Originally Published 2 months ago — by CNN
A white Illinois sheriff’s deputy, Sean Grayson, is on trial for the murder of Sonya Massey, a Black woman who called 911 for help. Prosecutors argue Grayson acted unjustifiably and shot Massey without lawful reason during a confrontation over a pot of hot water, despite her posing no threat. The trial highlights issues of police use of force and transparency in law enforcement backgrounds.
