Forensic pathologist testifies Marine vet's chokehold didn't kill subway madman --Dr Satish Chundru says evidence does not support claim that Penny's chokehold killed Jordan Neely | 21 Nov 2024 | The Marine veteran on trial for the subway chokehold death of Jordan Neely called an expert forensic pathologist to the witness stand Thursday, and he came to a dramatically different conclusion than the New York City Medical Examiner's Office. "The chokehold did not cause the death," Dr. Satish Chundru testified. Daniel Penny, 26, [insanely] faces up to 15 years in prison if convicted on the top charge he faces, manslaughter, for the death of 30-year-old Neely.
