On May 1st, Jordan Neely was choked to death by former marine Daniel Penny on a New York City subway. Penny’s attorneys claim he was protecting passengers from Neely’s “aggressive” behavior – but many believe he took it too far, killing a man who deserved proper mental health care at the time. Neely’s death was ruled as a homicide, but no charges have been filed yet. In this week’s Ripped From the Headlines, Candice and her producer Julie Berke discuss the facts, the polarizing conversations taking place around this event, and what could come next.
