Protests erupt as Daniel Penny trial begins in New York City

Protests erupted outside a New York City courthouse as opening statements began in the trial of Daniel Penny, accused of killing Jordan Neely. Demonstrators chanted for justice, labeling Penny the "subway strangler." Judge Maxwell Wiley instructed jurors to disregard the protests. He allowed some eyewitness statements from the incident to be presented, while excluding parts related to Neely's possible drug use. Penny, who has pleaded not guilty to manslaughter charges, is on trial for Neely's death during a confrontation on a subway train. The trial is expected to last four to six weeks.
