Because he killed a mentally ill man who was not a serious threat by chocking him from behind without even trying to talk to the man. He continued choking him for over a minute after the man went limp and people were telling him to "stop, you're killing him!" I live in oakland and take public transit all the time. It's dangerous and all kinds of shit like this happens all the time. But, nobody kills the dude. He went to far and I consider it criminal. If the exact same thing would have happened on our local train system (BART), I likely would have stepped in and physically stopped Penny from killing the victim. And, another thing to point out, since you ask how I can say "he's not a hero," Penny himself said he's not a hero. So, take it from him. But, I'd go farther and call him a killer. He didn't know if the man was having problems from a medication or anything. He had absolutely no concern for the man he killed and has not expressed sny remorse. To put it simply, heis not a hero because he had no respect for the value of another man's life. What would Jesus say about it. Jesus would agree with CurtKobain.
The real crime here might be that nobody offered the starving man a sandwich. Everyday I pray God shines his righteous light into the darkened hearts of this world. Today, a shall pray for all of my down-voters. God bless.
No, but there's video and I've seen it. And, I've seen witnesses detailing the situation. I'm familiar with it. But, the crucial part is in the video. The crucial part, from a law and order point of view, what penny did after the man went limp, the train was stopped at the station with doors open, and people said "you are going to kill him," and, "stop." Following that crucial moment, he immediately went from 'good Samaritan' to 'willful homicide.' He chose willfully to kill a person. Homicide.

BS, if a mad man was threatening to kill people on a train and attacking people I’d kill him myself.
He wasnt attacking people and his threats were empty.
Were you there?
