Jordan Neely, NYC subway rider choked to death, is mourned at Manhattan church

Associated Press  

NEW YORK — In the polarizing wake of Jordan Neely’s chokehold death at the hands of a fellow New York City subway rider, there has been a “distortion of values,” Rev. “They don’t choke him out.” Sharpton added, “What happened to Jordan was a crime and this family shouldn’t have to stand by themselves.” Elected officials including Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and New York Lt. Gov. Neely’s death and Penny’s subsequent arrest divided New Yorkers and people beyond, with some saying Penny, who is white, was too quick to use deadly force on a Black man who posed no real threat, and others saying the 24-year-old U.S. Marine Corps veteran shouldn’t be punished for trying to protect people on the train. Sharpton said that if the races of the men had been reversed, with a white man dying at a Black man’s hands, authorities “would not have let that Black guy leave the precinct that night.” While Neely had a history of disruptive behavior — he had been arrested many times and pleaded guilty this year to assaulting a stranger — friends and relatives said they don’t believe he would have harmed anyone had Penny just left him alone.
