Welcome to the podcast that promises to bring you the very #BestGuests in all of #TrueCrime.

The murder was caught on video.The courthouse was allegedly filled with sex, secrets, and threats. And now the killer says he’s the victim.

Former Letcher County Sheriff Mickey Stines was caught on tape unloading bullets into Judge Kevin Mullins—but now he wants the entire murder case thrown out. He claims prosecutors broke the rules, grand jurors were manipulated, and that he was silenced for knowing too much about explosive sexual misconduct inside the courthouse, including sex acts allegedly caught on tape in the judge’s own chambers.

We're unpacking the chilling video, the bombshell new motions, and whether the insanity defense is a play for sympathy—or something more sinister.
