Grima, his obvious disgust of Penny used on his face like a badge of honor, continuously asserted Penny “murdered” Neely.
He was on a different car and stumbled upon the scene as the train was held at the terminal. He suggested Cent be put on his side so he wouldn’t choke while pushing his back. He after that testified he attempted to step in by pouring water on Neely’s temple to stir the guy– but was rebuffed by Penny.
“I currently felt some means regarding [Dime] I didn’t like him,” Grima claimed. “It’s something like you recognize when you have, like an abuser abusing a person and they’re not attempting to let anyone near the over used.”
As the court began to take an early morning break and folks were waiting to be ushered out, a fan of Jordan Neely– the male who passed away after Dime limited him in a chokehold on an F train– started talking loudly in the gallery, prompting a court officer to inform him to save his discussion for the hallways outside the court room.
It’s come to be clear that this whole trial– in which Dime, 26, deals with up to 15 years behind bars for second-degree homicide over the death of the unhinged homeless guy– is a circus of activism. Justice is simply a second thought.
Besides, Dime was billed 11 days after the event– as prosecution-averse Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg folded amid the outcry from politicians like Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and other advocates that demanded Dime’s scalp in this racially charged case.
