TL;DR Summary

Daniel Penny, a former Marine, will stand trial in October for the death of Jordan Neely, whom he put in a fatal chokehold on a NYC subway train. Penny has pleaded not guilty to second-degree manslaughter and criminally negligent homicide charges. His attorneys claim he was defending himself and others, while prosecutors argue that the chokehold lasted well past the point of Neely's movement. The trial is expected to last between four and six weeks, and a hearing to suppress statements made by Penny has been scheduled for September.
