Inmate who stabbed Derek Chauvin 22 times is charged with attempted murder
Briefly

John Turscak stabbed Chauvin 22 times at the Federal Correctional Institution in Tucson and said he would have killed Chauvin had correctional officers not responded so quickly, federal prosecutors said.
Turscak told FBI agents interviewing him after the assault that he attacked Chauvin on Black Friday as a symbolic connection to the Black Lives Matter movement, which garnered widespread support in the wake of Floyd's death, and the 'Black Hand' symbol associated with the Mexican Mafia, prosecutors said.
