A New York City judge denied Daniel Penny’s motion to dismiss the criminal case against the Marine veteran, who killed Jordan Neely with a chokehold on a subway last May.
“While we disagree with the Court’s decision not to dismiss the indictment, we understand that the legal threshold to continue even an ill-conceived prosecution is very low,” Penny’s attorney, Thomas Kenniff, said in a statement after Penny appeared in court Wednesday.
