The homicide of Jordan Neely, 30-year-old Michael Jackson's imitator has sparked protest in New York after he was choked to death on a subway car on May 1; read to know more about the incident
Daniel Penny, who authorities say is the man who put Jordan Neely into a deadly chokehold, was protecting himself and others at the time, his lawyers said.
The United States Marine who was filmed with a New York City street performer Jordan Neely in a chokehold on a subway car has hired a rival of Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg.
The medical examiner determined that Jordan Neely's cause of death was "compression of neck (chokehold)" and the manner of his death constituted a homicide.
