Alvin Bragg didn’t trust a grand jury to indict Daniel Penny for the death of Jordan Neely
American Thinker ^ | 13 May, 2023 | Thomas Lifson

In New York City, everybody but the richest few percent rides the subway, and they know how bad things have gotten in the wake Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg treating arrests as inequitable since African Americans are disproportionately arrested.

Jordan Neely died in a hospital after being subdued by Marine Corps veteran Daniel Penny with the help of two other passengers (who have not been charged).

Neely “avoid[ed] prison for allegedly slugging a 67-year-old woman in November 2021 during a psychotic episode” by agreeing to a plea deal. Despite a record of more than forty previous arrests, he was allowed to roam the streets, though he was to stay at Harbor House, where he could receive services. When he left there, Manhattan Supreme Court Justice Ellen Biben signed a warrant for his arrest on February 23.

Perhaps because police officers realize that arresting any black person can cause enormous career grief, Neely evaded arrest, even while riding subways and being visible on the streets. The justice system, in other words, completely failed to protect the public from a deranged, violent man. So, when riding the subway on May first and threatening passengers with violence, and assaulting some by throwing trash, it was only Daniel Penny who first took action to protect himself and fellow passengers.

I thought the guy died on the spot. Good old media...So I’m waiting for the autopsy. The guy was no doubt sick...so let’s wait and see if there was anything in his system that may have killed him

Daniel Penny is almost certainly going to be acquitted of these charges.

If Bragg didn’t think he could even get two thirds of a grand jury (or whatever the standard is in New York) to indict him, there’s no way in hell he can get 12 jurors to convict unanimously.

I’ll bet at least 98% of New York’s residents find the city’s subway system intolerable due to the behavior of the mutants and misfits that make the place their home.

Penny’s legal defense fund has raised $845k so far.

He needs our prayers.

$850K? Yikes! But with a Maoist DA,a Maoist judge and a Manhattan jury he still doesn't stand a chance.

We donated last night. I urge all Freepers to donate to this here’s fund.

Coffeeandcovid.com is a daily read email about such issues. They do what they call a multiplier on occasion. The site owner, a conservative Florida civil rights attorney will note a particularly worthy candidate and ask people to donate amounts ending in $.02 so donations may be tracked.

So DA Bragg is the one actually responsible for Neely’s death.
