Lawsuit filed by the Central Park Five alleges that Trump made a false claim during the debate


The Central Park Five, now known as the Exonerated Five, are suing former President Donald Trump for making false and defamatory comments during a presidential debate on ABC News. Trump claimed that the members had killed someone and pleaded guilty to the crime in 1989, when in fact none of them pled guilty and no one was killed during the assault. The men’s attorneys are seeking to correct the record and clear the names of their clients, who were wrongly convicted for a series of assaults in Central Park in 1989. The convictions were later vacated in 2002, and another man confessed to being the true perpetrator. Trump’s comments during the debate and his refusal to engage with one of the Exonerated Five, Yusef Salaam, show a lack of remorse or accountability for his previous statements. The lawsuit alleges that Trump intentionally inflicted emotional distress on the plaintiffs and cast them in a harmful false light. The Exonerated Five are seeking justice for the wrongful accusations and the damage caused to their reputations and lives.
