Daniel Penny manslaughter charges dismissed

[FAUlty Gator]

That was the most serious charge. Other charges pending.

There is still a sliver of justice to be had in NYC

The manslaughter charge was bananas.

Negligent homicide should have been the ceiling to begin with.

I'd say the system worked as intended. However,

The jury couldn't agree but I think any rational adult would agree a 6 minute choke hold would be likely to kill/severely injure someone.

I'd love for someone that thinks 6 minutes (and likely far after the body went limp) is ok? please raise your hand.

A battle won.

Although I wouldn't put it past the DA to charge it a second time.

That was the most serious charge. Other charges pending.

Now end the rest of this sham!
