Original Note:
Lynch:to put to death(as by hanging)by mob action without legal approval or permission: https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/lynch Penny & his accomplices caused Neely's death without trial, so it's not unreasonable to say he was lynched. https://www.cbsnews.com/news/jordan-neely-subway-death-ruled-homicide-chokehold/ Penny, on the other hand, is in no way being lynched. He is legally charged: https://www.cbsnews.com/news/daniel-penny-indicted-chokehold-death-jordan-neely-nyc-subway/
