Another gross travesty of justice is playing out in a New York City courtroom where former Marine Daniel Penny is being legally lynched over the death of a dangerous vagrant who threatened subway passengers last year.

In the racially-charged case brought by Soros-backed Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg, Penny is being tried on manslaughter charges over the May 2023 incident when he put Jordan Neely in a chokehold onboard an uptown F train after the mentally troubled drug addict menaced riders.

On Friday, the medical examiner who concluded that Neely’s death resulted from the chokehold stood by her ruling even if the deceased would have had enough drugs in his system to “to put down an elephant,” the New York Post reported.

Dr. Cynthia Harris, who performed the autopsy on Neely, told jurors that video footage of the incident convinced her that Penny’s maneuver to neutralize the threat to riders was what killed him and that “no toxicology result could have changed my opinion.”

Her testimony came as she was grilled by the former Marine’s defense attorneys during cross-examination who asked about her initially stating that the cause of death was “inconclusive” on Neely’s death certificate.

She said that she later changed her mind that “asphyxia” was actually the cause of death after she watched the video recorded by a freelance journalist.

“After watching it, I had no further questions about how he was dead,” Harris testified, saying that she concluded even before she received the toxicology report which showed that Neely had K2, a synthetic marijuana drug in his system when he perished.

The medical examiner also said that she would have found that Neely died from Penny’s chokehold even if he had “enough fentanyl in his system to put down an elephant.”

“It’s my medical opinion that there are no alternative reasonable explanations for Mr. Neely’s death,” she told the jury.

A video of Penny’s police interrogation shows him describing the events of the fateful day and how Neely told passengers that he was going to kill them.

“I wasn’t trying to kill the guy. I was just trying to de-escalate the situation,” Penny said in the video that was shown to jurors.

Despite the fact that the subway passengers were legitimately fearful for their lives and that Penny heroically acted to protect them from the potential that Neely could have harmed them, he was vilified by leftists who demanded their pound of white flesh. And after race-baiting Rev. Al Sharpton demanded charges, Bragg’s office complied.

The case is in some ways eerily similar to that of Derek Chauvin, the former Minneapolis police officer who was railroaded for “murder” for the death of career criminal and drug addict George Floyd who perished while resisting arrest, an incident that set off violent race riots and an institutionalized war on whitey and the police.

Whether Neely ends up like Chauvin who was shipped off to prison where he was brutally stabbed remains to be seen, but it’s hard to see how he is going to get a fair trial in a New York system of justice that’s been politicized, especially by Bragg.

Penny faces up to 15 years in prison if convicted.
