Illinois court orders reevaluation of former deputy's pre-trial detention in murder case.

An Illinois appellate court has ordered a reassessment of the pre-trial detention of former sheriff's deputy Sean Grayson, charged with first-degree murder in the shooting of Sonya Massey. The court said the trial judge improperly focused on Grayson's status as a police officer. Prosecutors have asked the Illinois Supreme Court to review the ruling, citing concerns about societal upheaval upon his release. Grayson's next court appearance is set for January 13.
