Late Friday night Governor DeSantis came out in support of Marine Daniel Penny, the man who defended subway riders from the serial harasser Jordan Neely, who is now being prosecuted by Soros-backed DA Alvin Bragg.

We must defeat the Soros-Funded DAs, stop the Left's pro-criminal agenda, and take back the streets for law abiding citizens. We stand with Good Samaritans like Daniel Penny. Let’s show this Marine… America’s got his back.

DeSantis refers to Penny as a Good Samaritan. That’s exactly right and everyone on the subway that day knows it, which is why so many of them were thankful.
In regard to Penny’s legal defense fund, as of late Saturday it was well over $1.4m.
The following from survivethenews.com.
The Gateway Pundit reported Thursday:
[T]he Soros-funded New York District Attorney is expected to file charges against 24-year-old college student and decorated Marine veteran Daniel Penny in the death of serial felon Jordan Neely.
On Thursday Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg’s office confirmed that Daniel Penny will be charged with manslaughter in the Second Degree.
Bragg’s office decided to press charges against Penny without presenting the charges to a grand jury. Penny turned himself in to authorities on Friday. He was later released after posting a $100,000 bond.
Penny subdued Jordan Neely, a serial felon when he became violent and threatening on the New York subway earlier this month.
A video of Daniel Penny and another man showed that they rendered aid and put Jordan Neely in the recovery position.
Penny’s lawyers said he couldn’t “have foreseen” that subduing Neely would kill him.

This week, a fundraising campaign was launched by Raiser & Kenniff, P.C., a law firm that specializes in criminal defense in New York City, to help pay for Penny’s legal defense after the May 1 incident.
According to Penny’s legal defense team:
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. All contributions are greatly appreciated. Any proceeds collected which exceed those necessary to cover Mr. Penny’s legal defense will be donated to a mental health advocacy program in New York City.
