#Kentucky #Judge #Shooting
“Not guilty, your honor”
The video” he is lying your honor”
What?! The sheriff wasn’t just placed on desk duty or paid time off?!
Don't forget, it was a judge. And a white guy. But most importantly a judge.
You act like Derek Chauvin got a paid vacation for murdering George Floyd. He’s in prison for life.
Fail liberal argument
TRUE
Do you even know what happened..? Lol want to rush to blame someone and you don't have the whole story....
Not with that video.
This was an execution. Not just a shooting.
They judge was a friend and slept with his underage daughter.
You’re sticking up for a dude that assaulted his daughter.
@@jennacat13 harris voter for you
It’s Liam Neeson’s “Taken” in real life.
@@jennacat13You mean had a consensual relationship with his adult daughter?
A sherriff going to prison? They're gonna torture that man and he's out of shape.
He KNEW what he was in for.
that dude is 10 years younger than me and i am in much better shape, i worked as a co in a state prison for 22 years, seen many former cops come and go, they keep their heads down
Ur dumb. Cops aren't in general pop
Just a thug with a gun, that's no sheriff!
The Judge was a CHOMO.
I've seen Walmart loss prevention offices that looked more dignified than this judge's "chambers".
This was an Appalachian court, so most of the defendants have seen Walmart loss prevention offices that looked worse!
You wanna pay the taxes for a fancy office?
Having experienced judicial malpractice once too often in seventy years, I wasn't at all sad to hear Qualified Immunity couldn't save him from someone with Qualified Immunity.
He probably was cheating with his wife or sleeping with his daughter.. that’s the only thing that makes sense
Don't even look like he like women tbh
@@toynaziwhere is the proof? You saying it’s true isn’t proof
If that's the case then why isn't the Sheriff making those claims?? as it would likely help his case... At least in the court of public opinion
I was thinking that as well. Men only go berserk like this when there's child molestation or worse going on.
It was his daughter that was what I was told an a video , if you hear where they switched phones then there was the shooting but until all the facts are out it's just hear say.
The sheriff: It was all AI.
"Allegedly" lol.. It's hard to argue with surveillance video of said event.
Right!? Lol and he pleaded not guilty
@@User69-699 you spelled pedo*h*le wrong!
Do some research to what this so called judge did to this man's daughter
Allegedly is a legal term. The issue has yet to be adjudicated where things like authenticity of the recording need to be established, identity of the people on the tape, etc. All this needs to be established for the record first. Maybe get off of TH-cam comments and actually crack a book and learn something…
Not these days, anyone can make convincing fake videos
@@User69-699 Did you see the judge lean away? He'll claim, that's a "fighting stance" and reason enough to shoot. /s Also how old is this daughter?
Stamper also said he was told Stines made a comment to another officer after he was arrested, saying, “They’re trying to kidnap my wife and kid.” Didn't say anything about inappropriate text, realtionship or anything.
Shady judge
I will add this for the folks out in the yard, IF you don't believe me, search for yourself. Caroline's(Sheriffs wife) cousin has a GoFundMe named "Support the stines family", while she encourages you to donate to the family, NOT for his legal bills, she makes it clear that the rumors about the judge being an abuser of the daughter are FALSE. Go read it and stop trying to give the homicidal maniac cover.
@@rickimhotep1236just because it's posted somewhere that he wasn't having relations with the sheriff's daughter doesn't mean he wasn't! Why would the judge have his daughter's phone number in his phone!!!!
wait until you hear why the sheriff said they are trying to kidnap his wife and kid. it's nothing like you are thinking. Wife and daughter were leaving the sheriff/ father because of his violence and being protected. He used the judge's phone because his daughter would not answer his call from his number.
@@Beverly-d6y Just because you don't know what you think does not make it true. You also have no factual knowledge that the daughters number was on the judge's phone. Even if it was it could be be for a legal lawful reason especially if the wife and daughter were in hiding from an abusive father and being protected.
Was that the judge that was fooling around with the sheriffs teendaughter?
NO, NO, NO, and everyone who is saying he was should have a law suit filed againstt them for SLANDER
@Asidebar He was. Now what?
@@Asidebarso why did he shoot the judge?
@@ijustwannabeadrummerNo one knows except the sheriff. That's what the investigators are trying to figure out.
I'm surprised that the Back the Blue crew isn't fighting for the sheriff to get his job back.
Yeah I was expecting more cop-lovers to say, "He feared for his life!" or some such nonsense.
Theres alot to this story there not saying
Yeah, that's why they have this thing called a "TRIAL".
Its just bad reporting.

Ur guys comments r dumb
@@russellpenoyer8180 BR549
Why is the media leaving out the reason this happened in the first place??
The events leading up to the shooting have been discussed on many MSM outlets--including broadcast TV. No need to initiate gossip or begin conspiracy theories!
@@patevans3709it’s not a conspiracy it’s a question. Why is the motive “ unclear “ when it’s not.
@@toynazi because it doesn't fit into the story they wanted it to be ..
@@patevans3709 has all the evidence been released ..so how was it discussed..so it was prejudged before all the facts came out ..classy .. sounds like a left wing play if I ever heard one .
@@patevans3709what were the events, I haven't kept up with the story, was the judge involved with the sheriff's daughter or something?
If the judge was guilty of inappropriate behavior with the sheriffs daughter, the father did what many dad's would do!
Okay that is what I was thinking like why is the Sheriffs daughters number on the Judges phone? That was weird.
Still a crime.
Violent white logic
ironically - there was no other way to get justice
How old is his daughter?
IF the judge was taking advantage of the underaged daughter, the sheriff doesn't deserve jail
Jury nullification.
@@OneGeekStudios 💯
That's not what is implied. The daughters number being on the phone after the sheriff used the phone to call her was the only thing that was disclosed. No real information was revealed by the investigator.
@josephrankin6055 but is that a cover up to avoid a larger story who is the investigator?
@@ledwallet1944 that's not a thing. A jury cannot disregard the law.
So the news media said the murder was not planned while the sheriff went to confront the judge without uniform, off duttty with a gun on breaching security
Sheriff was allowed to carry his gun in the Court. He did not violate security. however, he committed 1st degree premeditated murder.
You left put the part where he picked up the judges phone. The judge had the sherrifs daughters phone number on his phone
It is better to hold judgement before the investigation is completed. But to shoot an unarmed man who is already on the floor will be a tough case especially with it being on video.
@@InformedandBlessed520 Not tuff at all. Crime of passion or judge was reaching for gun.
@@InformedandBlessed520He's not worried about how it looks. The judge was sleeping with the sheriff's daughter. He wanted justice.
@@chadjones7569 putting the narrative being pushed by the accuser to the side the shooting is problematic. The shooting doesn’t meet the standards for justified homicide. A sheriff knows better than an average person.
@@user-roadwander Reaching for a gun? 😂😂😂 That judge was wounded and cowering when he was shot again on the floor. Crime of passion is going to be hard to claim because he is an experienced Sheriff who dealt with pedos before without shouting them.
Motive? No audio? Smells bad .
Sooo the judge was having a "relationship" with the sheriff's underage daughter and the sheriff lost his mind.
Crime of passion
You dont have a relationshup with a kid
@@mayelincarrasco583 Well she wasn't a kid allegedly...The consent law in Kentucky is 16...Old enough to go to the store and get the bread they say...
@liltsummerlin423 it's not considered a crime of passion ..the sheriff wasn't involved..it's called being a good dad .
@@ledwallet1944 16 is a kid .
That not what was implied by the investigator. The only thing that was disclosed was that the number was on the phone after the sheriff tried to call his daughter from the judges phone.
- they muted the audio for a reason, there's a lot more going on here.
There is obviously no audio, it's a security camera in the judges chamber. You *CANNOT* place a microphone in such a place.
@@ryanroberts1104 Yes you can. Microphone and video are the same thing in the eyes of the law (as far as the recording laws go). If they couldn't have a microphone, they couldn't have video either.
@@krow7402 Wrong. Video and audio are different things, and this is standard practice with security cameras in sensitive areas. Many cheaper/older cameras simply don't have mics, and obviously this place is not state of the art.
@@ryanroberts1104 why do you bots always have first name last name with numbers
@@louiedoee I've been a youtube member since you automatically got one with your name more than a decade ago. How long have you been here?
If the judge was being inappropriate with the sheriff's daughter, then the sheriff performed a public service.
How old was the daughter? If she's an adult, her life and relationships are really nobody else's business, even her parents'.
Yes, but why did he shoot him?
Justice
Sheriff would only dial his daughter’s number from the judges phone if his daughter’s number was already in it. There would be no other point to doing that.
Now “why” the number was in the judges phone is a mystery but we can assume whatever that reason was caused a dad to shoot a judge he knew personally.
That's not true. He could easily just dial the number himself. We don't have audio or call logs from the daughter's or judge's phones.
The killer was allowed to retire. He still gets a pension and retiree benefits.
NO he won't get a pension and benefits.
I understand from sources in Letcher County that a number of teenage girls were involved... There was a time in history where the Sheriff would not be charged, he would be immediately re-elected...!!
What sources? How do you have sources in Letcher County? Are you repeating what you heard on the internet?
What prevented the sheriff from inserting the daughter's contact info into the judge's phone while he was 'using' it? The cell company can easily show if that phone ever made calls to the daughter before that moment.
He had the audacity to plead ‘not guilty’
You’re ignorant of the law. Pleading not guilty is what you should do no matter how guilty you are. Never admit to it. The prosecution must present evidence and prove it. If they can’t your home free even if guilty. If you admit guilt that makes you guilty.
You plead not guilty to buy yourself time.
@tomaskey6844 lol if your found guilty after pleading not guilty you going away for a very long time. He's on video killing this judge how do you plead not guilty to that?
@@tomaskey6844he could’ve worked out a plea deal now he’s going to get life
Would you plead guilty in shooting a man that’s molesting your daughter that’s a child
Pleaded not guilty in the face of this evidence? That’s wild. That was an execution!
It is said the judge was fooling around with the sheriffs 17 year old daughter , still murder
I doubt it
Justified !
It was said he was sleeping with the both of them...AT THE SAME TIME!!
Said by who? Are you just repeating what you heard on the internet?
There is a part of our legal system known as "jury nullification".The legal system doesn't want you to know about it because it puts ultimate power of deciding a case in the hands of the jury. Jury nullification has always been in our system . It gives the jury the right to judge the law as well as the crime and can nullify the law if it is unfairly applied to a particular situation. If the judge was molesting the sheriff's under age daughter he could literally be acquitted because only one juror could not "in good conscience" convict this man in this set of circumstances. I bet you didn't know how powerful the jury system is. It's a secret. Look up jury nullification. You can get a little hand book all about it. People have been shooed away from in front of courthouses for trying to distribute them. Wonder why?
Gullible human, There is NO FAITH in this law system in the most corrupt country. AMERICA
That’s horrible! How can he plead not guilty?
It's your right to plead not guilty. But people like you want to take it away
@maddogmaz1576 I mean guilty is guilty my dude
@@oglou34Yes, after due process and a finding by the court. All spelled out in both the U.S. and state Constitutions.
Amazing how ignorant people are if the law! Never admit guilt in court. It’s always “Not Guilty”.

You don’t know what happened
@@PETRAMOTION And you are either slow or naive.
Sheriff was not standing up for his daughter as you think.
@@ledwallet1944 When you find out that the daughter and the judge were not having any improper activity you should apologize.
@@Asidebar I will. I put your username in my notebook. If you hear from me it will be an apology...If not, well he was sleeping with the daughter. Fair enough?

So edgy
@@TheJingles007 You must be new...
Detective Stamper (investigator in case) stated the Sheriff said “ They’re trying to kidnap my wife and kid”. A very curious statement which opens up a different theory on the motive.
ALLEGEDLY?
not sure of the meaning of the word?
@@ploppill34 MEANING?
@@ploppill34 Perhaps you could try a dictionary?
How are you allowed to plead not guilty,we all Saw it.
Uh, the U. S. and Kentucky Constitutions is my guess.🤔
EVERYONE has the legal right to plead not guilty and have a trial.
How can you plead not guilty when it is ALL on video ?
When that judge is a child mo
They are not releasing all the information. From what I learned it's some pretty messed up stuff. The judge was trying to do some ped crap with the officer's kid. The officer was infuriated and anger got the best of him. Honestly, I don't blame him.
@@fridayrestdayis what you "learned" actual fact or hearsay?
@@BudaKhan420 So you're saying he didn't shoot anybody?
@@GaryMiller-z6tthey’re saying it was justified. A justified killing isn’t murder. It’s going to be impossible for him to get away with it though.
Is his daughter a minor? He doesn't look young enough to have a child under 18.
Why did he shoot the judge
People are speculating that the judge was boinking his daughter bc the daughters number was in the judges phone…
So many willing to excuse 1st degree premeditated murder. Now the dad is going away for life, what a waste. The Dad could have exposed him but now the Dad gets to shower with men for the rest of his life.
There’s nothing more pathetic than a man who can’t control his emotions. At that point you’re no different than a woman…
No.
That judge was not going to do anytime. And the sheriff knew it.
-Was the 17yr old daughter getting personal with the judge? Was there any videos of them if so? Will there he any questioning of the girl? If so, then the dad will definitely feel justified in his actions.
the fact they are not giving you the detail of the judge is all the facts you need to know that the judge was diddlying with the daughter. The system wants to protect itself and a sherriff and much lower of the totempole than a sitting judge.
Spoken like a true MAGA.🤯
There was something about threatening to kidnap the sheriff’s wife and daughter too.
@@hwoods01 The fact that they stated that they do NOT have that information as of yet means that you are just making sh it up to fit your narrative. You must be a republican.
You do realize that he still committed MURDER and it's on video. Neither the Sheriff or his daughter were in danger. Firing multiple shots while he's wounded on the floor shows malice not justice.
Is it true the judge was in a relationship with his underage daughter?
Enquiring minds want to know
No. Just one more MAGA/Q-Anon fabrication.
Or did he want to know more about alleged abuse by the sheriff against his daughter and the sheriff knew the jig was up when the judge wanted to ask her about it
I heard you were
@@pisstoffcat5136 idiots want to know
Very sad😢😢😢
The cop was dumb to off the judge while on surveillance video
What was he doing with the judge's phone?
Verify suspicion! and showing direct link to phone. Making sure it is in evidence!
of course the daughters number was in his phone, the sheriff used it to call his daughter... BUT was she actually an existing contact? were there prior texts or calls? that wasn't disclosed at all so we really don't know anything
your number was also in his phone ......why?
Right? He literally could have added the contract in the process of making the call.
@@JustOneEarth What if he called from judges phone and she said "hey babe" or something and then dad/sheriff knew they were in a relationship or something and it set him off
@@ploppill34 he was my sugar daddy. guess i have to get a job now
How do you plead not guilty when theres a video
I don’t get the American system. If there is video evidence as clear as this, how can he even claim “not guilty”? It’s traumatic for everyone involved and unnecessary waste of money. He’s straight up guilty
If they plead guilty the judges set the sentence. If not guilty the jury does. It’s a play to get a reduced sentence
look up the case of gary plauche. there was clear video evidence in his case but the jury didn't convict.
There is a lot of speculation that the judge had inappropriate relations with that sheriff's underage daughter. If that's the case, it wasn't an execution but rather a public service. He should be found not guilty and reelected as sheriff.
Study up before commenting.
They usually plead not guilty. If you understood the system you would understand.
When the sheriff called his daughter from the judges phone what did he tell his daughter
"Are you really sleeping with him too?"
This is wild, but it’s more to this story. They are now doing damage control. Whenever there is a cover up, don’t nobody know nothing. What won’t come out in the wash, will come out in the rinse. Sounds like affair to me. It was wrong to take a life, but sounds fishy. They had just had lunch together. Sounds like someone put a bug in sheriff ear.
So ya'll gonna leave out the fact this judge had the Sheriff's daughter number stored on his phone. The sheriff attempted to call his daughter from his phone didn't get an answer, used the judge's phone to call her only to discover the number stored on his phone. Then this shooting....some math's missing here.
Yeah but the sheriff also said they're trying to take my wife and child away from me. Or words to that effect. The court system may have been trying to protect them from abuse. We don't know yet.
@@FJC464 Too much missing information for the public to have any viable opinion of this shooting.
You assuming the judge had the Sheriff's daughter's number on his phone instead o the sheriff just entering it because she and her mother were in fear of their lives from the dad.
Could he (the judge) been sleeping with the both of them and was trying to protect them from the sheriff? Nah!!!
@@triacer8424well we can't know the motive but we do know killing an unarmed person is still murder.

Which makes no difference at all.
We all already know...
yes the judge was a honorable man and was not messing around with the daughter. The sheriff is bad very bad.and he committed 1st degree premeditated murder all on video.
It's very helpful that the reporter mixes up people multiple times and sounds absolutely disjointed. Great reporting

@@Asidebar he had the sheriffs daughters phone number in his phone.
How in the he.. you gonna plead not guilty when it shows you doing it?
Think about it. He is charged with 1st degree premeditated murder. However, if it was a crime of passion it may be 2nd dgree murder or even manslaughter. Both are not a death sentence in the state of Kentucky. Make sense?
So... Nobodys gonna hold the judge accountable?
So no video for us??? I'll get it myself..... USELESS!
"The evidence before the court
is incontrovertable
There's no need for the jury to retire"

Apparently the judge was allegedly inappropriately messaging his underaged daughter. I dont blame the sheriff one bit if it's true
What did the Judge know that the Sheriff had to stop becoming public?
These two were friends you might not know the truth of what was going on before the shooting happened
Personally, I have never seen a story told so many times by so many media sources without providing real, conclusive answers. Amazing.
Yes, and we will only hear the truth if it goes to trial.
What is the motives from this Sherriff had killed the judge.
I believe they are leaving out details between the judge, sheriff, and his daughter as it could prejudice any potential jury members with how impactful it could be on jury selection due to the news focus.
Do not tell me theres no hate involved
How do you plead Not Guilty when you're caught on camera doing the terrible deed???
Not guilty by reason of temporary insanity.
He Identifies as Black
It's the normal way criminal plea. They have attorneys that give false hope that a jury might vote not guilty.
Depending upon what the judge did previously, the Sheriff could plead "guilty" with an explanation. I got out of a ticket in traffic court years ago but this is obviously a totally diff. situation. I'm just thinking what the judge did was so heinus no jury would convict him. The news media don't want to release more details so it's hard to tell.
I would go to prison for my daughter, not my wife I would not risk my life for her, but my daughter I would
So the sheriff was not working at the time? He was not in work clothes. Does this mean he found out something and went to the judge on his own time?
More context would be interesting. Is the daughter a minor? Are they estranged? Is this being offered as an excuse by the defense, or motive by the prosecution?
The motive was the judge interacting with the sheriff's minor daughter.
That sounds like a p diddy situation but ofc
A lot of cover up by media.
I wonder who the judge was connected with
I don't know how i feel about this? How old was his daughter?
Why is he even allowed to plea not guilty if he’s clearly guilty
We have a due process.
Learn the constitution.
Do you vote Democrat?
The people here are really not that surprised. Yeah, the people involved and the place, but we know these things have been talked about for a long time.
I wonder how the defense will spin this one 😂
