A <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/theater-professor-reinstated-after-school-suspended-him-for-criticizing-students-who-cried-racism-after-seeing-names-on-a-white-board\/\" title=\"Theater Professor Reinstated After School Suspended Him For Criticizing Students Who Cried Racism After Seeing Names On A White Board\">legal defense fund set<\/a> up on his behalf has already raised more than $2.7 million, which should afford Penny the best defense money can buy. But who are the talented lawyers that have been enlisted to argue his case? The New York City-based law firm designated as the beneficiary of that money, and which seems to have a particular background in DUI defense, isn&#8217;t saying.<\/p>\n<p>Read the fine print on the fundraising site GiveSendGo, and you&#8217;ll see that Penny hasn&#8217;t actually established a legal defense fund. Instead, all donations to Penny are to be &#8220;sent to and managed by the law offices of Raiser &#038; Kenniff, P.C.&#8221; Any funds raised beyond what is needed to cover Penny&#8217;s legal defense &#8220;will be donated to a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/givesendgo-campaign-raises-more-than-400k-for-daniel-penny\/\" title=\"Daniel Penny's GiveSendGo campaign raises over 0K.\">mental health advocacy program<\/a> in New York City.&#8221;<\/p>\n<h3>Where Are the Answers?<\/h3>\n<p>We asked Raiser &#038; Kenniff, which doesn&#8217;t appear to have much experience defending manslaughter charges, whether the firm plans to bring on outside counsel to assist in a trial that is certain to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/daniel-pennys-lawyers-refuse-to-answer-certain-questions\/\" title=\"Daniel Penny's lawyers refuse to answer certain questions.\">attract national media attention<\/a>. We haven&#8217;t heard back. Nor have we gotten a response to our inquiry about what charity will receive the excess funds.<\/p>\n<p>Penny&#8217;s case, and his cause, are important to New York City and to the country at large. We fear this Good Samaritan, unfairly targeted by a corrupt and distorted New York City justice system, may now see his defense torpedoed by avaricious lawyers with little or no experience defending clients against such serious charges and under the glare of such overwhelming media attention. But unlike Penny, those lawyers will get no benefit of the doubt from us. The citizens opening their pocketbooks to fund Penny&#8217;s defense deserve answers.<\/p>\n<h3>Don&#8217;t Let This Go Unanswered<\/h3>\n<p>If you&#8217;re one of the many Americans who have donated to Daniel Penny&#8217;s defense fund, you deserve to know who will be representing him in court. Don&#8217;t let this go unanswered. Demand transparency from Raiser &#038; Kenniff and the legal team behind Penny&#8217;s defense. Together, we can ensure that justice is served for both Penny and the homeless man who lost his life.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Who are the lawyers representing Daniel Penny?<\/li>\n<li>Will Raiser &#038; Kenniff bring on outside counsel for this high-profile case?<\/li>\n<li>What charity will receive the excess funds from Penny&#8217;s defense fund?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>These are the questions that need to be answered.
