In September's presidential debate, Trump falsely claimed that the Central Park Five had pled guilty to the crime they were wrongfully accused of, despite their insistence on innocence throughout their trial.
The lawsuit filed by the Central Park Five against Trump highlights their years of struggle against wrongful conviction, and how his recent statements continue to propagate harmful falsehoods about their case.
Despite being exonerated, the Central Park Five, now known as the Exonerated Five, are once again in a legal fight, this time against a former president who has continued to misrepresent their story.
The Central Park Five's lawsuit accuses Trump of making defamatory and false statements during a debate that not only misrepresent their past but also incite further stigma and harm to their lives.
