State Senator Steve McClure (R-Springfield) released a statement following the release of bodycam footage showing the shooting of Sonya Massey by a Sangamon County Sheriff’s Deputy.

“I watched the video footage this afternoon, and I am shocked and horrified by what transpired. My heart goes out to Sonya and her family, who will remain in my thoughts and prayers. They deserve justice. I commend the Sangamon County State’s Attorney for swiftly charging the Deputy with murder. When I was a prosecutor, I viewed hundreds of hours of police interactions and I never saw anything like this. The Deputy who committed this murder is exactly where he belongs, in jail.“
