This morning, there are renewed calls for police reform after a deputy shot and killed an Illinois woman who called 911 about a possible intruder in her home. The deputy, since fired, has pleaded not guilty to first-degree murder charges, and new scrutiny has unveiled his checkered past.

    We live in a society where you call the police for help, only to then need to call for help again because of the police.
  • @MrLuckytrucker21
    Bad cops that job hop, need to be blacklisted and put in a database so future hires can avoid these people!

    I swear some people will bend over backwards to the back of their legs to defend evil individuals just because they wear a blue costume. She did not throw anything at them, she was cowering from having guns pulled on her, and also that psychopath they want to defend was the instigator in all this after taking such huge offense to his ego. Grayson deserves no sympathy
  • If he can get hired with two DUIs then I should get hired on as Chief of Police.
  • I need someone to answer me that question: why did he go in the house???
  • @birdyla6938
    We can't hire people with a questionable past. Neither police or fire. Locally we are dealing with two top fire chiefs who never should have been put in charge.

    Wtf did she do wrong? She didn’t threaten him in any way whatsoever. No weapons. That cop’s life wasn’t in any danger. She posed no threat. That cop is just a psychopath. This generation of cops are awful. My great uncle was a stater and he was a good cop. He freaks out with these cops nowadays on how they behave.
  • @claireconover
    neither “drug” is illegal. both are commonly prescribed. you are not allowed to shoot people… even if they’re drugged up, legal or otherwise
  • @ASunrise7
    Looks like he set her up, check the stove? And drop the pot? THE POT?!!! May she get justice! 💔
  • @davidholmes1771
    This dude Shot her Multiple times, she was Unarmed and Nowhere near him. Please explain your way out of this. Please. This is bs
  • @UrHusbandsBih
    From the banging on her door to the way he talked to her about getting her ID you could tell right off that dude was WICKED
  • @exhalealexinhale
    So you're telling me that after being fired for lying on a previous police report and being discharged from the military, also two DUI's on his record and they still hire this man and give him a gun. That is absolutely terrifying, Imagine how many police officers are out there that don't even qualify as a decent citizen, let alone an officer of the law. Our country is incredibly pathetic when it comes to police standards.

    With 2 big cops how dangerous could a lady be with a pot in hand.
  • @ResseDfa
    Remember she rebuked him and he responded by killing her
