Alvin Bragg is terrible person. It’s DESPICABLE to see that Marine veteran Daniel Penny will be charged. He kept the passengers on that subway car SAFE. He should be a FREE MAN!!

From the NY POST:

Daniel Penny — the former Marine who put homeless man Jordan Neely in a deadly chokehold on the subway last week — will surrender to face criminal charges on Friday, law enforcement sources with knowledge of the case said Thursday.

Penny, 24, will turn himself in at the NYPD’s 5th Precinct in Manhattan on Friday morning, high-ranking police sources said. He will be arrested on a criminal complaint charging him with second-degree manslaughter, which could carry a jail term of up to 15 years, according to prosecutors.
