Sonya Massey was murdered unjustly by a police officer with a sordid historical past behind the badge and ought to have acquired the most elevated stage of justice. Unfortunately, that wasn’t the case. Yesterday, BOSSIP reported that former Sangamon County Sheriff’s deputy Sean Grayson was only convicted of second-degree homicide and was cleared of the first-degree charge that he was also going through. As a outcome, instead of going through 45 years in prison, seemingly the remainder of his natural life, he’ll now only be going through 20 years behind bars. It ought to go without saying that the household and the neighborhood at large isn’t remotely glad.
Said Donna Massey, following the verdict, via KSDK:
“Anyone who saw the video and thought it was partly Sonya’s fault is inhumane,” said her mom Donna Massey. “I can’t wait til he gets to hell.”
Sonya’s father, James Wilbur,n adopted up with a related sentiment:
“Sean Grayson should be able to get out of jail when my daughter can get out of that burial vault,” said James Wilburn, Massey’s father. “He said he was going to shoot her in the face and he did it.”
Sontae Massey, Sonya’s cousin, spoke to the soul-crushing circumstance that Black people have been painfully compelled to acknowledge for years.
“I’m fueled by rage right now,” said Sontae Massey, cousin to Sonya Massey. “The justice system did exactly what it’s designed to do today. It’s not meant for us.”
This conviction is past disappointing, and we will only hope that the karma that Sean Grayson so richly deserves catches up with him inside the cold and unforgiving partitions of a prison bathe.
