Speaker 1 (00:00):
Some donkey. Today's just so watching Charlotte Man. I never
heard donkey of the day.

Speaker 2 (00:09):
Say it again?

Speaker 3 (00:12):
Ye yeah, donkey Today for Wednesday, July twenty fourth goes
to Sean Grayson.

Speaker 1 (00:23):
If you don't know who Sean Grayson is.

Speaker 3 (00:25):
He's a thirty year old Sangamon County Sheriff's deputy who
has been fired from his position because he murdered thirty
six year old Sonya Massi in cold blood. Sonya, rest
in peace to Sonya Massy. Sonya had called nine one
one to report a possible prowler at her home in Springfield, Illinois,
and then this happened. Let's go to CBS News Chicago
for the report.

Speaker 4 (00:45):
Police President Joe Biden responded to the shooting, saying that
Massey should still be here tonight. She called nine to
one one to report a prowler near her home and
an encounter quickly takes a deadly turn. We do want
to warn you that this video is hard to watch.

Speaker 5 (01:00):
Body camera video shows Sonya Massey opening the door for
Singamon County Deputy Sean Grayson and his partner earlier this month.

Speaker 1 (01:07):
Will take you so long, ANSWER's door?

Speaker 6 (01:09):
Oh?

Speaker 2 (01:09):
I was trying to put there, you all right?

Speaker 3 (01:12):
Mentally.

Speaker 5 (01:15):
Once inside her Springfield home, Deputy Grayson asked Massy to
check on the stove. The situation quickly escalates.

Speaker 2 (01:26):
Yeah, but.

Speaker 5 (01:34):
Massy begins to apologizing. Grayson fired three times, hitting Massy
in the face.

Speaker 3 (01:41):
You know what else do we do?

Speaker 7 (01:43):
I'm not taking pot boiling water to face.

Speaker 3 (01:48):
He clearly knew she dealt with some mental health issues
because he asked her how she's doing mentally. She told
him she took her medicine. Is sending healing inagy to
the family of Sonya Massy. I will never understand how
so many police officers just forget the protect and serve
part of their job. There is really nothing I'm gonna
say this morning that I haven't said a million times before.

(02:08):
Police officers, you have the power, all of it. You
got guns, a badge. This woman had a pot of
boiling water. She not thinking about you and lets you
an egg, okay, a hot dog, a bag of tea.
That woman sogna mass He told you, I rebuke you
in the name of Jesus. You know why, because she
could feel the negativity coming off you, because she felt
your energy, she felt your spirit, and she rebuked that

(02:31):
demon in the name of Jesus, only for you to
prove her right by shooting her dead for no damn reason.
If you feel threatened, tell her to back away from
the boiling water. If she doesn't comply, then leave. I don't
go stand in the yard, sit in the car, call
for backup, Send somebody who knows how to de escalate
the situation.

Speaker 1 (02:48):
If you don't, but to shoot up.

Speaker 3 (02:51):
I personally think Sean Grayson should be charged of premeditated murder.
If you say to me, I'll shoot you in the
face before you shoot me in the face, that sounds
premeditated to me.

Speaker 2 (02:59):
Now.

Speaker 3 (03:00):
Sonya Massey's family is calling for a probe into the
hiring of Sean Grayson because they don't understand how he
was hired in the first place. He's worked at six
different law enforcement agencies in four years.

Speaker 1 (03:09):
He was charged with duy twice.

Speaker 3 (03:10):
It's unclear why Sean Grayson changed jobs so frequently. CNN
has reached out to other law enforcement agencies for more information.

Speaker 1 (03:18):
I don't think they've got in it yet.

Speaker 3 (03:20):
I don't know what to say, man, I don't know
what to do. I study stoicism. If you don't know
what stoicism is. It teaches the development of self control
as a means of overcoming destructive emotions. It encourages people
to focus on what they can control and accept what
they cannot, leading to emotional resilience and inner strength. And

(03:41):
today's daily stoic was somewhere Someone's dying.

Speaker 1 (03:46):
I want to play it for you.

Speaker 3 (03:47):
It's only like it's less than a minute long, and
I don't necessarily agree with all of it, especially when
it comes to a situation like Sonya Massey, but I
want to play it for y'all and see what y'all think,
because we're just the community, always trying to figure things
out and work all way through things. I just want
to know what y'all think it is we talk about
it in the room less please.

Speaker 2 (04:02):
A well meaning friend might ask you today, what do
you think about insert tragedy from the other side of
the world. You and your equally well meaning concern might say,
I just feel awful about it. In this scenario, both
of you have put aside your reason choice without doing
a single thing for the victims suffering from the actual tragedy.
It can be so easy to get distracted by, even

(04:24):
consumed by horrible news from all over the world. The
proper response of the stoic to these events is not
to not care, but mindless. Meaningless sympathy does very little either,
and comes at the cost of one's own serenity. In
most cases, if there is something you can actually do
to help these suffering people, then yes, the disturbing news

(04:45):
and your reaction to it has relevance to your reason choice.
If emoting is the end of your participation, then you
ought to get back to your own individual duty to yourself,
to your family, to your country.

Speaker 3 (04:58):
I see basically what I take from that, you know,
even though he's talking about something out of the country,
But basically what I take from that is most of
the grief about things happening somewhere to someone else you know,
is actually hypocrisy.

Speaker 1 (05:10):
And I don't want that to be the case.

Speaker 3 (05:12):
Like when I hear stories like Sonya Massey, I do
feel horrible.

Speaker 1 (05:15):
I wouldn't wish this on anyone.

Speaker 3 (05:16):
Definitely wouldn't want it to be someone in my family,
Definitely wouldn't want it to be a friend that I know.
But I also say to myself, these situations happen, we feel.

Speaker 1 (05:24):
Bad, we report on them.

Speaker 3 (05:25):
We go to social media with him, but then what
outside of a molding, what are we really doing? This
affirmation is also saying that if you can't do anything
to immediately change the situation, then we should probably move
on with our lives.

Speaker 1 (05:37):
That is what I completely disagree with, because that's.

Speaker 3 (05:40):
One of the reasons I believe these things keep happening
is because so many of us don't do enough.

Speaker 1 (05:46):
I just don't know what it is we can do.

Speaker 3 (05:49):
Please let Chelsea Chelsea Handler give Sean Grayson the biggest
hee haw hee haw hee haw. That is way too much,
Dan Maynez, I just don't know what it is we
can do. It feels like every few months we're telling
stories like this, Now, what do we do to change it?
Like I really, truly, I personally have no idea. I
would have to reach out to Tamika Mallory or what

(06:10):
are the activists?

Speaker 1 (06:11):
Are you know a lawmaker that I know? I don't
know what to do.

Speaker 6 (06:15):
Yeah, And then I've seen the video. It was it's
video servicing. Now when when other cops after he killed her,
other cops that came to the scene or whatever and
questioned him, and he said she came at him. With
the pod of water.

Speaker 1 (06:30):
But we know that's not true.

Speaker 6 (06:31):
Lying like you know that now you line, we see
the video, it's the video.

Speaker 3 (06:35):
But that's what I mean. We see videos like this
all the time. We know the officers be lying, but
what do we do? I feel like we're just telling
the same story over and over every few months.

Speaker 7 (06:44):
But at this at this point, I feel like police
officers have to be held liable in situations like this, right,
because what it makes somebody think twice and maybe say,
you know what, I might not be as aggressive, I
might not use my firearm in a way that I'm
not supposed to as if I have to do jail time,
if I if I'm sued, if I'm all at because
if you give them immunity, then they feel.

Speaker 1 (07:04):
Like they're above the law.

Speaker 7 (07:05):
But if this officer he was what fired immediately, he's
probably and hopefully gonna go to jail for a long
time because there was no reason to shoot that woman.

Speaker 3 (07:12):
But once again, maybe you're absolutely right. But we've had
these conversations a million times. We talked about eliminating qualified immunity.
How do we make these things apps actually happen. We
talked about, you know, getting the George Floyd Policing Act Pass.
What do we do to press to make this legislature
type of legislation happen.

Speaker 1 (07:28):
That's what I'm saying, That's what I want to though.

Speaker 6 (07:32):
I'm just disgusted about the whole thing. He even was like, man,
that bitch was crazy, even in the video of them
telling him that, I mean him lying on her, saying
that she came at him with the water, just the.

Speaker 7 (07:44):
Way he was talking about her, like, yeah, headshot and
the bitch was crazy. Nah, don't don't get the kid,
you know, the head shot.

Speaker 1 (07:49):
She's dead. I'll shoot you in the f and face.
Who talks?

Speaker 6 (07:52):
And then they had to know her, like you said, Charlamage,
They asked her this wasn't their first encounter her, because
he's are you a came in like she said, she
took our mage, you know so.

Speaker 3 (08:02):
And even saying to be is crazy afterwards like that
lets me know he know you knew her. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (08:07):
So I just don't know what we can do.

Speaker 3 (08:09):
Yeah, because everybody's gonna move on except for that family,
all right, except for the family.

Speaker 1 (08:15):
Thank you for that.

Speaker 7 (08:16):
