22. Do you really thing that Chauvin could fly under any police department's radar? Ever?

If his conviction stands appeal, he will be in violation of Federal law if he come within reach of a firearm; and no state laws will be able to stand in the BATFE's way in the matter. That charge alone could get him another ten years in Club Fed.

Chauvin is done as a cop, or any other professional as far as that goes. His best hope would be to work for someone like the NRA who may welcome him with open arms. Of course, with a little luck, by the time he gets out of prison, the NRA may be a bad memory.
