The fatal incident involving Jordan Neely, a 30-year-old homeless man who struggled with mental illness, and Daniel Penny, a former Marine, on a New York City subway has sparked a wave of protests and controversy in recent weeks. After Neely was shouting obscenities and threatening violence on a train, Penny placed him in a chokehold to restrain him from harming anyone. He was pronounced dead when medics arrived.
