Sheriff who killed judge pleads not guilty and has not resigned

The social media buzz in the town seems to be that “the judge had it coming” because he was diddling the sheriff’s underage daughter.

Unsubstantiated and not justification. Let’s leave the kids out of it.

Yup. Any cop/sheriff already knows not to say a damn word.
A prosecutor might also frame a resignation as proof that the sheriff is guilty, why would an innocent man quit his job?

And if that’s true & not just an attempted rumor spread by the Kentucky State Police to justify the murder, it sound like the allegation was a consensual relationship with a 17 year old, and old news. Not the sort of thing that would justify a “heat of the moment” execution by anyone but a cop.

Also, I remain unconvinced that Sheriff Stines is actually in custody. He doesn’t show up on the Lectcher County inmate list.

Jennifer Hill didn’t simply “die.” She died of a drug overdose shortly after the civil lawsuit against Fields was filed. And her death allowed Fields to walk away from roughly half of the criminal charges filed against him

surely just a “coincidence”. jfc.

I’m just relaying what I’ve heard.
And it’s just as unsubstantiated as all the speculation about the sheriff and his actions and misdeeds.

NPR posted this story this morning:

One interesting tidbit:

Stines also told the newspaper that he had lost 40 pounds in the past two weeks and did not know why.

That’s 10,000 extra calories per day, assuming he was eating during that time. Barring an especially aggressive cancer, that’s a lot of worrying!

Or a poorly calibrated scale.

So poorly calibrated that time flowed backwards
