From Army Misconduct to Badge & Gun: Bob Motta On The Murder Of Sona Massey-WEEK IN REVIEW

Before he killed Sonya Massey, Deputy Sean Grayson was already a walking liability — fired from department after department, discharged from the Army for misconduct, arrested for DUI, and still somehow cleared to wear a badge in Illinois.

In this powerful conversation, Tony Brueski, Stacy Cole, and Todd Michaels and attorney Bob Motta expose how that happened — and why it keeps happening.

From failed background checks to lax hiring standards, the system designed to protect the public instead recycles problem officers. The result: tragedy after tragedy.

Grayson’s conviction for second-degree murder feels hollow when the larger machine that put him in that kitchen still runs unchecked. Tony and Bob unpack the loopholes, the union protections, and the culture of silence that let Grayson slip through every filter.

They also explore Illinois’ new “Sonya’s Law,” the state’s attempt to patch the holes after it was too late — and whether any of it will stop the next preventable death.

Hidden Killers — where we hold the system accountable, one case at a time.
