Ben Crump on Sonya Massey: This Is the Worst Police Shooting Ever

‘This was so senseless’

RUSH EXCERPT:
CRUMP: "It is god awful when you think about what their new reality is. Her 17-year-old son malachi is very emotional. He says he just does not have words because he would be there every day for his mother ran the one day that he had to work and he could not be there, the officer shoots her in her face. Her 15-year-old daughter, summer, is in disbelief. They are having problems sleeping. Her father, who you spoke to on the phone, had a quadruple bypass surgery in 2022 and he said, he believed if he had his own heart when he saw that video, he probably would have succumb because it is that the emotional. It is that shocking. You and I have seen many instances of police excessive force but this is the worst police shooting video ever because this was so senseless. It was so unnecessary. She said I rebuke you in the name of Jesus. She is ducking saying sorry, sir, sorry. He shoots her anyway. This is why we need you on this one more than any other because this shocks the conscience in a way — think about George Floyd ’s video and this is just as s consequential, especially leading into a presidential election this year."
