PIKE COUNTY, Ky. (WSIP/WXKQ) – A Pike County man has been sentenced to 20 years in prison after pleading guilty to the shooting death of his mother.
Sixty-year-old Alex Yuhas of Pikeville pled guilty to capital murder and two counts of terroristic threatening.
The charges stem from a 2024 incident on Old Wagner Station Road, where Kentucky State Police responded to a 911 call reporting a domestic disturbance.
Troopers later found Paulette Mullins dead from a gunshot wound.
