  • WHY DO BODY CAMS EVEN HAVE AN OFF BUTTON? YOU’RE LITERALLY REQUIRED TO WEAR THEM BECAUSE YOU’VE LOST THE PUBLIC’S TRUST.
  • @mari189ful
    There shouldn't be an off button on the body cam. Why give an officer the option to hide their crimes?
  • The deputy was ultimately charged with first degree murder. He had his camera turned off until after the shooting. Another deputy followed policies and procedures and had his body cam on. It is supposed to be released at the beginning of the week. Knowing all that and listening to this radio coms clip, Im afraid of what will be shown on the cam. She called for help, and a boiling pot of water later, and she was shot in the head.
  • the people she called to for help and was hoping they could keep her safe are the same people that killed her 😢
  • Grayson, 30, drew his 9-millimeter on July 6 and threatened to shoot Massey in the face. Grayson "aggressively yelled" for Massey, who placed the 911 call, to put down a pot of boiling water before shooting her three times, one in the head. Grayson told his fellow deputy, so far unnamed and uncharged in the case, to not administer aid to Massey who would later die at HSHS St. John's Hospital. police investigation, including body camera footage, "did not support a finding" that Grayson was justified in his use of deadly force. Grayson also held a significant size difference compared to Massey, by more than one foot and double her weight. The discrepancy begged the question why he even needed a gun. This "Cop" purely murdered that woman in my home town where I was born & raised & still reside. Please be aware of even calling the police for even your own safety 🙏
  • @astoldby
    These cops shouldn't be allow to turn off their body cameras just to hide their Evilness!
  • Dude had a demon in him..soon as she said "I rebuke you in the name of Jesus!" The cop whole demeanor change quick as hell. Pay attention
  • @naruto73syfy
    Wow! Literally lied on that woman. Self inflicted my ass
  • That mfka tried to lie. They said self inflicted and then actually confirmed that it was. Knowing that it wasn’t.
  • @travelteam89
    Body cam releases today.... this happened 25min away from me. They hired Ben Crump. The cop was arrested same day they showed the family the body cam.
  • @bbennyj
    Imagine going to someone's house as a police officer because they called you and you straight up end up killing them for no good reason. I can't help but to shed tears for Sonya Massey.
  • @Sylvia-zv1eq
    How is this "self-inflicted" good god!!!! Its cop inflicted!
  • So someone shot themself 3 times? They actually thought that lie would pan out? Smdh!
  • He asked dispatch to “shut it down” so there would be no voice recording of what he was about to do. He killed her for having an obvious mental break down.
  • @FFEMTB08
    Why did they say this was self inflicted on here??
  • @BushidoBoyd
    I know this sounds weird and I don't really believe in supernatural things but his reaction to "I rebuke you in the name of Jesus" was really intense. I mean he seemed like a jerk earlier on, the way he was talking to her at the door but man it seemed like that phrase really did make him react as if she'd actually kill him. I feel like this dude was an actual demon that's why he got triggered by that comment.
  • @user-ur9vf1zm9g
    It’s not even safe to call the police for help, because you could end up getting killed…
  • @Endless-loveeee
    Just as quickly, when they watched Trump coming dangerously close to being assassinated, his story was making headlines nationwide; why couldn't hers be covered as well? Why couldn't her story be broadcast? It doesn't matter if she's black or white; a cop killed her; they killed this woman, and she wasn't a threat. She deserves justice. She deserves peace.🦋🦋 R.I.P BEAUTIFUL 🦋 🦋
