Daniel Penny was found not guilty of criminally negligent homicide for the restraining death of a homeless subway passenger, igniting political reactions and debates surrounding the case.
Critics of Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg expressed their disdain online, including notable figures like Vice President-elect JD Vance and Donald Trump Jr., labeling Bragg's actions unnecessary.
Bragg, reiterating his commitment to following the law, faced harsh backlash stating that his office, and staff, received significant hate and threats amidst the case's highly publicized nature.
With the Penny trial resulting in his not guilty verdict, it exemplifies the polarizing atmosphere surrounding crime and law enforcement, especially within the context of Bragg's progressive policies.
