Mickey Stines: His Family, Under Oath

Mickey Stines spent the night before the shooting at his aunt's house. He hadn't slept in seven days. He took a fistful of Benadryl and melatonin and none of it touched him. He sat up all night watching security cameras, terrified for his wife and daughter. And minutes before he killed his friend, he called his aunt from inside that courthouse — and asked to speak to his grandmother. She had been dead for two and a half years. His aunt said that under oath. That was one of three fights inside a single pretrial hearing. This is the full breakdown — the venue fight, the bond hearing, and the battle over how many times the state gets to put Mickey Stines' mind under a microscope. Retired Police Commander Drew Breasy breaks it down from the inside. We are not attorneys. This is not legal advice. Operational true crime — from the 911 call to the courtroom.
