Deputy who killed Sonya Massey drew concerns over his aggression and integrity issues in previous jobs

The fired deputy charged with murder in the fatal shooting of Sonya Massey in Illinois had been reprimanded in a previous job over inaccuracies in his police reports, failure to follow orders from a senior leader and a perceived lack of integrity, according to a disciplinary file.

The admonishments are in Sean Grayson’s personnel file from the Logan County, Illinois, Sheriff’s Office, where he worked for about a year before he joined the Sangamon County Sheriff’s Office. Sangamon County fired Grayson this month, nearly two weeks after he killed Massey in her home after she had called police to report a prowler.
