BREAKING: Penny Jurors Say They're Locked on Top Charge - How Did We Get Here?
Jurors in the Daniel Penny trial informed the judge Friday morning that they're unable to come to an agreement on the top charge. The judge gave them some additional instructions and sent them back to deliberate further.
As I (Bob Hoge, the author) wrote previously, the case highlights everything that is wrong with today’s justice system in too much of America:
It's unsettling, to say the least, that the jury has so far been unable to agree on the fate of Penny, who faces up to 15 years in prison, and it boggles the mind that at least some of the jurors evidently want to put him behind bars. It's a sad reflection of the New York state of mind when its own citizens advocate for its further decline.
I was wondering why this was taking so long. In a normal and sane world it should have taken the jury about 5 minutes to return a verdict of not guilty on all charges.

Who and what is at fault here? It’s not Daniel Penny. You could even argue that it’s not even Jordan Neely.
It’s woke politics and progressive policies. It’s leftist politicians and soft-on-crime, George Soros-backed prosecutors like Manhattan’s Alvin Bragg—whose office filed this abomination—who put those passengers in danger. Who put Penny in a position where he had to use his hard-earned skills to protect his fellow New Yorkers.
What in the hell was Neely doing out on the streets
