No reason why, only that there was an argument.

A spokesperson for the Kentucky State Police’s post in the region told the Daily Beast an investigation into the “isolated incident” was ongoing.

We should pass laws now that even LE shouldn't be able to carry firearms in the courthouse.

Well, these things occur over lust, loathing, love or loot. Wonder which of the four this one was over. Sounds personal.

Wow. Thinking the sheriff should have cut the judges weener off along with castration.

If true……Justified and praise worthy

If that is true I hope the Sheriff is set free and reeelected.

I was really hoping for some "Justified" like drama, and it delivered.

It is “the deep dark hills of eastern Kentucky”.

After doing some research. There was a law suit against the sheriff for not property training a deputy. This deputy apparently was offering exchange of special treatments in jail for sexual favors. I also found out that the sheriff was a dem. I couldn't find what party the judge belonged to but he was appointed by a dem governor. I think I will hold all opinions till more facts come in.

I would slow the roll of accepting this at face value at this point.
