Read our privacy policy The family of Jordan Neely, a homeless man who died after being held in a chokehold for minutes on a New York subway car in 2023, filed a lawsuit on Wednesday against his assailant, Daniel Penny. On May 1, 2023, Penny, a former member of the Marine Corps, put Neely in a chokehold for nearly six minutes, after Neely boarded a Manhattan subway train and began shouting aggresively at passengers. Criminal jury is currently deliberating over whether Penny is guilty of homicide and manslaughter for same incident on subway Prosecutors argued in the criminal trial, which began in October, that Penny’s initial attempt to defend his fellow passengers was understandable and “even laudable,” but that the architecture student went too far and used lethal force unnecessarily. Something unique to him.” City medical examiner Dr. Cynthia Harris maintained during her testimony in the trial that Neely died from “compression of the neck.” During an interview with police, later viewed by jurors, Penny told officers he was “not trying to kill the guy.” “I just wanted to keep him from getting to people,” Penny told officers.
