Sonya Massey Bodycam Footage [EXTREMELY GRAPHIC]

This one is pretty cut and dry. The officer was charged with murder, and I wholeheartedly agree after watching the footage. 

What do you guys think?

What do you guys think?

Yeah, that one cop clearly is guilty. Even if that woman had tossed the pot it wouldn't have gone very far, I mean it only got to their feet because it poured out on the floor.

[Creaky]

Who employs these people for position's of authority, that cop had no empathy, compassion or care for the lady
Imagine a few unhinged in the police force, the streets would be a mess

Well that escalated quickly. What am I missing here? 

It sounds like she says ‘I rebuke you in the name of Jesus.’

The officer responds with ‘I’ll shoot your fucking face off!’

Did I miss a threat from her?

I understand he was frustrated with her, as she was clearly on drugs and deflecting incessantly. The actions didn’t justify the result, though. Also seems like he could have shot the pot out of her hands instead of shooting her in the head……

Another reason to never call the police for help.

This sucks for everyone involved. Many lives destroyed, not just the woman’s. 

She does say this twice to the officer:

"I rebuke you in the name of Jesus"

It obviously lit him up as he may be spiritual but use of deadly force wasn’t in play here? As a result I have to agree with the others that he was wrong to use deadly force, especially a head shot. 

She obviously could not have a gun hidden in the pot of boiling water and yes, she doesn’t raise her hands as ordered and if she did go for a gun from the among the items on the counter it could be an issue. For the officer. 

What I did take note of is that on specific questions or items she would become alert. Just who was on the telephone? Her dealer? Then the driver license issue. Then she goes bad on the cop and starts playing the Jesus card so just what was her intent. Especially being so standoffish when they showed up. That gets my bunny ears up.

As in WTF are you guys doing here? 

In my opinion we can only hope they lock the crime scene down and the only way I can find this officer NOT guilty is if a loaded firearm is on the top of the counter. Otherwise he’s guilty. Now, I am wondering whether she was trying to lure the police over and then ambush. 

I will bet that was what the cop was thinking especially when she rebuked him in the name of Jesus. Then again her comments as to what she saw in him could explain that he himself was under a spiritual attack. That isnt recognized by our courts or "science" 

Speaking to RNS, Beckwith provided his own explanation of Massey’s near-last words.

“For Sonya to say that I rebuke you in the name of Jesus, she, in that moment, saw something demonic in the eyes of that officer,” he said. “She felt something in her spirit that did not line up with the love of Jesus Christ.”

At the end of the day let’s take this beyond the color card as in toxic people draw out the worst in others and it just escalates exponentially.

So why did the police go inside the home? To get some cheap drug bust or to double check to see if an intruder wasn’t inside? NO to the drug thing as it was the latter. 

Leave his future up to a jury and not to the filth in Congress.

No other way for me to see it as other than murder.     Responding to the possibility of a pot of boiling water doesn't warrant being shot and killed.    The officer didn't give her sufficient time to slow her roll.    He went into scream and attack mode, and took her noncompliance as an attack.    

He murdered her, imo.   

What I hate is that videos like this get represented as the norm, and in my opinion, this kind of response, while horrific, is the exception.   I think most LEOs would agree.

[Maxmars]

I'm tempted to question "modern police training."

Law enforcement responses "out of fear" always risks these horrific results. 

I can't imagine trying to justify this outcome on face value.... but someone will, I promise, someone will.

My gut reply isn't fit for public.

MF'er should be paraded through the street.

I can't handle injustice like this, absolutely enraging.

Get the F out of her house to start with. MF'ers.
