This will set the cat among the pigeons…
Days after his acquittal in the chokehold death of Jordan Neely, lawyers for Marine veteran Daniel Penny are floating the possibility of a malicious prosecution lawsuit against Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg, who secured an indictment against their client days after police let him go, then failed to convince a jury he committed a crime.
Penny, 26, was on his way to the gym after class when Neely, 30, barged onto a subway car and started threatening to kill passengers. Penny grabbed him in a headlock and held him as other riders called 911. By the time police arrived, about seven minutes later, Neely had lost consciousness. He never woke up.
“It’s not necessarily even about breaking the law,” attorney Steven Raiser told “Fox & Friends” on Wednesday morning. “It’s blurring ethical boundaries and failing to act in the manner in which you are expected, because of your office.”

It’s about time somebody took these idiots to task for their BS politics and political ‘statements’…
I would sure as hell contribute to a GoFundMe for that lawsuit! The previous one for his defense raised right at $3000000, and he might have a little left over after that one got him acquitted.
NYC and other ‘blue’ cities/states have tromped all over the little folks rights for a long time, and it should come to an end! Maybe this will be part of the fallout from the election too!!!
One hopes!
They were intended to do so as Soros judges and DAs. I have to give him credit for identifying the locations in our civilization for which he can do the most damage, and then acting on that insight.
Another man on another subway did the same identical same, except he was a black man, and he walked free. No charges.
Steve- Good point!
GL- I wasn’t aware of that one!!!
Good luck using a District Attorney in ANY jurisdiction. Unless you can prove beyond any doubt that their behavior was deliberately unethical and criminal you have zero chance at even getting a trial. Such lawsuits are invariably dismissed before they even make it in front of a judge. “Qualifed Immunity” isn’t just for cops. And it’s almost impossible to penetrate.
Dan- Excellent point!
He will be Senator Vance’s guest at the Army-Navy game.
It seems to me that if the problem isn’t worth killing immediately, too many people using “feel good thinking” will second guess you into prison.
