Convicted cop Derek Chauvin was stabbed in Federal prison where he is currently serving two sentences for murdering George Floyd in 2020, and the internet does not give a damn.
An anonymous source told the Associated Press that the stabbing occurred on Nov. 25 at the Federal Correctional Institution, Tucson in Arizona. While the Bureau of Prisons did not confirm Chauvin as the victim of the jailhouse shanking, it did verify that an imprisoned individual was assaulted at the medium-security facility and transferred to an area hospital after receiving “life-saving measures” from prison employees — which suggests the killer cop may have been knifed pretty badly.
Upon hearing the news, social media celebrated Chauvin’s impaling.
The comments showed quite the lack of empathy among X/Twitter users. One user referred to the stabbing as “Shanksgiving.” Another was more concerned with the status of the weapon and wanted to know if any harm had been done to the knife.
Floyd was murdered by Chauvin May 2020 after the latter kneeled on his neck and blocked his airway for over eight minutes. The police brutality was captured on cellphone and circulated through social and mass media causing a global uprising at the height of the COVID-19 pandemic.
On June 25, 2021, Derek Chauvin was found guilty of second-degree murder and sentenced to 22.5 years. In Dec. 2021, the former Minneapolis officer pleaded guilty to violating Floyd’s civil rights.
