Speaker 1 (00:02):
According to People magazine, Former First Lady Michelle Obama opened
up about her style in her new coffee table style
book called The Look. During an interview with People, Michelle
talked about the freedom to rock her hair the way
she wants to now versus White House years, where she
didn't feel that braids were an option. She said, in
(00:23):
part quote, I wasn't sure whether the country was ready
for it. The First Lady went on to say, is
women of color. That's the way our hair naturally grows
out of her head. It's beautiful. And if I want
to wear it straight, if I want bangs, if I
want braids, if I want them up, if I want
to add a little color to it, let that be
my business. Nothing is inappropriate. Yeah, yeah, I agree, whatever
(00:47):
it is.

Speaker 2 (03:18):
You've my first week in office, I'm pardoning.
Speaker 3 (03:22):
I'm pardoning one hundred people a day.
Speaker 5 (03:28):
All right, all right, we're gonna switch gears here, guys
and talk about this story. Yesterday, a jury found former
deputy Sean Grayson guilty of second degree murder in the
killing of Sonia Massey. We previously told you about this
horrific story back in July of last year when Sonya Massey,
(03:49):
who was a thirty six year old, unarmed black woman
in Springfield, Illinois, when she called the police for help
when she thought a possible prowler was outside her home.
Well inside the home, Deputy Grayson said, Massey began acting
erratically when she said I rebuke you in the name
of Jesus, while walking toward him with a pot of
(04:09):
water on her stove. The former deputy testified on his
own behalf and said that he was equipped with a taser,
but said she was wearing layers and both prongs have
to stick in for the taser to work. Attorney Benjamin Croft,
a friend to the show, is representing the Massey's family
in a civil lawsuit, released a statement that read quote,
(04:31):
while we believe Grayson's actions deserve a first degree conviction,
today's verdict is still a measure of justice for Sonia Massey.
Oh wow, this is the one with a boiling pot
of water.
Speaker 2 (04:44):
Okay, but listen though, Yeah, I got what you say
about the taser requires the proms stick in your clothes
in order for it.
Speaker 3 (04:53):
But let me ask you this question. What was you
shooting Hufau anyway? Right? Why did you reach for his gun?
Speaker 1 (05:00):
And he said he thought she was going to pour
the pot of boiling water on him.
Speaker 2 (05:04):
That's why he said, Yeah, that's probably why in her
house she called the police for him.
Speaker 3 (05:13):
She in her house.
Speaker 4 (05:15):
He didn't start his body cam right away on the property.
His partners body cam was on, and so his partner
was kind of basically saying he didn't really have to
do what he did.
Speaker 3 (05:29):
But I think because.
Speaker 4 (05:30):
He is a police officer or a former deputy, that's why
he got second degree and not first first degree because
he probably felt whatever the threatened her whatever, but he
didn't have to kill.
Speaker 1 (05:42):
Her at all, well at all.
Speaker 2 (05:44):
Well, when you go to jail, yeah, there's there's some
different things going on in that, and they and they
know the news stories and they have a different justice
system in that up on everything. Inmates run the prison,
the prison system.
Speaker 3 (06:01):
So mm hmm, yeah, yeah, I hope they be that
he's gonna have to get in protect your custody right away,
and then that ain't gonna work. They're gonna think.
Speaker 1 (06:13):
Yeah, they had been prompt to the season about the
business for the sivil suits. Uh huh.
Speaker 3 (06:19):
Absolutely lated birthday to being I forgot.
Speaker 1 (06:23):
Oh okay, all right. Grayson's sentencing date has been set
for January twenty ninth. See see you know what see
see coming up at twenty minutes after the hour, we're
