Conservative Support Surges for Daniel Penny After Killing of Jordan Neely

Mr. Penny, who has been charged with killing Jordan Neely, has been called a “hero” and a good Samaritan by conservative political figures.

This was a preventable tragedy.

Mr. Neely, who was killed by another subway rider, was on a watch list for a city task force that kept track of the New Yorkers of most concern.

It was all so calm and unhurried. Sometimes, somehow, the fear of violence shakes people more than violence itself.

The Manhattan district attorney’s office will charge Mr. Penny with second-degree manslaughter for choking Mr. Neely, a homeless man, to death.
