On May 5, lawyers representing a U.S. Marine veteran defended his actions which led to the death of a homeless man aboard an F train in Manhattan last week.

.

Lawyers for 24-year-old Daniel J.

Penny claim that Jordan Neely was "aggressively threatening" people on the train before that fatal attack.

.

NBC reports that representatives for Neely's family accuse Penny of showing no remorse or regard for the life of their loved one.

Daniel Pennyā€™s press release is not an apology nor an expression of regret, Donte Mills and Lennon Edwards, Attorneys representing the family of Jordan Neely, via NBC.

It is a character assassination, and a clear example of why he believed he was entitled to take Jordanā€˜s life, Donte Mills and Lennon Edwards, Attorneys representing the family of Jordan Neely, via NBC.

Lawyers for Penny claim that Neely suffered from mental illness and has a documented history of erratic and violent behavior.

NBC reports that Neely's family argue that Penny was unaware of the homeless man's struggles when he put him in a chokehold.

The truth is, he knew nothing about Jordan's history when he intentionally wrapped his arms around Jordanā€˜s neck, and squeezed and kept squeezing, Donte Mills and Lennon Edwards, Attorneys representing the family of Jordan Neely, via NBC.

He never attempted to help him at all.

In short, his actions on the train, and now his words, show why he needs to be in prison, Donte Mills and Lennon Edwards, Attorneys representing the family of Jordan Neely, via NBC.

NBC reports that Penny was released after being questioned by police and has yet to be charged with any crimes

Russia Calls U.S An ā€˜Enemy Stateā€™, Months After ā€˜No-Anti American Sentimentā€™ Comment

In a recent address to reporters, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov referred to the United States as an ā€œenemy,ā€ signalling a potential hardening of Moscow's rhetoric. While it remains uncertain if this language reflects an official change in policy, Peskov emphasised that only President Vladimir Putin can make such determinations. The Kremlin spokesman's comments were partly in response to Washington's refusal to allow former US Marine, UN weapons inspector, and RT contributor Scott Ritter to travel to St. Petersburg. Peskov described this as ā€œthe latest manifestation of the rabid campaign to prevent US citizens from interacting with the Russian Federation.ā€ He suggested that such a refusal would only be ā€œunderstandableā€ if it were related to Ritter's former intelligence status. ā€œWe are now an enemy country for them ā€“ much like they are for usā€ Peskov stated, noting that travel restrictions on former intelligence officers to hostile countries are common worldwide. #Russia #USA #EnemyState #DmitryPeskov #USRussiaRelations #Geopolitics #InternationalRelations #Kremlin #ForeignPolicy #Putin #USPolitics #AntiAmericanSentiment #GlobalPolitics #Diplomacy #WorldNews ~PR.152~ED.103~
