The Manhattan District Attorney’s Office has made the decision to charge Daniel Penny, a 24-year-old former Marine, in connection with the incident on a New York City subway train earlier this month involving a deranged homeless man named Jordan Neely. It is expected that Penny will turn himself in on Friday to face criminal charges. Penny was one of three individuals who helped subdue Neely to protect fellow passengers and is seen in video of the incident keeping Neely in a chokehold.
NBC 4 New York is told this decision to charge Daniel Penny was made by the Manhattan District Attorney’s Office – and will happen without being presented to a grand jury at this time.
A Manhattan District Attorney spokesperson and NYPD spokesperson have not returned requests for what charge or charges might be filed Friday. Penny’s attorney did not returns calls for comment.
Penny’s attorneys have said previously there was no way he “could have foreseen” that his bid to subdue an alleged perceived threat would turn deadly.
Neely’s family says that amounts to a confession.

Having said all that, I’m not understanding the desire of so many Freepers to reflexively defend this Penny guy. I have yet to see any report on this incident that makes it clear that the crazy mutant was a threat that needed to be subdued right there on the spot.
prayers up for our salty hero, Marine Penny!
Dear Father in heaven, please deliver Mr. Penny from all harm meant for him by this lost and evil man Bragg with his secret puppet masters on the godless left. Please Lord, don’t let them sacrifice the young, brave, and true Mr. Penny to their perverse and bloody ‘god,’ molech. surely this outcome would not glorify You in anyway. But in any case, let Your Will be done. And Lord please bless his mother and family with good news this mother’s day. thank You for all Your tender mercies and the Good only You give us. In your Son’s blessed Name, Jesus Christ, i ask. Amen.
Forget about a chokehold. Was there any reason whatsoever for a passenger on that subway car to even put his hands on the mutant at all?
Thirteen percent! It takes only 13% to control the other 87%...
You were there to determine the appropriate actions?
I don’t know how this will turn out, but I don’t want to hear crap from the dead guys family. If they gave a rip, they would have helped him rather than turn him loose to terrorize people.
They are scum……..
Exactamundo!
Amen 🙏🏻!!!!
It depends what reports you heard and how we interpret what we’ve heard.
I heard that he was making threatening statements, such as he wanted to kill people, and was considered a threat and that’s why the guy took him down.
I can believe that because this guy has been arrested 40 plus times, and had an outstanding arrest warrant at the time of his death.
It should all come out in court and then we will all see the details of this incident.
At least 3 passengers who were there at the time felt the need to subdue the guy. Neely also had 42 prior arrests. I wasn’t there, but I’m definitely giving Penny, et al the benefit of the doubt.
yeah, thats the stink test for sure.
If my family treated me that way, I’d disown them! Although, in the case of Jordan Neely, they probably did.
It's actually less than that. It is just a subset of the 13% comprising about 3% of the overall US population accounting for the violent crime among the 13% and essentially holding the rest of the country hostage since no one - including the police - are permitted to reign in the criminal activity of this subset. Even self-defense against this group is forbidden, unless you want to end up in prison.
Absolutely. I believe this will be the key to his defense. Will be very interested to hear the testimony of the other two plus the other individuals in the subway car.
If he is found not guilty the streets and subways could get very interesting in NYC.
The Untouchables
They were hoping he would make a few bucks impersonating Michael Jackson, while all along he was perfecting his GEORGE FLOYD shtick.
Interesting take.
Bragg hates whites. He would have released a black without bail for the same offense.
And the NYPD here is complicit. If they had any honor, they wouldn’t be street muscle for Bragg. Screw the NYPD.
