Maybe someone wants big cities to turn to shit. Maybe they will buy up cheap real estate and then put the police back, raising land values.
The political reason for prosecuting him is obvious; the creep bothering everyone was black, and the guy is white.
Top Forensic Pathologist Testifies at Daniel Penny’s Trial: ‘Chokehold Did NOT Cause the Death’
A leading forensic pathologist has testified for the defense during U.S. Marine veteran Daniel Penny’s trial in New York.
26-year-old Penny is accused of killing Jordan Neely on the New York City subway in 2023.
Neely was reportedly making violent death threats toward fellow subway passengers.
Penny and other passengers stepped in to protect other subway riders as Neely became increasingly erratic.
In an effort to subdue Neely, Penny placed him in a chokehold.
Neely, a homeless drug addict, later died.
Despite police saying Neely was still alive when they arrived, and confirming that officers refused to give him CPR, prosecutors charged Penny with manslaughter.
Penny now faces up to 15 years in prison if convicted on the top charge he faces, manslaughter, for the death of 30-year-old Neely.
However, on Thursday, forensic pathologist Dr. Satish Chundru took the witness stand and offered a dramatically different conclusion than the New York City Medical Examiner’s Office.
“The chokehold did not cause the death,” Dr. Chundru testified.
Chundru is a former Miami-area medical examiner who now runs a private practice in Texas conducting autopsies in a half-dozen counties.
The top expert told the court that he did not believe an air choke caused Neely’s unconsciousness and, therefore, did not cause his death.
Chundru said he found the cause of death to be “the combined effects of sickle cell crisis, the schizophrenia, the struggle and restraint, and the synthetic marijuana.”

That means one or more jurors are holding firm in a Seven Angry 'They' scenario, I bet.
And father of the guy he didn't even kill is suing him already.
If this ends in a hung Jury, and they decide to re-try, maybe Trump can pardon him. Or is this a state crime with no federal jurisdiction?
Governor of whatever state could pardon. That undercuts the DA though if on the same side and wasted a bunch of time. So not likely unless it's the random R governor against D state DA.
This is so absolutely fucking disgusting.
In NY? He's white. 'Victim' was schizo POC.
With over 40 convictions.
Manslaughter charge dismissed; jury told to now deliberate on second, lesser charge
That is not good, as the lesser charge is more certain of a conviction. All charges should be dismissed.
They were told to deliberate on the first before the second. A set up.

At the same time, i belive it was last week, that crazy homeless dude that pushed an elderly man onto the NYC subway tracks, resulting in that mans death, has had his sentence reduced recently and will be released on some arcane law that's never been used, by the very same corrupt prosecutor that is trying to lynch Penny for doing the right thing.
Complete inversion of Penny's incident
Neely was arrested 42 times across the last decade, with his most recent bust in November 2021 for slugging a 67-year-old female stranger in the face as she exited a subway station in the East Village, cops said.
The senior citizen suffered a broken nose and fractured orbital bone when she was knocked to the sidewalk, along with swelling and “substantial” head pain after hitting the ground.
Neely eventually pleaded to felony assault and received 15 months in an alternative-to-incarceration program that, if completed, would have allowed him to plead to misdemeanor assault and get a conditional discharge.
But a warrant was issued for his arrest on Feb. 23, when he skipped a court compliance court date where a judge was to be updated on whether he was meeting all the requirements of the program.
On June 27, 2019, Neely was arrested for punching a 64-year-old man in the face during a fight in a Greenwich Village subway station, cops said.
And he was busted in August 2015 for attempted kidnapping after he was seen dragging a 7-year-old girl down an Inwood street. He pled guilty to endangering the welfare of a child and was sentenced to four months in jail. ...
The post reads in part:
Used to be all cool, dancing to MJ in the subway train, but as of late he’s become a maniac.
Sometime in late Spring/early Summer I saw him in the train, his radio fucked up and he was angry as fuck, cursing and badmouthing commuters screaming “What the fuck are you looking at? Don’t fucking look at me!
Ever since that day he’s just been a scary dude to me.
A post on Reddit from nine years ago warns the public about #JordanNeely. The man’s death after being restrained by passengers has ignited BLM rage because one of the passengers involved appears to be white.
The 66-year-old woman, who chose to remain anonymous, told the New York Post that Neely's erratic behavior soon took a turn for the worse and he began shouting at other passengers.
"He said, 'I don't care. I'll take a bullet, I'll go to jail' because he would kill people on the train," she recalled. "He said, 'I would kill a motherf*cker. I don't care. I'll take a bullet. I'll go to jail'."
She went on to explain how Penny reacted in the situation, noting that he "did not stand up, did not engage with the gentleman. He said not a word. It was all Mr. Neely that was … threatening the passengers."
