Bodycam video released by Illinois police shows deputy fatally shooting Sonya Massey after she called for help

(WCIA) – Illinois State Police have released body camera footage from the deputies who responded to the residence of Sonya Massey, a Black woman who was shot and killed by one of the officers after she had called them for help.

Former Sangamon County Sheriff's Deputy Sean Grayson has been charged with three counts of first-degree murder in connection with Massey's death. He was also fired from his department last week.

Massey had called 911 on the night of July 6 to report a "prowler" outside her Springfield home.
