Daniel Penny has spent his entire adult life defending Americans. In the service and now as a civilian. That he should be arrested is the only crime that I can see. The prosecutor should realize that this trial is a waste of taxpayer dollars. There is no way in hell a unanimous jury will convict him of anything. The prosecutor may be going forward to placate the natives. (and I mean that in the most pejorative sense possible.)

DeSantis defends fundraising for the ex-Marine who fatally choked Jordan Neely in subway: 'Vets look out for other vets' (msn.com)

Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis of Florida defended ex-Marine Daniel Penny as having done the "right thing" after he fatally choked Jordan Neely on a New York City Subway. Penny, a 24-year-old white man, has been charged with second degree manslaughter after the death of Neely, a 30-year-old Michael Jackson impersonator and dancer who was Black. Penny faces up to 15 years in prison and DeSantis said Tuesday that he shouldn't be prosecuted. "Vets look out for other vets," DeSantis said during a press conference in Lighthouse Point, Florida, referring to his own service in the US Navy. "What we can't have in our society is inmates running the asylum." 
DeSantis shared a fundraising page for Penny in a tweet over the weekend, urging supporters to "stop the Left's pro-criminal agenda and take back the streets for law abiding citizens." The campaign, which will go toward Penny's defense, raised more than $2 million as of mid-day Tuesday. 
Neely, who was homeless, faced mental health struggles after his mother was murdered in 2007, but didn't receive effective treatment and faced dozens of arrests. Penny's lawyers said that Neely was "aggressively threatening" passengers.  Protests ensued in New York City, and the story became national news as it touched on race, homelessness, crime, and mental health treatment. Over the weekend and on Tuesday, DeSantis praised Penny as a "Good Samaritan" for "protecting people."

He should be defended. The outrage over the guy dying is fake. It is just CRT marxists on parade again.
