The funds donated to Penny more than doubled within 24 hours, with interest in helping him briefly overwhelming GiveSendGo’s servers.

Penny was part of a group of travelers who restrained Neely when the homeless man began threatening other subway riders on May 1.

An eyewitness recounted Neely expressing his willingness to “take a bullet” or go to jail for killing people on the train.

Video of the altercation shows several individuals working to restrain Neely, with Penny grabbing him in a headlock. When first responders arrived at the scene, Neely had passed out and they were unable to revive him.

Attorneys for Penny have stated that the veteran maintains his innocence, asserting that he was acting in the interests of his own safety and that of his fellow passengers, according to News 12.

Neely had an extensive arrest record and was wanted in connection with a 2021 assault on a 67-year-old woman.

Penny surrendered to authorities on Friday after Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg decided to charge him with second-degree manslaughter. Penny faces up to 15 years in prison if convicted.

He was released from custody on $100,000 cash bail, according to CBS News. His next court appearance is slated for July. Source

Praise God! Let’s continue praying for Daniel Penny. Father be with his legal team so that Daniel may go free.

COME LORD JESUS!

HOW CAN I BE SAVED?

    Oh, $100000 cash bail for a person without a criminal record or reason to flee; yet, repeat offenders are released without bail, sometimes just hours after their arrest. Seems to fall under the uneven balance of scales the LORD detests. Thank God He is in control and tells us not to fret.

    Yes there are many who who support this man and his rightful action but lying MSM would like us to believe that we are alone and outnumbered in our struggle. The righteous are as bold as lions. The powers that shouldn’t be are just trying to scare and intimidate others who might stand up. Prayers for Daniel and his legal team.
