At the Democratic National Convention, Central Park Five criticize Trump for inciting anger during their false imprisonment and emphasize potential dangers of a second Trump term.
At the Democratic National Convention, the Central Park Five, who were falsely accused and imprisoned for the 1989 rape and assault of a jogger, criticized former President Trump for his role in inciting anger during their trial. Trump called for the death penalty for the alleged attackers and maintained their guilt despite their exoneration based on DNA evidence. The men, who served a combined total of 41 years in prison before their convictions were overturned in 2002, emphasized the potential dangers of a second Trump term and the significance of Vice President Kamala Harris' nomination as the first Black woman to hold the position.
