The height of irony.. He said she was mental, yet HE murders her for nothing.

[allthingsfittnessnutrition]

SHE SAID IM SORRY AND HE KILLED HER WHAT KIND OF EVIL.

[troykallhuff]

As a white man I'm also sick of watching these tragedies at the hands of law enforcement. The officer should be in prison for the rest of his life

[yvettegg]

I'm so tired of this racial injustice. This lady was murdered in her own home. She rebuked him and the evil in that man killed her. She deserves justice! This is unacceptable!!!!

[nrsjeni]

That cop was aggressive from the time he knocked on the door. May Sonya get justice, she was murdered in her own kitchen. God rest her soul.

As a Black woman I went from being afraid for my Son to being afraid for Me & My Daughters

I am a 59-year-old indigenous woman I have no children in this world and I refuse to bring any into this world America is where I live but it has never felt like home.

[officialBadYellaBone]

Saying I rebuke you shouldn't be a death sentence.

[tamaramcneil]

Like Malcolm X said, the most unprotected, disrespected an neglected is the Black Woman..This broke my heart!! To my sistahs, I love you 🤎

[burgundybutterflies]

SHE KNEW THE COP WAS EVIL A TWISTED.. EVEN HIS PARTNER KNEW

[annbrown]

This police officer had resigned from 6 different agencies plus he had two DUI’S, he had no business being a police officer‼️‼️🤨🤨

[zeldasmaster]

That thug cop needs to go to prison for life!

[biggregg]

This is why I never call the police, I’ll handle it myself!

[edwarddavis]

They wanna imply the woman had mental issues but not the cop who shot her in the face 😮

[larrylane]

At that moment she knew there was a demon in her house. She knew it. She felt it, im in tears and don't even know this family.

[kathypolias]

Sonya's dad is an absolute powerhouse. He is an amazing advocate for his daughter and for justice. I am so sorry, sir, for your terrible loss, but I know that you are making your daughter so proud.

[henrywilson]

If 2nd cop's bodycam was also turned off, they would have provided a different narrative of what happened. This is why keeping bodycam on throughout an incident should become a law. No muting, no turning it off.

[OracleOvDelphi]

Cops shouldn't be able to turn their body cam on or off. And if they do, instant felony.

[talktomewithbriiiine]

This is honestly the most distressing story I have ever heard about. A deputy so much of a coward.

[darrellsadler]

At this point, it should be investigated as a HATE CRIME.
