ARREST BRAGG AND YORAN FOR MALICIOUS PROSECUTION

Assistant District Attorney Dafna Yoran repeated the possibility that Penny may not get prison time if he's found guilty. The DA's office has been asking journalists to update their stories throughout the trial to reflect that fact

As Meghan McCain said, "Daniel Penny did nothing wrong, you lunatics."

Daniel Penny is thee victim of malicious prosecution. In a city notorious for bystanders not lifting a finger to come to the aid of a victim being physically assaulted by someone, Penny stepped forth to subdue Jordan Neely who was threatening subway passengers. Penny had no intention of killing Neely, but unfortunately he died in the struggle.

The only reason DA Alvin Bragg filed charges against Penny was because protesters filled the street with 'Justice for Jordan Neely' signs. Had Neely been white, there would have been no protests and no charges would have been filed against Penny.

During the trial, prosecutor Dafna Yoran went the extra mile to secure a conviction that could send a true hero to prison. If she had any decency, she would have refused to prosecute Penny.

Penny is simply the victim of malicious prosecution for which Bragg and Yoran ought to be arrested. It's Bragg and Yoran who should be imprisoned, not Daniel Penny.

Almost impossible to prove. Doesn't mean Trump shouldn't try.
