After the May 2023 subway incident involving Marine Corps veteran Daniel Penny putting Jordan Neely, a mentally ill homeless man with a lengthy criminal history, in a after Neely acted threateningly towards other passengers, it was hard to envision any scenario where the then-24-year-old Penny would get a fair trial.
He was hit with second-degree manslaughter and criminally negligent homicide charges, which were brought roughly a week after everything happened by notoriously woke Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg. Democrat politicos in the Big Apple including Squad leader and Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez were whipping angry, race-baiting woketivists into a frenzy, inciting subway chaos and panic at a time when cooler heads needed to prevail.
Penny would also have to face a New York City jury who could have been prejudiced against him in the Democrat-run city and/or thanks to the state’s infamously woke media machine.
