Daniel Penny doesn’t deserve a plea deal after being charged with manslaughter in Jordan Neely’s subway chokehold death, Neely’s uncle said Sunday — as he called for the prosecution of the two men seen helping the ex-Marine hold his nephew down.
Christopher Neely made the comments the day after Penny, 24, in an exclusive interview, said that Jordan Neely’s death had nothing to do with race, while noting he did what he thought was right and would act the same way if he was put in a similar situation again.
“He needs to be prosecuted or he will do it again,” Christopher told The Post on Sunday. “It’s a smack in the face for Jordan’s family and the people of New York.”
Christopher said Penny shouldn’t be offered a plea deal by the Manhattan District Attorney’s Office, which has charged him with second-degree manslaughter for the caught-on-camera May 1 confrontation.
“I want this to go to trial,” Christopher said. “He has too much confidence in himself and has to be taught what he did was wrong.”
In his first public comments since the fatal encounter, Penny indicated what transpired wasn’t like “anything I’d experienced before.”
“You know, I live an authentic and genuine life,” Penny told The Post when asked if he would take action again if he were in a similar situation. “And I would — if there was a threat and danger in the present …”
Asked what he would say to the family of Jordan Neely, he replied, “I’m deeply saddened by the loss of life.”

Self-defense is a human right.
Scott Adams is right. Just get away.
Uncle Christopher wouldn’t have had a problem if a black man had defended himself against a white man. The hypocrite racist can bite the dust for all I care.
He should get a medal,key to the city,and a parade.
I agree, the charges should be thrown out!
Give him a place to live. Some guidance maybe.
Make sure he took his meds.
And I wonder, why no one is asking this?
Where are the mother and father?
We need to put this dead thugs uncle down too, apparently.
Eff Christopher Neely. Where was he when his nephew was freely reigning terror on the people of NYC?
Remember “uncle” could be euphemism for “dad” in most of the black “community”.
Wouldn’t advance the narrative, you silly peasant./sarc.
Funny how two different standards of judicial process exist..
plea deal?
the fact he was charged at all is a massive miscarriage of justice, an offense to Heaven—an insult and a warning to all who would trust in the civil society or in a gov’t ruled by law. may God help this good and brave young man.
Screw the uncle. If any of his family truly care he wouldn’t be in the state he was.
Money hungry jerks.
Judging from the interview I saw, he has the courage and the belief in truth.
He isn’t innocent on account of blackness.
He's obviously speaking of his nephew, the decedent, right?
