Daniel Penny was cleared of criminally negligent homicide in Jordan Neely's 2023 death.
A more serious manslaughter charge was dismissed last week because the jury deadlocked on that count.
Neely, 30 , was a sometime subway performer with a tragic life story: His mother was killed and stuffed in a suitcase when he was a teenager.
The case amplified many American fault lines, including race, politics and crime.
A pathologist hired by the defense said Neely died from the combined effects of K2 , schizophrenia, his struggle and restraint.
The manslaughter charge would have required proving that Penny recklessly caused Neely 's death.
Both charges were felonies and carried the possibility of prison time.
While the criminal trial played out, his father filed a wrongful death suit against Penny .
