Just before noon Friday the jury sent a note to Judge TKTK that they were unable to come to a unanimous decision on the charge of manslaughter
The Manhattan jury considering the case of Daniel Penny told a judge Friday that they cannot agree on whether Daniel Penny is guilty of manslaughter, the top charge against him in the death of Jordan Neely.
One option is for the judge to read the jury something called an “Allen Charge”’ urging them to continue trying to reach a consensus. The jury has been deliberating since Tuesday afternoon. When jurors sent their note, Penny was summoned back into the courtroom briefly and left again. Neely’s father sat stoically in the back of the room.
The trial, which began in late October, focused on whether Penny caused Neely’s death by holding him in a chokehold for as long as he did — and whether his actions were justified.
