@#38 ... But, what has fmr Pres Trump said after they were exonerated? ...

'Central Park 5' members file defamation lawsuit against Donald Trump over comments during ABC News debate
abcnews.go.com

... Members of the "Central Park Five" filed a defamation suit against former President Donald Trump on Monday, accusing him of spreading "false, misleading and defamatory" statements about their 1989 case during the Sept. 10 ABC News presidential debate, according to a new court filing. ...

During the debate, Trump was responding to a statement from Vice President Kamala Harris in which she revisited his full-page ad in The New York Times in the wake of the incident that called for the execution of the Central Park Five when he said the following: "[T]hey come up with things like what she just said going back many, many years when a lot of people including Mayor [Michael] Bloomberg agreed with me on the Central Park Five. They admitted -- they said, they pled guilty. And I said, well, if they pled guilty they badly hurt a person, killed a person ultimately. And if they pled guilty -- then they pled we're not guilty."

The lawsuit points out that Trump's statements were false in multiple respects -- noting none of the members of the Central Park Five ever entered guilty pleas in the case, none of the victims of the Central Park assaults were killed, and the mayor at the time of the assaults was Ed Koch -- who did not agree with Trump's position in the full-page ad.

Interesting.


@#34 ... Then how could he be calling for their deaths when they are no murderers ...

Simple.

At the time he was calling out for their execution, they had not yet been exonerated.

But after they had been exonerated ....

... Which is why it is a nonsense case. ...

But, what has fmr Pres Trump said after they were exonerated?

imo, that is the basis of this case.

Much like fmr Pres Trump being unable to, I'll be blunt, shut up.

Donald Trump Can't Keep His Mouth Shut. It's Getting Him in Trouble. (2023)
www.motherjones.com

... Donald Trump was summoned to appear Tuesday before a Manhattan judge, who warned the former president that he could face additional legal trouble if he publicly rants about the evidence against him in his criminal fraud case"a recurring problem during the E. Jean Carroll sexual assault lawsuit earlier this month. Trump's virtual appearance was brief, and New York judge Juan Merchan spoke to him gently. But the message was clear: Do not try to mess with this trial.

The Tuesday hearing came one day after Carroll"who recently won a federal civil judgment against Trump for sexual assault and defamation -- sought additional damages from Trump over comments he made about her on CNN following that verdict. And on Tuesday morning, hours before his lecture from Merchan, Trump took to his social media platform, Truth Social, to repeat his attacks on Carroll and to complain that the sexual assault trial had been unfair. ...

You cannot give as much as you, supposedly, take?

That's a really impotent reply, eberly.

Of all the posters here, I expected more from you.

Much more.

Thank you for constantly replying to me, eberly!

Our host, no doubt, appreciates the traffic.

(Did you really spend the day thinking about just the perfect retort to me? Really? That's delicious, eberly)

Twoothy would literally suck any of those guys off to be friends.

If Hans ever went after Twoothy....he'd leave. He couldn't handle it.
