Illinois deputy charged in fatal shooting of woman who reported intruder

Sonya Massey was shot in her home after
calling police, authorities said. This is Part 1 of the recently released Body Cam.

An Illinois Sheriff's deputy was indicted on multiple charges in the shooting death of Sonya Massey, a Springfield woman who called authorities to report a possible intruder.

The deputy, Sean Grayson, is facing three counts of first-degree murder, aggravated battery with a firearm and official misconduct, according to a statement from Sangamon County State's Attorney John Milhiser.

Grayson entered a not guilty plea at his arraignment on Thursday and was denied pretrial release.

The deputy was fired from the Sangamon County Sheriff's department this week, according to a statement from Sheriff Jack Campbell, posted to the department's Facebook page on Wednesday.

"It is clear that the deputy did not act as trained or in accordance with our standards," Campbell's statement says. "The actions taken by Deputy Grayson do not reflect the values and training of the Sangamon County Sheriff's Office or law enforcement as a whole."
