Officers of color barred from guarding Derek Chauvin get $1.5 million in settlement
Officers who were barred from guarding Derek Chauvin, convicted of murdering George Floyd, received $1.5 million in a settlement with the county.abcnews.go.com
I beg to differ-Wilmot has some pretty violent men there. That complex has had several huge riots there in the last several years.Chauvin moved to Arizona federal pen in George …
Chauvin was taken Wednesday from a maximum-security prison in a Minneapolis suburb, where he often spent most of his day in a 10-by-10-foot cell, to the Federal Correctional Institution in Tucson, according to the Bureau of Prisons.
The Tucson facility houses 266 inmates, both male and female, as part of a larger complex that includes a high-security penitentiary and a minimum-security satellite camp.
Bureau of Prisons spokeswoman Randilee Giamussoau declined to detail the circumstances of Chauvin's confinement, citing privacy, safety and security concerns.
Experts said earlier that Chauvin was likely to be safer in the federal system. It typically houses less-violent inmates, and he'd be less likely to mix with inmates he had arrested or investigated as a Minneapolis police officer.
“It’s dangerous to be an officer in any prison,” former U.S. Attorney Tom Heffelfinger said after Chauvin was sentenced last month. “It’s even more dangerous in state prison because of the nature of the inmate population. There are gangs, for example. And police officers just don’t do well there. Those risks are reduced in a federal prison.”
I feel for him honestly. I feel he was the only one that tried of the 4 officers to help George Floyd.![]()

I feel bad for him also. But he was trained in how to safely restrain a person. He knew that Chauvin wasn't following protocol or training by keeping his knee on George's neck, but as a new cop, he didn't do anything to stop it, in spite of the crowd begging Chauvin to get his knee off his neck, and check his pulse. He had a decision to make--do the right thing and stop Chauvin, or cave to a senior cop for what ever reason he felt he had to at the time. I'm sure that he regrets it, but he made the choice to not intervene in what was happening to George.I feel for him honestly.

I read the end. Why does he have to register as a predatory offender?
