Derek Chauvin, the former police officer who triggered a summer of racial justice protests when he murdered George Floyd on a Minneapolis street in 2020, has been transferred to a Texas prison after being stabbed at a different facility nine months ago.
Chauvin, 48, was convicted in 2021 of killing Floyd, 46, and sentenced to 22.5 years in prison for second degree murder, then later given a separate 21-year federal sentence for violating Floyd’s civil rights.
