Current Sherriff Murders Judge in the Courthouse Chambers * Kentucky

The case of a US sheriff accused of fatally shooting a judge in his courthouse chambers has made international headlines.

A motive for the alleged murder of Judge Kevin Mullins remains unclear.

District Judge Kevin Mullins and Sheriff Shawn "Mickey" Stines had reportedly been arguing at the Letcher County courthouse in Whitesburg, Kentucky, shortly before shots rang out on the second floor at 2:55pm.

Nobody seems to know what they were arguing about.

Patty Wood said she had been close friends with him and his family for years.

"You couldn't find a better person on the face of the earth than Mickey Stines," she said.

"I don't know what happened.

"I know Mickey's character and I know there had to be something that did it.

"I just cannot believe that he just went in and shot him for no reason."
