The Central Park Five’s Lawsuit Against Donald Trump: What You Need to Know | Latest News on Donald Trump


In the late 1980s, five Black and Latino teenagers known as the Central Park Five were wrongly convicted for the attack and rape of a jogger in New York City. Exonerated in 2002, they recently filed a lawsuit against former President Donald Trump for defamatory comments he made during a televised debate. Trump falsely claimed the teenagers had admitted guilt and harmed the victim, leading to emotional distress. Despite their exoneration, Trump has never apologized for advocating their execution in newspaper ads following the attack.

The lawsuit has been dismissed by Trump’s campaign as frivolous and an attempt to distract from the upcoming election. However, the case could affect Trump’s campaign, particularly among Black and Latino voters. Civil rights activists have criticized Trump’s handling of the Central Park Five case, with Democrat Kamala Harris calling out his past actions during the presidential debate and Democratic National Convention.

Despite the criticism, Trump has maintained strong support among Black voters in polls leading up to the election, while Harris is polling lower than previous Democratic candidates among Latinos. The ongoing legal battle between the Central Park Five and Trump underscores the racial tensions and injustices that persist in the United States justice system.
