Daniel Penny's Manslaughter Charge Dropped Amid Jury Deadlock

A New York judge has allowed jurors in Daniel Penny's trial to move past deliberating a manslaughter charge, focusing instead on a lesser charge of criminally negligent homicide, after they were unable to reach a unanimous decision. Penny, a former Marine, was charged following a viral incident where he used a chokehold on Jordan Neely, a homeless Black man, on a subway. The case has sparked political controversy, with differing views on Penny's actions as either self-defense or excessive force.
