The attorneys for former Letcher County Sheriff Shawn Mickey Stines, who is accused of murdering District Judge Kevin Mullins in Letcher County chambers, have filed a new motion to have their client’s indictment dismissed.
The motion states that the state failed to record a November 2024 meeting between state prosecutors and the Letcher County grand jury that eventually indicted Stines.
The filing said the grand jury was “deprived of information known to the Commonwealth, sought in question by grand jurors, but not disclosed.”
