TL;DR Summary

Daniel Penny, the 24-year-old Marine who put Jordan Neely in a chokehold on a train in Manhattan resulting in his death, is expected to be charged with second-degree manslaughter. Penny's attorneys have previously said their client was protecting himself and others, and there was no way Penny "could have foreseen" his bid to subdue the supposed perceived threat would turn deadly. Neely's family has been calling for criminal charges. Multiple protests have taken place in Manhattan since Neely's death, with dozens arrested.
