Body-worn camera video released Monday by a prosecutor reveals a chaotic scene in which a Black woman in Springfield, Illinois, who called 911 for help is shot in the face in her home by a white sheriff’s deputy. The video shows a tense moment in which former Sangamon County Sheriff’s Deputy Sean Grayson yelled at 36-year-old Sonya Massey over moving a pot from the stove. He threatens to shoot her, Massey ducks and Grayson fires his pistol at her three times. Grayson has pleaded not guilty to charges of first-degree murder, aggravated battery with a firearm and official misconduct. He is being held in the Sangamon County Jail without bond.
