Defense lawyers for Marine veteran Daniel Penny, on trial over the death of homeless black man Jordan Neely, pushed for a mistrial on Thursday, citing testimony from a witness they deemed biased and accusing Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg‘s office of promoting an anti-white narrative. They protested the characterization of Penny as a “White vigilante” and opposed witness Johnny Grima’s courtroom statement labeling Penny a “murderer” and “abuser,” despite neither murder nor domestic abuse being among the charges.

Since you asked, here are some sources:

Both sides said they will discuss the medical examiner’s toxicology report, which found that synthetic cannabinoids were in Neely’s body when he died, according to court documents.

"He just held him, he didn't choke him," Gittings said of Penny.

Same Witness Gittings thanked Penny on Police Bodycam

Witness Rosario literally shaking on camera from fear and describing almost fainting at Neely's behavior

Witnees Schrunk also thankful because "she thought she was gonna die" and thought Neely was acting satanic.

So you've motte-and-baileyed your way from "he was declared to have overdosed before the video went viral" to "synthetic cannibinoids were present in his system but the medical examiner never indicated anything about an OD".

Again, completely intellectually dishonest and not worth my time. Have a good one I guess. You're fucking gross for trying to justify this – let alone intentionally lying about it to do so.
