MINNEAPOLIS — Derek Chauvin , the former Minneapolis police officer convicted of killing George Floyd , was transferred to a federal prison in Texas almost nine months after he was stabbed in a different facility, the federal Bureau of Prisons told The Associated Press on Tuesday. Chauvin, 47, is now housed at the Federal Correctional Institution in Big Spring , a low-security prison.
Alexander Kueng, who is Black, knelt on Floyd’s back, and Tou Thao, who is Hmong American, kept bystanders from intervening during the 9 1/2-minute restraint. Kueng and Thao are both set to be released in 2025. Kueng is detained at a federal prison in Ohio and Thao at a facility in Kentucky, according to Bureau of Prisons records. The killing, captured on bystander video, sparked protests in 2020 as part of a worldwide reckoning over racial injustice.
