Derek Chauvin Transferred to New Federal Prison After Stabbing by FBI Informant
Former Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin was transferred to a new federal prison last week after he was nearly killed in a stabbing last year.
Derek Chauvin was sentenced to 20 years and 5 months for violating George Floyd’s civil rights.
George Floyd died in spring 2020 after Chauvin knelt on his neck for 8 minutes during an arrest.
According to the medical examiner, George Floyd had a “fatal level” of fentanyl in his system at the time of his death.
Chauvin was charged with second-degree unintentional murder, third-degree murder and second-degree manslaughter
Derek Chauvin was stabbed more than 22 times last November by inmate John Turscak at the medium-security Federal Correctional Institution (FCI) in Tucson,
