Roy calls for accountability on Daniel Penny's prosecution: ‘You can't do this to American heroes’ | 2024-12-09 | 2024 | 2024-12 | Republican | House | TX | Chip Roy | R000614 | roy.house.gov | roy | https://roy.house.gov/media/press-releases | scraper | December 9, 2024 WASHINGTON, DC — On Monday, Representative Chip Roy (TX-21) joined Cavuto Coast to Coast on Fox Business to discuss Daniel Penny’s vindication. Key quotes from the interview are below and the interview clip is available here: “The Department of Justice under President Trump should be looking into the civil rights abuses against Daniel Penny… I want our DOJ to hold New York accountable – you can’t do this to American heroes.” “The fact that an American jury stood against the crazy, tyrannical lawlessness of the New York prosecutor's office, and Alvin Bragg, and stood up and said that this man, this American hero, should be let free. God bless. That means things are heading in the right direction.” “It's a great step for justice in America. Let's hope that our Justice Department can now get it right going forward.” Congressman Roy is a former federal prosecutor and former First Assistant Attorney General of Texas. ### | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-07T22:13:55Z |
