A grand jury indicted former Letcher County Sheriff Shawn “Mickey” Stines last week on one count of murder of a public official. Stines, who served as sheriff for several years, resigned after the Sept. 19 attack at the courthouse in Whitesburg, a small town about 100 miles southeast of Lexington, near the Virginia border.No bond was set during the hearing, so Stines will remain jailed in another county.
Mullins died from multiple gunshot wounds, a Kentucky State Police detective said at the earlier hearing.
