NYC straphanger who killed homeless man after he harassed subway riders and punched him twice in the face will NOT face manslaughter charge - the same day Daniel Penny pleaded not guilty in strikingly similar case
2023-06-29
[Daily Mail, where America gets its news] The difference between Manhattan and Brooklyn, or perhaps between Mr. Penny and Mr. Williams.
  • Jordan Williams, 20, allegedly pulled out a pocket knife and stabbed Devictor Ouedraogo , 36, on a northbound J train in Williamsburg, Brooklyn on June 12

  • The case echoes that of black homeless man Jordan Neely, 30, who was killed on the F-train on May 1 by 24-year-old ex-Marine Daniel Penny

  • However, unlike Penny, Williams will not face trial after the charges were dismissed by the Brooklyn District Attorney's office

Thanks, tw! Interesting to see the article was not a one-off.
Today we learned that the Daily Mail has a rather nice search feature.

#7  Pity we are devolving into a semi-segregationist cultural divide. The Chicago Jesus/Jojo Puppet Show and acolytes created the false narratives for political gain, but now find un-leashed feral youth a corrosive time-bomb. The crime-wave/dystopian landscape is hollowing out the urban core power-centers they need for their base tofeel their policies are working. Penny is a remnant of the rapidly evaporating, traditional American who has not yet fled places in America like NYC that are becoming all too much like Johannesburg.

#4  On reading the headline, a Cynical Person might jump to the conclusion that race was somehow involved. Hard to believe after going through the Civil Rights era, but here we are.

Re Skid's link in #2: Surprising to see an article with that tone in the DM. Is GCHQ trying to foment a color revolution here in America?

#2  DAVID MARCUS: What do Donald Trump, subway Marine Daniel Penny and Hunter Biden all have in common? They're damning proof America's justice system has been corrupted by political bias. I fear we're now no better than a banana republic
