Champaign woman to host event for gun violence, drug abuse awareness
CHAMPAIGN, Ill. (WCIA) — A Champaign woman is helping the community come together to honor gun violence and drug abuse victims. It's personal for organizer Shanna McGuire, whose brother died of drug use and her nephew was shot and killed. 'Went all out for everything'; Remembering Trooper Corey Thompsen through running She's held an event, the Hill Celebration, in their honor since 2022, but said it's especially important this year in light of recent gun violence. Two teenagers were shot near Oakwood Trace Townhomes on Sunday. Back in March 31-year-old Anthony Miller was killed in the same area. Wesley Park sits right alongside the Champaign home complex — which will be the backdrop for McGuire's event. 'There's a saying it takes a village to raise a child, it takes a village to come together and to combat gun violence, combat even the drug use, so coming together there's unity and power in numbers,' McGuire said. The man arrested for shooting Miller was found guilty of murder on Wednesday. This comes after he was acquitted of a 2023 murder this past summer. There are a few weeks until McGuire's event on June 28. She hopes people resonate with the stories of older community members and families who have experienced gun violence like herself.

Town hall held to prepare Peoria for Sonya Massey's trial
PEORIA, Ill. (WMBD) — A town hall was held Thursday in Peoria at the East Bluff Community Center to educate people about the upcoming Sonya Massey trial. It is a case that's grabbing national attention. Last summer, Sonya Massey, 36, was shot and killed in her home by a Sangamon County deputy. That deputy, Sean Grayson, is now charged with first-degree murder and other crimes. The case has gotten so much attention that it's been moved from Sangamon to Peoria County. So with such a high-profile trial coming to town, Sonya Massey's cousin, Sontae Massey, was at the town hall to answer questions about the trial and what he hopes to see. 'I just want the people of Peoria and Tazewell County to be upset,' Massey said. 'It's an obvious slap in the face and it's an insult to think that they can move this over here and take advantage of the people over here.' One supporter, Chama St. Louis, said Peoria has the family's back. 'Peorians are not going to sit down and sit back and just kind of let something happen,' St. Louis said. 'We don't agree with what happened to Sonya Massey in Springfield. And so this is our way of showing that solidarity and to let the family know that we have their back here in Peoria as well.'
