Nearly 250 women have been fatally shot by police since 2015, the recent shocking bodycam video of Illinois police shooting of another Black woman in her home sparks outrage. Sonya Massey called the police to investigate a report of a suspected "prowler" on July 6 at 12:50 a.m. outside her home in Springfield, Illinois.
The video, recorded by cameras worn by the officers, shows Massey, in her kitchen removing a pot of boiling water from the stove at their request. As she was doing so one of the officers instructed her to drop the pot, Massey said, "I'm sorry" and began to duck. Within seconds the sheriff's deputy made two steps toward the kitchen, yelled at her to drop the pot again, and began shooting.
