Derek Chauvin, the Minneapolis police officer who m*rdered George Floyd, was st*bbed by another inmate and seriously injured Friday at a federal prison in Arizona, according to a new report.
The attack happened at the Federal Correctional Institution, Tucson, a medium-security prison that houses some of the most notorious criminals in the world.
The Bureau of Prisons confirmed that the killer cop was assaulted at FCI Tucson at around 12:30 p.m. local time Friday. In a statement, the agency said responding employees contained the incident and performed “life-saving measures” before the inmate, who it did not name, was taken to a hospital for further treatment and evaluation.
No employees were injured and the FBI was notified, the Bureau of Prisons said. Visiting at the facility, which has about 380 inmates, has been suspended.
Derek was truly a “k*ller cop.” In his career, he had 18 complaints against him on official record and was involved in three police shootings, one of which was fatal. He received two letters of reprimand for misconduct.
On May 25, 2020, Chauvin knelt on George Floyd’s neck for about nine minutes while Floyd was handcuffed and lying face down on the street, calling out “I can’t breathe”, during an arrest made with three other officers. Derek was dismissed by the Minneapolis Police Department (MPD) on May 26 and arrested on May 29. The murder set off a series of protests in the Twin Cities and across the rest of the United States, later spreading around the world.
