Sheriff’s deputy got mad and fatally shot Sonya Massey without justification, prosecutor says
A prosecutor says an Illinois sheriff's deputy had no legal justification when he shot Sonya Massey in her home in July 2024 after the Black woman called 911 for help.
A pathologist in Sean Grayson's murder trial said a bullet the ex-cop fired missed Massey's brain but struck her carotid artery — and she might have survived if someone had stopped her bleeding.
The final meeting included more than 20 calls to action the commission hopes to see happen locally and at the state level.
Massey was killed in her home in Springfield, Illinois, last year after she called authorities over concerns about a prowler.
