TL;DR Summary

Protesters flooded the NYC subway system to demonstrate against the killing of Jordan Neely, with at least seven people arrested after clashes with police. Manhattan prosecutors are investigating Neely’s death after the city’s medical examiner determined the 30-year-old Michael Jackson impersonator died from the compression against his neck. His death was ruled a homicide. A former US Marine who placed Neely in a fatal chokehold on a New York City subway train has been identified as Daniel Penny. Prosecutors could bring manslaughter charges against Penny, who has hired attorney Thomas Kenniff, a former Republican candidate for Manhattan district attorney.
