Yes. Absolutely. But would his death prevent something?
It is reasonable that he got stabbed because he is an ex cop who ‘killed’ Fentanyl Floyd. More likely I’d believe.
It would be an honorable moment, living prison rules, to give Chauvin a poke.
I’m not sure how Chauvin dead is any better than him alive?
He should be in PC. If he wasn’t, I may be inclined to ask questions. He is a target in prison. Forever. Even after his exoneration, and when he gets back on the streets, he will be a target.
Wouldn't it prevent an appeal or a re-trial? Assuming he died.
I suppose it could. But what is the value?
I'd think it is more likely to be prison justice over any high level cleanup job.
The only potential value I can see is that if he were actually in on it, then he just knows too much and maybe he was suggesting to someone he'd talk. So as OC says, tying up loose ends. Def could be prison justice but I suspend any hard beliefs it's either one, because there were too many coincidences with his previous affiliation with Floyd, and the exaggerated smirk.
Spez: apostrophe
the value of stopping the appeal by killing the convict is to prevent the media circus of it. the more light shined on it, the more truth comes out. we cannot have that, can we?
Well, that's true, he's a target no matter whether he's inside prison or outside.
