Defendant Sean Grayson, a former Sangamon County sheriff's deputy, was charged with first degree murder, aggravated battery with a firearm, and official misconduct for shooting and killing an unarmed woman during a response to a 911 call. The case involves a dispute over pretrial detention, with the circuit court ordering detention, the appellate court reversing that order, and the State appealing to the Illinois Supreme Court to clarify standards for pretrial detention and conditions of release.
