Who is Daniel Penny?
A former US Marine appeared in court to face manslaughter charges after fatally asphyxiating a tube passenger. Jordan Neely, 30, was found dead on May 1 and Daniel Penny, 24, is suspected as the cause. He did not plead guilty. His lawyers said he could not have known that trying to restrain Mr. Neely would result in his death. The destitute Mr. Neely was held captive in the train carriage for several minutes while being pinned to the ground. Witnesses claimed that he had been yelling at other passengers and begging for cash.
Later, Mr. Neely was discovered unconscious in the carriage. He was transported to the hospital, where doctors pronounced him dead. The city medical examiner determined that he had a compressed neck, which led to his death. Mr. Penny, who had his hands behind his back, made an official appearance in Manhattan Criminal Court on Friday. He was later released on a $100,000 ($80,000) cash bond. The judge ordered him to appear in court one more time on July 17 or else a warrant will be issued for his arrest. In addition to handing over his passport, he must also request permission to cross state lines. Mr. Penny was questioned by the police on the day Mr. Neely passed away and then let him go.
Mr. Penny showed up at a Manhattan police station Friday morning in a black van to turn himself in. He did not answer or respond to any of the questions from the reporters gathered outside as he wore a black suit and white shirt. Thomas Kenniff, the man’s lawyer, said his client had “her head held high” and had volunteered “with the kind of dignity and integrity that is characteristic of his history of service to this grateful nation.” If he is convicted of a second degree manslaughter charge, he could spend up to 15 years behind bars. To be convicted of that crime under New York law, a jury must find that Mr. Penny acted recklessly and thereby increased the risk of death beyond a reasonable doubt.
