Bodycam video: Illinois deputy fatally shoots Sonya Massey, a Black woman who called 911

 Today, officials in Springfield, Ill., released the body-worn camera footage of an encounter between an unarmed Black woman and a sheriff's deputy. The encounter has enraged the community and led to murder charges against the officer. 

Earlier this month, 36-year-old Sonya Massy called 911 to report a possible home intruder. The officers who responded found no intruder, and the incident ended with Massey's death.
