Daniel Penny
Makes Runway Debut In a Kilt
… After Acquittal of Homicide Charge
Published
Daniel Penny — the man who was found not guilty of choking Jordan Neely to death back in December — made his New York City runway debut Saturday night.
The ex Marine strutted down the runway in a kilt — reportedly to Bonnie Tyler‘s “Holding Out for a Hero” — for a charity event titled “Dressed to Kilt” held on the Upper East Side.

Notably, co-founder Geoffrey Scott Carroll introduced him as a “hero,” applauding him for protecting women, children, and elderly people on the NYC subway in May 2023 when Neely allegedly began threatening them with a knife.
Here’s a refresher … Penny put Neely in a chokehold when he began acting “erratically” on the NYC subway. 30-year-old Neely — who authorities say didn’t have a weapon — died during the altercation, with the medical examiner ruling his death as a result of “compression of neck.”

Penny was charged with second-degree manslaughter and criminally negligent homicide, but was ultimately let off the hook for the lesser charge after the manslaughter charge was dropped.
Penny was described as a “proud New Yorker” at the fashion show … but also has roots in Scotland from the 12th century, according to Carroll.
It makes perfect sense he’d want to be involved — “Dressed to Kilt” is the largest Scottish fashion show in the world and supports Veteran’s causes, such as the Navy Seal Foundation.

Perhaps he will make a new name for himself in the high-fashion world of kilts.
