Chauvin, who was convicted in the 2020 murder of George Floyd, was allegedly stabbed with an “improvised knife” Nov. 24 while in the law library at Federal Correctional Institution in Tucson, Arizona, by inmate John Turscak, 52, according to a criminal complaint.
I’m not gonna celebrate, but i’m not gonna mourn either. This whole chain of events happened because he deliberately chose to abuse another human being while in a position of authority
Absolutely. Don’t get me wrong, I don’t feel bad for him at all. I do feel bad for the good people who are incarcerated who are victims of our prison system.
“Good people” who were incarcerated? Unless you’re trying to carve out that actual innocent people were incarcerated I don’t think the general prison population were good people. Now, I say that with the caveat that plenty of people get screwed by overzealous prosecutors, minimum sentence rules, or whatever, or that prison is warehousing people and has fuckall to do with actual reform. But you generally don’t wind up in prison if you’re a good person.
It’s worth mourning that someone in the custody of the state isn’t being protected from attack. For every evil cop getting stabbed there’s a ton more people (some of whom are innocent) who are subject to the same negligence and cruelty in the system.
That’s literally what happened when he murdered his victim though. Maybe the cruelty he’s facing will be a wake-up call to all the other criminals with a badge out there.
