Bodycam video reveals chaotic scene of deputy fatally shooting Sonya Massey, who called 911 for help
The fired Illinois sheriff’s deputy facing murder charges in the shooting death of Sonya Massey had a history of troubling behavior on the job — and was even warned he could end up in jail.
Grayson, however, denied any misconduct or even being at the hospital. The complaint was eventually deemed unfounded.Wayman Meredith, the chief of police in Girard, told CBS that he got into an argument with Grayson in March 2023, when the younger officer demanded that he send child protective services to address a woman outside of his mother’s home.
Grayson worked in Logan County until April 2023, when he took a new job at the Sangamon County Sheriff’s Office.Grayson was fired from Sangamon County last week after he pleaded not guilty to charges of murder, aggravated battery and official misconduct in connection with the July 6 shooting death of Massey.
