[quote=Anonymous]Below are some details of the incident as relayed by the witness (Vazquez) who took the video we've seen. The witness estimated the choke hold lasted 15 minutes. Surely that's not a normal amount of time to place someone in a choke hold. The marine persisted, even after a fellow passenger warned him it could be lethal.

"As the train pulled into the Broadway-Lafayette station, Vazquez started recording. The nearly four-minute video begins with Neely already in a choke hold, which Vazquez estimated lasted 15 minutes. Two other men surround Neely as he is choked with one of them holding Neely by the wrists as Neely flails his arms and legs. After two minutes, a man enters the train to warn the choke hold could be lethal. “If you suffocate him, that’s it,” says the man. “You don’t want to catch a murder charge.” One of the men responds, “He’s not squeezing no more,” and the veteran releases the choke hold. By this time, Neely is unconscious."
