Lead Daniel Penny Prosecutor Secured Light Sentence For Thug Who Killed 87-Year-Old In ATM Robbery​


Assistant Manhattan DA Dafna Yoran pushed 'Restorative Justice' for Suspect in Deadly Mugging​


Assistant Manhattan District Attorney Dafna Yoran, who urged jurors at Daniel Penny's subway chokehold trial to convict him of manslaughter on Tuesday, once sought reduced punishment for a Manhattan mugger who killed an 87-year-old over $300 in 2019 under the concept of "restorative justice."

Matthew Lee, 57, snuck up on the victim, a former Lehman College professor named Dr. Young Kun Kim, from behind at a Citibank ATM on Broadway on May 13, 2018, video shows. The fatal blow, a punch to the head from behind, appears to have occurred off-camera.

Kim was hospitalized and later died from his injuries. Police eventually identified Lee as the suspect and arrested him within a week.

Just spent the weekend there. Daughter and son in law just moved into a 2 bedroom apt on Hudson St. in the lower west side. Building from the 1850's.
Had a great time. Walked the Brooklyn Bridge, ate in Little Italy, took in a little of the NYC Marathon, rode the subway a bunch, walked the Hudson River to Little Island and than a few beers at Pier 37......etc.....

Safe and happy....is what I saw.

Daniel Perry verdict any day and UHC CEO gets assassinated on the street. Safe and happy isn’t how those situations would be defined.

A targeted attack on one rich person in a city of 20 million doesn’t make the entire city hand-wringingly unsafe either, at least for people who aren’t wimps

It actually does. Sorry as a former resident of the city, I can speak of its lack of safety. Thank goodness for the Perry’s of the world. City is closer to 8M, but 20M sounds good too. You’re sweet if you believe that was the only safety concern today.

That’s cute, “former resident,” I live there now and work in that exact area. NYC metro area is 20M and maybe higher now, “city proper” population counts are pretty useless unless you think Jacksonville and El Paso are bigger cities than Atlanta

metro area is pretty useless for assessing safety - a few parts of Birmingham vs Birmingham metro represents opposite ends of the crime spectrum

When we're discussing the denominator, 20M is a lot more accurate than 8M considering how many people commute into the city every single day. Midtown is different from other areas (probably safer tbh) but that's separate from the point he was trying to argue

Definitely a safe haven. Random stabbings. Assassins in the loose. Guy on trial for defending people from a psychotic nut job.
