In a significant development, newly released audio has unveiled that the fatal shooting of Sonya Massey by an Illinois officer, who is now facing murder charges, was initially reported as a self-inflicted injury.
Earlier this week, disturbing footage surfaced showing the harrowing moment when Sonya Massey was shot three times. The footage reveals Massey apologizing to officers and retreating after one officer threatened to shoot her "in the f–king face" while she held a pot of boiling water.
Additionally, bodycam footage released by the Illinois State Police captures a dispatcher questioning the responding Sangamon County sheriff's deputies, "Just to confirm: self-inflicted?" An unidentified voice responds, "Self-inflicted," a few moments later.
