From the New York Post: Daniel Penny was honored Wednesday by the Marine Corps League at an Iwo Jima Day in Boston — where the former Devil Dog received the prestigious Semper Fidelis achievement award.
Penny — who was acquitted last year of criminally negligent homicide in the May 2023 killing of Jordan Neely on a New York City subway — attended the event with defense attorneys Thomas Kenniff and Steve Raiser, who also took home appreciation plaques.
The league “honored Danny for representing the Esprit De Corps of the Marines, defined by selfless service and sacrifice, when he risked his life by defending the people on that NYC train and we in turn successfully defended Danny from a prosecution that never should have been sought,” Raiser said in an emailed statement.
“We were honored and humbled to be in the same room being honored alongside many veterans of prior wars, including an Iwo Jima veteran and a retired general who served as one of the Tuskegee Airmen,” he continued.
Keniff posted photos from the event, and wrote, “Special day being honored at Iwo Jima Day at the Massachusetts State House today. Privileged to meet surviving WWII veterans and Brig Gen Enoch “Woody” Woodhouse, a member of the legendary Tuskegee Airmen.”
