A sheriff in Kentucky is accused of fatally shooting a district judge at a courthouse Thursday afternoon, authorities said.
Judge Kevin Mullins was in his district office when he was shot shortly before 3 p.m., and Letcher County Sheriff Mickey Stines has been detained in the slaying, Kentucky State Police said Thursday night.
Stines, a two-term sheriff, is expected to be charged with first-degree murder, state police said.
