From The Daily Mail, “Daniel Penny trial bombshell: Homeless man still had a pulse after chokehold that prosecutors say killed him”:

Two police officers confirmed that Neely still had a pulse when they arrived.

‘I got a pulse,’ one said. A second police officer confirmed that he too felt a pulse.

Neely was unconscious, lying on the subway car floor.

When asked how Neely ended up there, Penny replied: ‘I put him out.’

Despite initially detecting a pulse, they issued Narcan – the drug used to reverse opioid overdoses – to Neely – and started CPR at 2.38pm.

Paramedics from Northwell Health arrived on the train at 2.48pm – 15 minutes after the police.

At 3.13pm – almost 45 minutes after police first arrived – Neely was still on the train, by then surrounded by paramedics. The bodycam released by the court today ends then.

He was not pronounced dead until he arrived at Lenox Health Hospital in Greenwich Village later that afternoon.

Among witnesses on the first day of evidence was an NYPD Sergeant who testified that none of his team performed mouth-to-mouth on Neely because he was a ‘drug user’.

‘He seemed to be a drug user.. he was an apparent drug user. He was very dirty. I didn’t want them to get… hepatitis.

‘If he did wake up he would have been vomiting. I didn’t want my officers to do that.

‘He was filthy. He looked like a homeless individual. You have to protect your officer,

‘I wouldn’t want my officer to get sick if the person throws up,’ he said.

The prosecutor’s argument is a comical disgrace.

From ABC News, “Daniel Penny tells police ‘I put him out’ in never-before-seen video as subway chokehold trial gets underway”:

Prosecutors said Daniel Penny may be an “honorable veteran” and “nice young man” but he used too much force for too long and was reckless with Jordan Neely’s life because “he didn’t recognize his humanity,” as the highly publicized trial over Neely’s death on a New York City subway train got underway Friday. The defense, meanwhile, argued in opening statements that the former Marine stood up to “protect thy neighbor.”

Penny is charged with manslaughter and negligent homicide in the May 2023 death of Neely, a homeless man who was acting erratically on a subway car.

“He was aware of the risk his actions would kill Mr. Neely and did it anyway,” Assistant District Attorney Dafna Yoran said of Penny in her opening statement.

“Jordan Neely took his last breaths on the dirty floor of an uptown F train,” she told a rapt jury.

Never in a million years would this case have went to trial if Penny was black and Neely was white.
