NEW YORK, NEW YORK - MAY 12: Daniel Penny is transported to his arraignment after surrendering to the NYPD at the 5th Precinct on May 12, 2023 in New York City. Penny turned himself in after being charged with 2nd Degree Manslaughter in the chokehold death of Jordan Neely. Neely was killed last week on the F train after being placed in a chokehold at the Broadway-Lafayette station by Penny. Witnesses reported that Neely was acting erratic on the train and screaming about being hungry and tired but had not physically attacked anyone before being placed in the chokehold. Penny was initially taken into custody by the NYPD for questioning and later released. Neely's death was ruled a homicide by the medical examiner's office, days after the incident.

U.S. Marine veteran Daniel Penny was spotted interacting with President Donald Trump at Mar-a-Lago while sitting with former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani at a table.
According to sources who spoke to Page Six, Penny had been at Mar-a-Lago over the weekend and was greeted by Trump while sitting at a table with Giuliani.

An insider told the outlet that the president “was seen at his regular table” at the private Florida club, having a “deep conversation with [Fox News anchor] Bret Baier over dinner.”
They also mentioned that after Trump finished eating, he “got up and worked the room talking with Rudy Giuliani and being chummy with Daniel Penny.”
“Giuliani and Penny were at a large table for 12 and stood up to talk to the commander-in-chief,” the source said. “Trump called [Penny] ‘a good guy who did the right thing.’ The pair shook hands, spoke, and were seen smiling.”
On May 1, 2023, Penny held a homeless man, Jordan Neely, in a fatal chokehold on the New York City subway. Later that month, he turned himself in to New York City police to face a second-degree manslaughter charge.
One month later, a New York City grand jury indicted the veteran for choking Neely. On Dec. 9, 2024, Penny was found not guilty of criminally negligent homicide by a Manhattan jury.
