About this episode

Jury selection begins this Monday for the trial of Daniel Penny, accused of fatally choking Jordan Neely, a homeless man, on a subway train last year. Meanwhile, New Jersey officials announced plans to build 80,000 homes for low- and middle-income families, though some towns argue they lack the space to meet these demands. Plus, the Adams administration will not renew a $300 million contract with BlocPower, a startup managing job training and anti-violence programs. WNYC’s David Brand has the details. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company. See https://pcm.adswizz.com for information about our collection and use of personal data for advertising.
