Is Daniel Penny a decorated veteran who acted in self-defense, or a reckless vigilante guilty of manslaughter? On December 12th, you are invited to join an exclusive virtual panel event discussing the latest in the Daniel Penny trial and what it means to the wider issue of public safety policy in urban environments.

Between this trial and Wednesday's cold-blooded killing in midtown Manhattan, the eyes of the country are yet again focused on crime in New York City. For decades, the Manhattan Institute has provided insightful commentary and real-world policy leadership on this critical issue—this is your chance to hear the very latest from top voices in the field.
