Read our privacy policy Eleven days after Daniel Penny fatally choked Jordan Neely on a New York City subway train car, the former US Marine was formally charged with second-degree manslaughter. Mr Penny, 24, surrendered to the New York City Police Department’s 5th precinct in Manhattan on 12 May before his brief arraignment in handcuffs inside Manhattan Criminal Court later that afternoon. The story ends with his arms wrapped around Jordan’s neck and choking him to death.” Recommended Eric Adams weakens shelter mandate as New York City anticipates more migrant arrivals after Title 42 expires Attorney Donte Mills asserted that “there was no attack” against subway passengers before Mr Penny grabbed Neely by his neck and pinned him to the floor of the train. In his first public address on Neely’s death, after two dozen people were arrested at protests and vigils urging action from the city, Mayor Eric Adams stated that “Jordan Neely did not deserve to die,” his “life mattered” and his death “never should have happened.” “This should be an inflection point for our city,” said New York City Council speaker Adrienne Adams, “to focus on ensuring New Yorkers have access to the essential services needed to be healthy and safe, and we make the budget investments and policy changes necessary to achieve this.”
