Illinois sheriff's deputy charged with murder in fatal shooting of woman who called 911

An Illinois sheriff’s deputy has been charged with murder in the fatal shooting of a woman inside her home, a death that led to protests about justice for the Black victim.

Sonya Massey was killed after Sangamon County deputies responded to her 911 call early on July 6, State’s Attorney John Milhiser said.

A statement from Milhiser doesn’t describe the circumstances that preceded the shooting at Massey’s home in Springfield, 200 miles (322 kilometers) south of Chicago. But he said a review of body-camera video doesn’t support the use of deadly force.

Deputy Sean Grayson was indicted on charges of first-degree murder, aggravated battery with a firearm and official misconduct, Milhiser said Wednesday.

Ben Crump, an attorney for Massey’s family, said the 36-year-old woman had called police about a suspected intruder in her home. He said she was unarmed and shot in the face.

She called them for help, was unarmed and they shot her in the face. Excuse me what the fuck.

They’ve been murdering us for centuries. You’re outraged about this one. What the fuck, indeed.

Please do better, friend. Remember that you’re wearing our badge (.ml).

Also, nice username.

The ONLY Reason this cop is getting Charged for LITERALLY SHOOTING AN UNARMED WOMAN IN THE FACE is because of the Woke Agenda!

This pig must have done something indescribable if they charged him before the body cam went public.

Think about it, you’d have to have a police official, a prosecutor, and a union guy all agree that they cant’ defend what this pig did.

I think you’re right. They must see this as something indefensible and seek to separate themselves as quickly as possible. Or, maybe we’re actually seeing a shift in the culture of policing and they’re less likely to defend at all costs. I would much prefer that to be the real reason, though I won’t get my hopes up.

Prosecutors said Grayson discouraged the other deputy from getting a medical kit from their vehicle.

Releasing that detail does not bode well for what’s on the recordings.

“Don’t bother with the kit, help me collect her brains off the wall here.”

An Illinois sheriff’s deputy charged with murder in the death of a Black woman shot her in the face during a tense moment over a pot of water in her home, authorities said Thursday.

Prosecutors said Grayson “aggressively yelled” at Massey to put a pot down. They said she put her hands in the air and ducked for cover before she was shot in the face.

And then right after that is the part about the medical kit. So you kill someone who asked for help because they were holding a pot of water.

Exactly, they don’t give up theirs unless it can take down more.

You can’t blame that on the cop. How was he to know that the only black person on site wasn’t the criminal?

And as we all know, existing while black is perfect justification for execution without trial. /s

And this is why I’ll defend my own home, thank you very much.

Forget about defund, cops need to be disarmed.
