Daniel Penny indicted by N.Y. grand jury in Jordan Neely subway death (msn.com)

New York City grand jurors on Wednesday indicted Daniel Penny in the death of fellow subway rider Jordan Neely.Penny, a 24-year-old Marine veteran, was indicted on a second-degree manslaughter charge in the May 1 chokehold death with the homeless Neely. A representative for Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg declined to comment.
The death last month has been a lightning rod on issues of mental health, crime and race.Lawyers for Neely's family said in a statement that the indictment signaled "the right result for the wrong he committed" during the confrontation on an F train in Manhattan."Daniel Penny did not have the right to be the judge, jury and executioner," the statement said.Lawyers for Penny said the standard of evidence for a grand jury is "very low and there has been no finding of wrongdoing. We’re confident that when a trial jury is tasked with weighing the evidence, they will find Daniel Penny’s actions on that train were fully justified."
“I didn’t see a Black man threatening passengers. I saw a man threatening passengers,” Penny said in a statement on Sunday.The incident evoked memories of the 1984 shooting of 4 black teenagers on a New York City subway by Bernhard Goetz, a white man who feared he was being mugged.Dubbed "The Subway Vigilante" Goetz was acquitted of attempted murder and assault and convicted on a weapons charge that landed him behind bars for eight months.

When will it be ok to fight back against the "noble poor"?
If another "homeless" piece of **** intentionally killed that other total piece of ****,
who would care?

More **** ****. Homeless "advocates" all need to go **** themselves.
Please seat yourself.

If you are a violent criminal, you go free. If you protect yourself from one you go to jail. What the ****.
