Now that Daniel Penny has been acquitted of criminally negligent homicide in the death of homeless "subway rider" Jordan Neely, many people have suggested that Penny should sue his prosecutors. It appears that might actually happen.
Just days after his acquittal for the chokehold death of Jordan Neely, Daniel Penny's lawyers are considering filing a malicious prosecution lawsuit against Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg. Bragg had managed to get an indictment against Penny shortly after the police released him, but he couldn't convince the jury that Penny had committed a crime.
"It was clear that there was a fear that if an arrest wasn't made – and made very quickly – that there might be rioting in the streets, and that that may ultimately look very bad for District Attorney Alvin Bragg," said attorney Steven Raiser. "And if that in fact happened, that could affect his re-election."
Raiser also mentioned that the lawsuit might not only target Bragg but could also include Dr. Jason Graham, New York City's chief medical examiner. Graham had concluded that Neely's death was a homicide by strangulation before the toxicology results were available.
Alvin Bragg is one of the most corrupt lawyers, on par with Letitia James, both of whom have used lawfare against president-elect Donald Trump, and now with Bragg maliciously going after a white man because of the racial differences between Penny and Neely.
Bragg's case against Penny was a travesty and a politically motivated witch-hunt and hopefully Penny will take Bragg to the proverbial cleaners.
