COURTHOUSE,
Nov 4 – Opening
arguments in the New York v.
Daniel Penny trial took place
on November 1, and Inner City
Press was there. From the thread
[Through
the windows,
chants from
down on Centre
Street]
Judge:
There was a witness named Ms.
Rosario at 2:38 pm, I can see
most of it coming in except
the last part where she was
asked by the officer, Did it
look like he was on drugs - I
don't think that will come in
On November 4,
witness Yvette Rosado took the
stand. The prosecutor asked
her about Jordan but would not
use a name, but only
description, for Penny - from
the thread
Rosario: I did
have a video. ADA: Where were
you standing? Rosario: Outside
the car. ADA: Did the white
man's arm ever leave Mr.
Neely's neck? Rosario: Not
that I saw. The police told us
to go. Me and my friend we
took the D train. Jordan was
not moving...
Penny's lawyer:
In the same way, you learned
their names after? Rosario:
The Marine, that's what I
knew. Penny's lawyer: The
prosecutor kept calling him
"The White Man." I'm going to
call him Danny, is that OK?
Rosario: OK.
