Kentucky judge killed by sheriff ran courthouse like ‘brothel’ — and traded sex for favors at twisted parties: victim

The rural Kentucky judge gunned down in his own chambers last year ran a twisted sex ring in which young women were coaxed into performing sexual favors just to get out of trouble, one of the alleged victims claims.

Tya Adams alleges she was among those caught up in Judge Kevin Mullins’ apparent sex-for-favors scheme that saw him and others in the tiny town of Whitesburg demand sex in exchange for cash, or to get offenders off the hook.

Adams told NewsNation’s “Banfield” that Mullins — who was shot execution-style in his Letcher County chambers, allegedly by his longtime sheriff pal Shawn Stines, last September — had warned her to keep quiet about the so-called depraved ring.

“We would do sex parties and perform shows and have sex with them for money, things like that,” Adams alleged. “It was consensual. But it was the thing that we were so young, and then they used it against us and to destroy our lives later.”

Adams said she felt forced to go along with the judge’s scheme because she feared Child Protective Services would somehow get involved and upend her life.

“They would make sure to make you feel as small and degraded and belittled as possible to take your power away,” Adams said.

It wasn’t immediately clear if the woman had any prior run-ins with the law, or if she was on CPS’ radar at the time.

She went on to say it was “just a given” she would keep her mouth shut about the apparent depravity, insisting: “Who would believe it anyway? Because the whole town was doing it. Nobody cares. They’re all swingers. It’s all a big party to them. It was just so normal.”

Separately, Sarah Davis — a former deputy jailer at the Letcher County lockup...

When a judge continuously steps outside the law that he’s paid to oversee, it’s no surprise that he’s treated like an outlaw.

Im tired of the " innocent until proven guilty" rules, if you shoot a man in cold blood, walk out into the courtroom and say, I killed that SOB.

There's no "alleged" killing. Its homicide and we know who was involved.

Now its up to the court to decide murder, manslaughter, insanity, momentary,loss of reason, etc.

karmelo Anthony didn't allegedly kill, he came right out and told the officers he did it. Now hes guilty of homicide, was it manslaughter, voluntary, involuntary, reckless, self defensr, or capital murder?

Steve Beshear, more Democrat scum.

Scott Adams was saying this morning that the Democrat Party is a criminal operation.

Wouldn’t surprise me.

My original take was that the Judge had to know what his bailiff was doing in his chambers.

I thought the judge might be trying to get the sheriff to take the whole fall and leave him out of it.

I thought the phone contact between judge and the daughter may have been intimidation.

Remember after the shooting the sheriff didn’t say much other than “they” were going after his family.

Those deemed paranoid often have a valid reason for being paranoid.
