NEW YORK — Marine veteran Daniel Penny's comments to police following the fatal chokehold of Jordan Neely in a New York City subway have been released in new documents.
"He came on and he threw s---, he’s like 'I don’t give a s---, I’m going to go to prison for life' and stuff, so I just came up behind him and put him in a chokehold. He was threatening everybody," a court filing accompanying Penny's indictment quoted him telling officers on May 1.
Penny was charged with second-degree manslaughter and criminally negligent homicide Wednesday in connection with the May 1 chokehold death of Neely aboard a New York City subway train.
