Illinois State

The case of Sonya Massey recently went viral on social media after she was murdered in her home by an Illinois deputy in the most frustrating and infuriating ways. On July 6, Sonya Massey, 36, called 911 to notify them of a prowler near her home. This means that Massey called the police because she suspected she was being followed or threatened, and she feared for her life. Unfortunately, Illinois deputy, Sean Grayson, 30, was the one who responded to her call. A call that did not have the expected outcome because rather than serving and protecting Massey, Deputy Grayson was responsible and the reason for her death that night.
