The felon who allegedly stabbed Derek Chauvin 22 times in an assassination attempt inside an Arizona prison last month had previously worked as an FBI informant.
52-year-old John Turscak has been charged with attempted murder, assault with a dangerous weapon, assault to commit murder, and assault resulting in serious bodily injury after allegedly committing the brutal attack on Chauvin. Turscak had been involved with the Mexican Mafia, and according to charging documents, picked Black Friday (Nov. 24) to target Chauvin as a nod to the Black Lives Matter terror movement.
Interestingly, Turscak became an FBI informant in 1997 to get leniency after nearly a decade of crimes with the Mexican Mafia. He reportedly ratted out the gang and provided information about his former associates to federal authorities.
It is unclear whether or not Turscak continues to work with the deep state and attempted to assasinate Chauvin before the former Minneapolis police officer was able to clear his name after being railroaded in his murder case of the fentanyl-addicted thug George Floyd.
