Before Judge Kevin Mullins, who shaped the Letcher County courthouse?
Tonight, Hillbilly Crime traces the judicial history from District Judge Larry Collins to Judge Jim Wood and eventually Judge Kevin Mullins.
Judge Wood reportedly started the court’s drug-rehabilitation program.
Mickey Stines worked as Wood’s bailiff before continuing under Mullins, while also working in home incarceration.
That history raises important questions about how court-ordered treatment, private supervision, courthouse personnel, and unwritten practices passed from one administration to the next.
This is not an accusation that Collins or Wood participated in later alleged wrongdoing.
It is an investigative look at public records, newspaper archives, and the system inherited by Mullins and Stines.
Who built the structure?
Who controlled it?
And how did Letcher County’s courthouse evolve into the environment surrounding the Mullins shooting and the Ben Fields scandal?
Receipts first.
Questions out loud.
Follow the power.
