HuffPost
The man accused of killing Jordan Neely, a homeless Black man, will sit beside the future president and vice president at the Army-Navy game.
Vice President-elect JD Vance announced Friday that his guest at this weekend’s Army-Navy football game will be Daniel Penny, the military veteran acquitted Monday in the subway chokehold killing of Jordan Neely.
Vance and Penny will join President-elect Donald Trump in his suite to watch the game Saturday in Maryland.
“Daniel’s a good guy, and New York’s mob district attorney tried to ruin his life for having a backbone,” Vance wrote on social media.
“I’m grateful he accepted my invitation and hope he’s able to have fun and appreciate how much his fellow citizens admire his courage,” he said.
Neely was homeless and struggling with schizophrenia in May 2023 when he frightened passengers on a subway car, prompting Penny, who is white, to restrain Neely, who is Black.
