Ex-officer Derek Chauvin, convicted in George Floyd’s killing, stabbed in prison

I don't feel bad for the guy, but I don't celebrate this sort of vigilante justice, either. Prisoners should be safe from other prisoners. Prison is not meant to be torture, and recidivism is a massive problem in the United States. Chauvin will have 20 years to contemplate his crimes, and treating him and every other prisoner will only reinforce their criminal proclivities.

Maybe Chauvin stabbed himself in a state of "excited delirium."

The important thing is, the inmate investigated himself and decided that he did nothing wrong.

I'm sorely tempted to start circulating claims about what Chauvin had in his system at the time.

EDIT - Also, this shit:

Chauvin’s stabbing comes as the federal Bureau of Prisons has faced increased scrutiny in recent years following wealthy financier Jeffrey Epstein’s jail suicide in 2019. It’s another example of the agency’s inability to keep even its highest profile prisoners safe after Nassar’s stabbing and “Unabomber” Ted Kaczynski’s suicide at a federal medical center in June.

Oh it's a problem all of a sudden. Can't imagine why.

Murderer. The proper way to refer to him, mainstream news, is "the murderer Derek Chauvin". He was convicted of murdering George Floyd.

He should have just complied.

I feel this whole case is everything wrong with the justice system (aside from him actually facing consequences). A corrupt cop with a history of violence gets attacked in an overpopulated and understaffed prison where folks are punished instead of rehabilitated.

are we sure he didn't overdose? let's not jump to conclusions here.

I’m sure he would have been fine if he just complied.

The only thing that stops a bad guy with a sharpened melted toothbrush, is a good guy with a sharpened melted toothbrush.

I’m just glad he survived. Death is an escape he doesn’t deserve yet. He’s got many more years of “fun” to look forward to.

It's kinda freeing to be done with the disney channel ass idea that you should never celebrate others' misfortune. It lets headlines like this be heartwarming instead of disappointing

I hope he was stabbed somewhere where he found out what it was like to not be able to breathe.

While I don't particularly rejoice at the idea of anyone getting stabbed, I also can't possibly shed a tear for this guy.

In November 2022, an inmate at the facility’s low-security prison camp pulled out a gun and attempted to shoot a visitor in the head. The weapon, which the inmate shouldn’t have had ....

Well, that seems a bit obvious.

Well now he has felt the fear of death from the violence of another person too.

Ohh so this is why murderers should go to maximum security instead of medium.

Probably shouldnt have murdered Floyd over 20 bucks.

Wow, I'm soooo surprised an ex-officer got stabbed in prison. Who could've seen this coming?

Thoughts and prayers

Sucks to suck

fuckin took you long enough. i was starting to lose faith in the prison system

America is an endless parade of horrors, each worse than the last.

Couldn't have happened to a nicer guy.

Cool. Somebody do it again.

Sadly, he’s going to be okay.

Nothing to see here - NHI.

My thoughts and prayers go to the person who had to clean up the mess; Otherwise, this is just a taste of what he deserves.

(👁 ͜ʖ👁)

Not all heroes wear capes

Wait I thought Christmas was a month away but we're already getting presents?

It must be hellish to be so notorious, under constant threat, probably spening the rest of your life that way. No rehabilitation, no hope. An abnormally high suicide rate amongst the inmates of this type wouldn't be a surprise.

Why is he in Arizona?

He ded?

Total cumskin death

Nobody should celebrate this. He's got in sentence, there's no need to rub it in and make him suffer more, it doesn't help anyone. You can argue that he got off easy and should be in jail for longer, but wishing for his death in prison is needlessly cruel and short-sighted.
