That trial had about as much legitimacy as a Stalin era drumhead court.

He's already been stabbed once. He's got a massive target on his back.


One incident but stabbed 22 times and nearly killed.

Wiki summary:
quote:

While serving his concurrent state and federal sentences at the FCI Tucson prison, Chauvin was stabbed 22 times with a shank by another inmate while in the facility's law library at about 12:30 p.m. local time on November 24, 2023.[135][136] Prison employees performed "life-saving" measures on Chauvin who suffered serious bodily injury and was taken to a hospital for further evaluation and treatment.[137] Prior to the assault, Chauvin's lawyer had advocated for keeping him away from other inmates for his own protection.[138] The stabbing attack on Chauvin was compared to the July 2023 prison assault on Larry Nassar and it raised further scrutiny of inmate safety in the federal prison system.[138] Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison denounced the attack, stating that Chauvin "was duly convicted of his crimes and, like any incarcerated individual, he should be able to serve his sentence without fear of retaliation or violence."[139][140]


This also looks like he was not separated from general population.

If true, why now? Should have been done before he got the crap beat out of him in prison. This country and its crack heroes! Damn!

It needs to happen - right after Nov elections. Don’t want to start mostly peaceful murders and looting and burning before them.

imagine the billions in damage that would be done as a result of it


Imagine a federal government finally taking action to prevent the damage.

That's great, but he's still fricked in Minnesota.
