U.S. Marine Veteran Faces Charges for Fatally Choking a Man on New York Subway

A former U.S. Marine Corps veteran, Daniel Penny, aged 24, is set to face legal repercussions for the tragic death of a homeless Black man on a subway station in New York. The incident involved Penny applying a fatal chokehold, which resulted in the demise of Jordan Neely. The charges brought against Penny include second-degree manslaughter.

Second-Degree Manslaughter 

Second-degree manslaughter is a serious criminal charge that encompasses the unlawful killing of another individual, albeit without malice aforethought. The classification of manslaughter in the second degree suggests that the act was not premeditated but still resulted in someone's death due to reckless behavior or negligence.

In this case, the charges against Daniel Penny indicate that his actions, specifically the chokehold he employed on Jordan Neely, were deemed to be reckless and ultimately led to Neely's tragic demise. The legal process will seek to establish the extent of Penny's culpability and assign appropriate consequences.
