A chilling surveillance video has emerged, capturing the horrifying moment when a Kentucky sheriff pointed his gun at a judge's head and fatally shot him. The footage unveils a tragic and puzzling turn of events between two once-close acquaintances.
The newly released surveillance footage has sent shockwaves through the small Kentucky town where a sheriff's alleged murder of a local judge has left a community reeling. The video, obtained by the media, provides a chilling glimpse into the fatal encounter between Letcher County Sheriff Shawn Stines and District Judge Kevin Mullins.

Kentucky Detective Clayton Stamper recounted that Stines surrendered immediately after the incident, but his motive remains unclear. The sheriff made several calls to his daughter just before the shooting, according to additional surveillance footage that has not been publicly released.
Authorities have reported that the incident is being investigated as a possible sex scandal, as Stines' daughter's phone number was found saved in Mullins' phone. Defense attorney Jeremy Bartley has declined to disclose a potential motive, while Kentucky State Police Trooper Matt Gayheart confirmed that the cell phones are being analyzed.
