Arraignment For Former Sheriff Mickey Stines Scheduled for Today

Arraignment is scheduled for today for former Letcher County Sheriff Mickey Stines who was indicted last week for Murder of a Public Official by a Letcher County Grand Jury for the September 19 shooting death of Letcher County District Court Judge Kevin Mullins
at the Letcher County Courthouse.

Stines is set to be arraigned by retired Senior Judge Julia Adams who was a circuit judge in Clark and Madison Counties.

Following the Grand Jury indictment, Judge Adams stated that while she does not typically favor no bond, the bond for Stines could be “significant” when it is set today.
