    Massey then pours the water into the sink and tells the deputy, “I rebuke you in the name of Jesus.”

    Grayson threatens to shoot her, according to the video, and Massey apologizes and ducks down behind a counter … She briefly rises, and Grayson shoots her three times in the face, the footage shows.

    The footage is from the point of view of Grayson’s partner, because Grayson did not turn on his own body camera

    Grayson was discharged from the U.S. Army for “misconduct (serious offense),”

    How could we ever know that someone discharged from the army for serious misconduct would turn out to murder a woman in her home?

      Also, I believe, he worked in 6 different police departments in 4 years. They shuffled him around more than a priest under investigation.

    Kudos to ABC News for not doing the usual “copaganda” thing and overusing passive voice.

      She wasn’t “murdered” or even “killed”, she “died by homicide” - don’t you see the difference?

      Yeah, me neither. :-(

        Are we perhaps getting A/B headlines?

        The title of the article that I get says she was killed in her home by police, and the third line of the lead paragraph says she was fatally shot by a police deputy.

        That’s pretty’s good, especially by centrist media standards, where they’d usually say that a “a woman has tied after a hoke invasion, after an altercation with police “.
