<h3 style="text-align: center;">Details Surrounding The Charges Against Daniel Penny Remain Hazy</h3>
<p>According to <a href="https://abcnews.go.com/US/grand-jury-indicts-daniel-penny-chokehold-death-jordan/story?id=100077897&;utm_source=dlvr.it&;utm_medium=twitter" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><em>ABC News</em></a>, law enforcement confirms that a grand jury recently indicted the former U.S. Marine.</p>
<p>However, the exact charges won&#8217;t be unveiled until the 24-year-old appears in court, which won&#8217;t go down until a later date. While Daniel Penny was initially arrested on a second-degree manslaughter charge, a medical examiner later ruled the matter a <a href="https://dev.theshaderoom.com/jordan-neely-death-subway-strangle-homicide/?_gl=1*1nouc92*_up*MQ..*_ga*NTA5NDI0NzQxLjE2ODY3NzYyNTU.*_ga_V2HX8YP3XL*MTY4Njc3NjI1My4xLjEuMTY4Njc3NjI5Mi4wLjAuMA.." target="_blank" rel="noopener">homicide</a>.</p>

<h3 style="text-align: center;">Here&#8217;s The Rundown On The Death Of Jordan Neely &; Aftermath</h3>
<p>As <em>The Shade Room </em>reported, Daniel Penny <a href="https://dev.theshaderoom.com/nyc-subway-passenger-strangles-homeless-man-to-death/?_gl=1*1nouc92*_up*MQ..*_ga*NTA5NDI0NzQxLjE2ODY3NzYyNTU.*_ga_V2HX8YP3XL*MTY4Njc3NjI1My4xLjEuMTY4Njc3NjI5Mi4wLjAuMA.." target="_blank" rel="noopener">strangled</a> Jordan Neely to death in a New York City subway car on May 1. Neely—a <strong>Michael Jackson</strong> impersonator—was reported to have had an outburst on the subway, and Penny reportedly held him in a chokehold for about 15 minutes until he passed away.</p>
<p>Following public outcry, Daniel eventually released a statement on the matter. However, Jordan&#8217;s family referred to it as &#8220;an admission of guilt&#8221; that also served as a &#8220;character assassination.&#8221;</p>
<p>For context, Daniel Penny called out Jordan Neely&#8217;s &#8220;documented history of violent and erratic behavior&#8221; in his statement. He also said he merely &#8220;acted to protect&#8221; subway passengers after Jordan began &#8220;aggressively threatening&#8221; others.</p>

<p>A week before Neely was laid to rest, Penny was <a href="https://dev.theshaderoom.com/daniel-penny-surrenders-police-jordan-neely/?_gl=1*19swnko*_up*MQ..*_ga*Njc2ODY1NDY4LjE2ODY3NzYyNjU.*_ga_V2HX8YP3XL*MTY4Njc3NjI2NC4xLjEuMTY4Njc3NjI3MS4wLjAuMA.." target="_blank" rel="noopener">charged</a> with manslaughter after turning himself in. He didn&#8217;t enter a plea and was released on $100,000 bond.</p>
