipper feet-first for the lot of them, judicial firearm use is too kind.
“Judge, jury, and executioner” isn’t a compliment.
Out of all people you’d expect a sheriff to be able to navigate the legal system to get the guy locked up without landing in prison himself. Provided this is real, obviously.
Seriously, just pull them over and shoot them for going for a gun. It’s honestly harder for a cop to get in trouble for shooting someone.
I can respect the commitment to the bit that it must have taken to delete criticalthinking.ini entirely from your brain, but I can’t bring myself to respect even an iota of what it’s turned you into. You broke yourself, dude.

I see what you’re saying but I do think it’s important to mention his duty as a father is to be there for his kid and extrajudicial “justice” means this father will be in jail causing further trauma for his kid and severely restrict his ability to be a father.
