As RadarOnline recently reported, a campaign to fund Penny’s legal expenses surpassed $2.8 million earlier this month.
The former Marine’s lawyers launched the GiveSendGo campaign at Raiser & Kenniff, P.C., and reads, “Daniel Penny is a twenty-four-year-old college student and decorated Marine veteran, facing a criminal investigation stemming from him protecting individuals on an NYC subway train from an assailant who later died.”
It continued stating that “funds are being raised to pay Mr. Penny’s legal fees incurred from any criminal charges filed and any future civil lawsuits that may arise, as well as expenses related to his defense.”
Penny turned himself over to the police but was released on $100,000 bail the same day.
