Man Accused Of Killing Jordan Neely In New York City Releases Statement

Daniel Penny released a statement through his attorneys on Friday in response to a video that went viral this week that showed him placing Jordan Neely in a chokehold on a New York City subway, which later resulted in Neely’s death.

Penny, a 24-year-old college student and Marine Corps. veteran, “was involved in a tragic incident on the NYC Subway, which ended in the death of Jordan Neely,” the statement said.

The statement, released by the law firm of Raiser and Kenniff, P.C., continued:

We would first like to express, on behalf of Daniel Penny, our condolences to those close to Mr. Neely. Mr. Neely had a documented history of violent and erratic behavior, the apparent result of ongoing and untreated mental illness. When Mr. Neely began aggressively threatening Daniel Penny and the other passengers, Daniel, with the help of others, acted to protect themselves, until help arrived. Daniel never intended to harm Mr. Neely and could not have foreseen his untimely death.

For too long, those suffering from mental illness have been treated with indifference. We hope that out of this awful tragedy will come a new commitment by our elected officials to address the mental health crisis on our streets and subways.

Neely, 30, had been arrested a staggering 42 times over the past decade by the New York Police Department.

The New York Daily News reported that Neely was most recently arrested in November 2021 on felony assault charges after being accused of “slugging a 67-year-old female stranger in the face.” The woman reportedly had serious injuries from the attack and Neely was jailed for over a year.

Witnesses said Neely embarked on an aggressive rant in the subway on Monday afternoon, moving erratically and allegedly screaming that he did not care if he went to jail, according to freelance journalist Juan Alberto Vazquez and a report from The New York Post. Penny subdued Neely with the help of at least one other passenger. The New York City medical examiner confirmed on Wednesday that Neely died from a “chokehold” and ruled the incident a “homicide,” although criminal proceedings would be necessary to determine intent or culpability.

Manhattan prosecutors and detectives met to evaluate whether the case should be presented to a grand jury to determine if charges should be introduced, according to a report from The New York Daily News. One police source told the outlet that five passengers contacted 911 before and during the altercation. Callers reported that Neely was issuing threats, as well as “harassing people” and “attacking people,” and said that the Marine was restraining him until police officers could arrive. Another caller claimed that Neely had a “knife or gun,” although officers did not find any weapons on Neely, who first responders were unable to revive.

Hunter Biden’s Quest To Avoid Paying Child Support For His Illegitimate Daughter

The following is the opening satirical monologue from “The Andrew Klavan Show.”

You know, they say that no one is all bad, and sure enough, presidential son Hunter Biden has taken time off from his busy schedule corruptly peddling his father’s political influence to our Chinese Communist enemies, in order to try to get out of paying child support to the daughter he can’t remember fathering off a former stripper, so when they say no one is all bad, what the hell are they talking about?

To recap the history of the case, Hunter originally denied that his daughter was his, saying he had no memory of his sexual encounter with the child’s mother, but could only recall a cocaine-fueled dream of a naked wrestling match with an inflatable sex doll that had magically come to life when she and Hunter fell through the front of a 60inch flatscreen television and ended up as animated characters in an episode of the Ren and Stimpy Adult Party cartoon. A DNA test, however, proved that the little girl was in fact Hunter’s child, although it did also confirm that Hunter was an animated character in Ren and Stimpy.

Hunter then agreed to pay $20 thousand a month in child support, which he planned to take out of the $50 thousand a month he was getting from Ukrainian oligarchs in return for his father sending $75 billion in military aid to Ukraine in order to start World War III in the hope that a globe-destroying nuclear conflict would distract voters from skyrocketing crime and runaway inflation. With those hopes temporarily on hold, however, Hunter says his income has been reduced to whatever few measly millions of dollars he can rake in by selling his worthless paintings for inflated prices to shadowy anonymous buyers in return for an “I’m With Hunter” T-shirt and unspecified political favors from the president of the United States.

At the same time, the little girl’s mother is asking that her daughter be allowed to change her last name to Biden because — and this is a real quote — “the Biden name is now synonymous with being well educated, successful, financially acute, and politically powerful.” Hunter’s lawyers countered that the request was ridiculous when clearly the Biden name is synonymous with corruption, dementia and political malfeasance. When the judge asked the little girl which name she herself would like to have, the four-year-old responded that she wanted to have any name that would allow her to spend trillions of non-existent tax dollars on political payoffs that will ultimately solidify the power of a small cadre of authoritarian internationalists. The child’s comment is believed to have confirmed the results of the DNA test.

President Biden has consistently refused to acknowledge his seventh grandchild as when he recently claimed he only had SIX grandchildren and could not wait to get his trembling, liver-spotted fingers on their soft white flesh while he drew in deep breaths of their silky hair perfumed with the sensual aroma of youth. The children themselves were not available for comment because they were huddled together under the dining room table, trembling in terror and praying God would let them win this game of Funny Grandpa Hide and Seek.

White House Spokesperson Karine Jean Identity Hire was recently asked why on earth the president refused to recognize the illegitimate daughter of his corrupt son’s cocaine-riddled affair with a former stripper. Miss Identity Hire responded, “Speaking as a black female lesbian who was totally given this job for my talent and intelligence, I believe this president doesn’t want to be exposed as the head of a sleazy criminal enterprise that is too busy squeezing Somalians out of every corrupt gangsterocracy on earth to give a rat’s buttock what happens to the American people. Luckily I’m only thinking that to myself and didn’t say it out loud. Or did I?”

Democrats worry that the Hunter court case will expose other areas of corruption in the administration and thereby hobble Democrats in their important work of slaughtering infants 10 minutes before they’re born, cutting the sexual organs off healthy young people, peddling gay pornography in elementary schools, and trying to delegitimize the Supreme Court because it keeps foiling their plans by upholding the Constitution. In the words of Democrat Senator Dick Durbin, “It would be a tragedy for this country if outrage over our petty corruption prevented us from doing real evil.”

Hunter Biden, however, swears he will press on with the case against his daughter, saying, “I will not stop trying to deprive this 4-year-old of financial support because I want to see justice done or possibly because I’m a corrupt dirtbag. I’m so stoned, I can’t remember which.”
