Announcement for the Day! | PIxabay by Skitterphoto

Sonya Massey was shot and killed in her own home by Sangamon County sheriff's deputy Sean Grayson after calling 911 for help. Now, Massey’s family is demanding a change in the law to prevent officers like Grayson, who bounced between six police departments in four years, from holding a badge and a gun.

Reset turns to a reporter and an expert in criminal justice reform to find out what Massey’s family is calling for, why some policymakers are hesitant, and what change is needed to ensure police officers are held accountable for misconduct.

GUESTS: Mawa Iqbal, statehouse reporter, WBEZ

Sharon Fairley, professor at the University of Chicago Law School
