- A former prosecutor at the center of New York's notorious Central Park Five rape case faces strong backlash, after the release of a hard-hitting Netflix series. Linda Fairstein stepped down from the boards of a college and a non-profit charity. She was the top Manhattan sex crimes prosecutor when five teenagers were wrongfully convicted following the 1989 attack on a female jogger. Michelle Miller reports.

Reopen all the cases that she was involved in, especially relating to black men. Shes probably done it before.
Exactly
I agree
Agreed
Most definitely
Let's do the same for Kamala Harris. She holds the California state record for putting black people behind bars.
The fact that an ACTUAL Rapist/Killer has more compassion about five innocent kids in jail than our own prosecutor/Police Officer does says a'lot about our system. It needs to be fixed asap!
rapists support each other; that's always been the case
Reek yeah but those 5 are not rapist tho are they u stupid
@@ta8258 if they aren't rapists, then why were they convicted?
They were not innocent. They were at the park attacking several people, including the jogger.
@@ta8258 They were attacking her. They just did not get it up.
What about the cops who interrogated these kids?! Despicable
Reek that’s not doing their duty in any way
@@yokootersmellfunky yes they did

@@JonasRidesF32 Lol i doubt it...
Jas She deserves the time the did, the time they spent worrying about their lives, plus all of the hurt they had in themselves by 100x!!
I think she needs to have all her past cases looked into. What if there are other innocent people in jail because of her?
Best thing I have heard
Exactly
🙏🏻 thank u. Finally someone with some sense
Yes. It will take awhile, but there should be a taskforce assigned to review all her cases. Especially the cases involving Black defendants.
@@mack1348
And especially other minorities/poc too.
The profit Linda made off her books sales should have all been turned over to the Central Park men for their years of suffering.
I agree. Imagine having the nerve to sell children's books even after preying on a group of innocent kids and ruining their childhoods in the most callous way.

Damn ,
The individual that was guilty felt so bad for the kids and gave himself up ?
A criminal has to feel sympathy for the monstrous actions of the law enforcement agents ?
*Speechless*
He was already doing life it's not like anything worse was going to happen It's just good he finally came forward
@@sonnyhughes534
Still , he didn't have too .
I doubt he felt bad for these kids probably has another motive
@@onewildandcrazyguy9213 did you watch the series? I watched a couple of videos after I had finished When They See Us, and the Central Park Five kept retelling the story of the actual rapist meeting Korey Wise after 13 years in prison, and wondering to himself how Korey was still there.
@@isticarlos that means nothing he could be lying. I agree with vacating the sentence. I don't find Mattias Reyes credible. He did rape the woman that doesn't mean he was the only one involved in the assault. If you look at this guy's history it is hard to believe that he had a crisis of conscience. There is nothing in this guy's history to support that
She said the show "...depicts me in a fictionalised version of events, In a grossly and maliciously inaccurate manner."
This was how she treated those kids, and yet here she is helping sorry for herself.
The irony
kids can be rapists too, you know. It doesn't make them innocent
@mimi 1580 they're guilty
altGoolam .....and if she really believes that she should sue. Let’s hear it all in open court.
Reek....seek medical help!
This woman deserves every bad things she gets, everything.
Raped and left at central park by 5 teenagers
Daniel Bridges you idiot, he/she isn’t talking about the victim, they’re talking about Fairstein
She needs to be incarcerated!!
After all of these years she still has the nerve to say she was portrayed is the worst way and has nothing to apologize for. Pure evil
@@jib7706 I think the comment was meant to be what Daniel thinks the prosecutor deserves
She needs to be indicted

She should be in jail along with the rest of the corrupt.
Including Donald trump

@@reek4062 your the one who thinks the confessed Ha your so ignorant they were beatin to confess
3:02 "...in a fictionalized version of events, in a grossly and maliciously innacurate manner" That is exactly how she fabricated their conviction.
Cough cough... you guys interviewed this evil women on this very show a couple years ago about her books. You did not ask one single question about the Central Park 5 case.
waveali what does that have to do with how she handled the case? Is it the media’s fault that Linda Fairstein knowingly lied and manipulated these innocent boys into admitting this crime. I’m sure that you have an agenda to discredit the media but the facts still remain. You people are getting weirder and weirder by the day...wtf
FACTS!!! Cbs is full of doodoo
Sometimes the interviewers are made to sign documents agreeing not to talk about certain things during an interview. I certainly wouldn't put that past Linda Fairstein as she worked in litigation.
Buckwheat exactly.
Yup!!!!
These 5 kids at the time had their childhood and most of their adult life pretty much stolen from them
Ty Breaker Just their childhood, they got out in their early 20’s except korey who got out at about 30. Still very sad of course. No amount of money will ever give them those years that were taken away from them back unfortunately
Kavita8 why comment that? what’s wrong with you?
@Kavita8 society will never get better until we can weed out people that make stupid uneducated comments like yours
Kavita8 sounds like even though these kids were innocent, you find comfort by justifying their imprisonment based on your unfounded statistics.. That’s very sick.
You are a stuck in the mindset of cognitive dissonance behavior and that’s a shame because with that psychosis you’ll never give value to facts and truths. Shame on you..!!!
Kavita8 yeah I trust white people on locking up black people fairly in the 80’s and 90’s lmao what an idiot.
I just want to say: God sees everything ☝🏼🤲🏻
Fa reeelz! Judgement Day finna be BRUTAL! Lord have mercy.
Im Glad that God Will rewards these men for enduring having suffered so many injustices ... Man is unjust and imperfect, but God is not and he will judge with honesty.
Reek king 👑
God saw everything but what did he d about it?
I know it's comforting believing this superior entity, but there's no such thing as God.
I cried the whole time watching the show😭😭
Me2😭💔
I was fuming with anger.
Imagine if Trump would have got his way. 5 boys executed for nothing
Exactly. It's so scary to even think about 😯
He would've been accountable for each and every one of those lives taken.
So scary, so sad.
Lawd. Thank God they didn’t get executed. 🙌🏽
And we let that mf get elected for PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES
They need to reopen every case she EVER prosecuted the dirty worm!
Just imagne how many others were probably unjustly convicted by her? The state of NY will be paying billions in lawsuits.
Kelp Farming even tho they have been hive 41 million$ by the state of New York money can’t buy back time
Debby Zabriskie EXACTLY!!!
CxrtifiedAnt- 41 million is nothing but an insult to injury.
@Kelp Farming really? So someone actually sending 5 innocent boys to jail and made them lie isn't a nasty person? She is evil. I can't believe you don't see her ways as nasty. yall good yes.
This “prosecutor” needs her license revoked in all states, and should serve time herself for what she did, and also maybe have her head checked for making up stories in her head, as a matter of everyone involved in this case!
If was a black woman she wud hve been charged and jail . So unfair
Remember the elderly black judge they literally dragged out of the courtroom and off to jail? Yep, you’re right.
Str8 facts
True.
lol
Linda’s just mad, that her darkness came to light. Sick woman!!!!
Literally
Lani Rivera completely agree, but I think she’s humiliated as well for being such a scumbag. Just wait until Trump tweets or says his opinion on this. This will have legs for awhile and Linda will see her life further destroyed by Trumps support. This is the scourge of America law....she should be, as all attorneys should be, held responsible for her gross actions.

She hasn’t because she can’t prove the depiction is wrong
I agree.

Droopy neck devil.
If they had been guilty their conviction wouldn't have been overturned.

@@zezecoccocwhite3623 She was desperate for a quick result
You don't know wat anyone faces when they hit there pillow 🤔
Idgaf about her coming “under fire” online, she needs to be under INVESTIGATION in REAL LIFE.
All of her cases should be reopened to re-evaluate the tactics she did to gain a conviction. Because her way of gathering evidence to fit her narrative of the crime is still happening today, across this nation.
Can you imagine how many innocent people she put away! I hope they do investigate. She needs to be locked up!
@Tax-bitchass biyatch even if they were "mugging" do you really think it's fair to be convicted of rape? Think
Tax-bitchass biyatch Mugging is not the same as rape. You know they have been exonerated because another man confessed and DNA evidence, right? You might be the idiot!
Truth!
I wish when things didn't add up, she dedicated all that energy in finding the REAL criminal instead of framing innocent kids..
Can't blame only her. How about the government and justice system of Jim Crow ?
Exactly
The whole case looked like swis cheese
It seems like Netflix does a better job at criminal investigations than a lot of these police departments do ...if I'm not mistaken they've had a few series that have either got attention to set free people that were wrongly convicted or get them A reduced sentence
You are not mistaken at all. Unfortunately we live in a society with overzealous and malicious prosecutors who will do anything to gain some fame--including putting innocent people in prison for life. .
JaeKiDd 1k subs I will restart channel up again true

Now that these men are, I guess, millionaires they can be sugar daddies for some lucky sugar babies.
Maybe Netflix can produce a cheerful upbeat kinda reality show that follows these freed black men on their journey as they court and date young women in their early 20s and hopefully make a hook-up and maybe a marriage and then make babies.
And then I can sit back and laugh as I watch their "supporters" suddenly turn on them, go full on ageist and call them "dirty men" and treat them like rapists because "He can be her dad!"
Typical every day Ageism.
You know how two faced society is.
And hysterical!
Lisa R call your therapist ASAP
My heart goes out to Korey Wise! The actor who played that role deserves an Oscar
Cedric Harper I think so too
yess Jharrel Jerome had my heart hurting. 💔
Agreed! Haven't been the same since I watched the series..so devastating but outstanding performances
Had me in tears
stg
Shouldn’t there be criminal charges filed against her for this? She broke the law
Yes.
I do NOT care about that woman's feelings. Her slap on the wrist should be a slap on the face, in prison. She should be forced to pay for HER crimes against humanity.
She mad about her looking like a monster on the show when she pinned a whole case on 5 innocent teens🥴🤦♂️
If they had been innocent they wouldn't have been convicted
@@reek4062
Sure, but if white people have been convicted even false crimes or felony, you white people will be up in your arms to protect your own.
This is why you have been hated all over the world.
This is why
Reek you truly think they did this? A couple of 14/15 year olds who never gotten into any police contact in their life raped a woman and severly beat her. Didnt get any blood on their clothes and also got sperm in her that wasnt any of theirs, but of a serial rapist and murderer who confessed and actually knew details about the crime whereas all the kids had most of it wrong. From saying a knife was used and later (perhaps after a talk?) change their statement saying it was a rock (cant have someone talking about a knife when she dont got no cuts on her) etc. why are you so set on blaming these particular people when ther is NO EVIDENCE against them except for their own inconsistent statements that didnt even match the facts? Like im legit curious why you believe that?
@@reek4062 ah..And so we meet again. The last comment of yours I saw you were advocating for the death of a 5 yr old Syrian girl and now here you are again spitting crap. Idiot
@Hymat Vgytab they were guilty
What the heck is $41 mil for what these men been through.
Which had to be split between them all and the attorney.....DAM SHAME
What's worse is they had to pay there Attorneys out of that money also which the State should of done,I seen 1 white man get more than 41 million for wrongful convictions but 5 black men, they really didnt want to pay them.
Yes i believe so. Its nuttin.
They should have gotten that a piece, atleast 50 million for each one, that still doesnt erase the physical and mental abuse they suffered, money cant change that.
💯💯💯
She should serve prison time! She lied and purposely fixed the case along with those disgraceful cops. Those demons need to pay!!!!!
its sad how there are so many stories that go unnoticed like this story until some documentary or series comes up
When you are more concerned about your career than justice you are in the wrong profession.
That's most cops
When your morals are that messed up you need to self evaluate and check yourself, normally I'm compassionate but have only contempt for her. Her actions and that of the police dept and people involved is a certain kind of psychopathic evil!
I worked as a Court Reporter for over 12 years!! A lot of the time, prosecutors are more concerned with wrapping a case up than, who really committed the crime!!!!!!! It's such a sordid affair of the criminal justice system!!???? It became a huge and sad learning experience!!!!!!!
Amen!
Elaine Rosoff she was racist mostly. Point blank.
I still think each of them should have gotten $41 million each. Not $41 million between the five of them. WHAT A JOKE. That’s the real crime.
YOU said a mouthful 😎
A white kid suing cnn for 275 million because his image was tarnished.
These guys are falsely accused of a crime and do time... have to split 41 million five ways. Yea.. this seems fair.🤔
Comrade Shaandan : True! They were suing for $250M, and that’s what they deserved. One guy got more because his harm was more.
I think four received $7M each, and he received $12M. In keeping with that, each of the four should have gotten about $47.5M, while the other guy should have received about $60M
It was between the 5? Wtf?
Yessssssssssssssssssss, 41 mil each!!!!!!
I cried so much while watching this series. The acting, directing, and scenes were brilliant and so heartbreaking
Scary thing is, a lot of inmates were and probably are still being convicted for crimes they did not commit. They're just unlucky no director or producer from Netflix came across their cases cause they're just unpopular enough.....
Any and all parties who had ANYTHING to do with ruining, lying and destroying these young men lives; need to be held accountable. All book royalties need to go directly to these men. I'm sick to death of devils.
Tenshar Farmer yes!!!
Absolutely I'm praying for justice
YES!!!!!!!! PLEASE SAY THAT AGAIN
They need to sit in jail and go through the same torment
Absolutely 👍
Let her spend that same time in prison.
yessss and everyone of the police officers
jail time x 5 remeber she sent 5 of them to jail.
14 for korey
And collectively it would be about 21 years because I believe they got sentenced to 6 to 17 years a peace So actually I think it might’ve been collectively 30 years but yeah she definitely should and so should the cops
Didn’t the jogger say years later that the five shouldn’t of got a pay out?! What?!?! They never even got an apology. They lost their childhoods something money cannot buy back. That money didn’t go far, they had to pay court fees for something they didn’t do! Big up AVA.
I feel for my black brothers. 😔😔😔
Now she knows how it feels to be hated by everyone
Lovely_Day you r so right
Cake Walk 315 🙌🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Unfortunately she doesn't know what it's like to be sent to prison for thirty years for a crime you did not commit. She's getting away real lightly imo
@Lovely_Day what the comment means that is the way the media and everyone is starting to go after her. Just the beginning.
@Lovely_Day yes she does know how it feels now.....the comment states that "she knows how it feels to be hated". It doesn't say anything about her knowing how it feels to be imprisoned. In all they getting, get understanding. Just saying.😏
Can you imagine how many other kids she could have done this to?
I'm so glad other people like you are thinking about stuff like this ... if she did this to kids I know there are grown men she has done this too without a question.
Sadly, I recently learned that this BS happens alot in New York... New York cops and D.A.'s have been known to fabricate and tamper with evidence to make a man look guilty just so they can close the case.
Just imagine how many other guys or young men are in prison doing hard time right now. 🤦🏽♂️
Mayra Garcia or has done this to, breaks my heart just thinking about it
And the true criminals outside.
Prosecutors never admit or apologize when THEIR victims are exonerated.
They also don’t seem to be held accountable.
My son started the online petition and I'm so proud of Ryan!! This entire story is heart wrenching and Trump is beyond vile!
Thanks goodness Trumps tenure is done.

That's right. Eventually, the light will shine into even the darkest pit, and everything will be shown.
Always!
Thank You Neo
She should have listened to Tyler Perry😭 i can't believe they went threw that THROW HER AND TRUMP AWAY MATTER FACT THROW HER IN JAIL
Neo Makofane and that’s Bible Luke 8:17
Linda, the police and all who were involved need to be thrown in jail with her
MultiDiceman you are so right they are more than gangsters thugs of the nastiest and evil of all times. Willing to be this corrupt contemptible and racist. Black lives don’t matter to them. I feel so sorry for the five men who will be traumatized forever and have to go through clinical counseling all their lives. It’s not something that goes away when their adolescence is taking away from them. Coerced into admitting to their ruthless tactics of a crime someone else committed. Earning money they don’t deserve, I know karma will not disappoint they will all suffer for their crude and demonic actions sooner rather than later. For them it’s normal why should they put effort to investigate black ppl are not relevant to them, the evident is in the White House who also endorses their conviction, evil begets evil and vengeance shall repay.
Wish the five guys a lifetime of hope to thrive and survive in this cold world full of hateful and ill refute generation both old and young.
👏

those 5 need to be in jail..look up the facts...they did it

That neflix is so stupid. All those crime show one side of the story. They didnt present one thing she did wrong. Clearly there was evidence against those boys. 12 people thought so anyways
@@bornfree8073 Those 12 people were wrong. thats why they are free now. And if it is so one sided whats the problem in the end the men were found NOT to be guilt by the LAW. The District Attorney of New York though so anyways.

30years of youth and life robbed and she's still not remorseful !?
She should be prosecuted and fined.
Imagine how many other men and women are incarcerated due to systematic racism.
Smh, its likely some, if not all of her cases may be thrown out.
Not just racism. Sexism toward men. So many men are witch hunted and falsely accused of rape. It's starting to come out into light.
@@sneakycactus8815 Are you saying that rape cases shouldnt be "witch hunted" because of the lies of a few?
Let's be real, there are more truthful rape accusations than there are false rape accusations.
fined? she should be locked up
. 5 people were falsely accused with 0 evidence and they’re rights were taken away. How is this not systematic racism? You do know your statistics include those falsely accused right?
She deserves the scrutiny and public humility. Trump endorse her and made his own remarks about these young black teenagers at that time to criticize and publicly crucify them.
Trump said "What about the other people who were brutalized that night, in addition to the jogger?…These young men do not exactly have the pasts of angels." not exactly stating he was wrong.
Correct.
@Jay Ocq when?
@Jay Ocq if im not mistaken he wanted the death penalty even after being proven innocent. He never apologized there was a interview about a year ago with them saying they dont expect an apology from trump.
Few people realize that Hilary Clinton is just as guilty regarding racial prejudice I.e. 1996 Super predators...
No one ever apologized either!
This case needs to be re-opened and investigated.
She, tRump, Pat Lynch, those officers who interrogated them.
Perhaps the judge too.
I couldn't even watch the movie. It was horrifying what those young men went thru.
Karma never forgets an address through.
I can only watch that series in small chunks. It's hard to stomach as I know how it ends.
They forget to mention the role the media played in the convictions I see.
Or the fact trump was one of the largest voices in the media paying up to 80,000 in ads to convince the jury these 14 15 and 16 year old deserved to be executed

You are propaganda.
Dont Forget the witch DA Elisabeth !!! She knew they were innocent
Right. Get them all
Didn't Trump want them to get the death penalty even after DNA evidence proved they had nothing to do with it, I wonder why he wanted 5 innocent black men dead, yet he's not mentioned the death penalty for any of the white supremacist that have killed in multiple numbers, just wondering
Preach
RIGHT!!!!
Right I just said that!..except my itch starting with a b...
No amount of money will ever be enough to make up for what those boys went through. They were children. Those people need to pay for what they did. They need to go to prison, lose their jobs, lose everything. They should bury themselves in shame & guilt. None of those boys have gotten one apology to this day.
How many other innocent people/children are in prison because of this woman
@scsyc bxcvbx true
They should review every case that she was even remotely associated with!

They probably already have, actually.
Billy Boy Yep...😐
The city of New York would be paying billions too many wrongfully convicted on her watch.
I say reopen every last case she’s prosecuted and investigate if there’s any wrongful convictions
Simone Coleman , yes, she did not have an open mind in prosecuting those teens. How many other cases did she get wrong?
Simone Coleman totally, this vile woman obviously had a agenda
I believe that's next.. I hope so
Yes yes yea
@@arafakil8170 why is it always just blacks? 🤨 Hispanics were convicted in this case also. 1:05
Their day will come when they will be judged and questioned
every time I hear this story it makes me feel so sad 😥
Ain’t gone lie this movie/mini series was powerful af
Thanks NETFLIX🙌🙏
Got to watch it tonight. Netflix has been kicking me out for the past few days not sure if my Internet connection was weak. But man. ..the looks on their faces hurt me deep down. I feel bad for them.
This Netflix show is powerful and is reminder to us how we people of color are treated on a daily basis and should be lesson to learn about our rights and how we have the right to remain silent on cases like these men have gone through.
I couldn't get thru it , to upsetting
I could not stay awake watching it so watched Ken Burns doc about it called “The Central Park Five” instead. Cost $2.99 to rent 48hours
Thank God for DNA. Linda Fairstein should get everything coming her way. What if this situation was to happen to her grandchildren are children?
It should but could you seriously imagine....5 white boys being in this position and a white lady like Linda fairstein being so gun hi to out them down? She'd probably release them and go look for a black guy to incriminate.
You're so right. DNA is absolute.
IT WOULD BE HER RIGHTFUL PUNISHMENT IF IT HAPPENED TO ANY OF HER FAMILY MEMBERS
This is the thing, no DNA matched from jump street. How tf do you lock them up off rip? N.Y. should be set to flames for this long ago. She keeps saying that, they know that's bull
It's horrendous that this happened to them, but I wish they would speak the woman's name when describing the injustice. She was killed, after all.
She ignored the NON evidence right in front of her as well!
Prosecutors and judges should be held accountable for robbing the innocent of their lives.
Really? Prosecutors are humans. And they made mistakes. Get a snickers
@@olivercito2011 too bad she didnt treat those kids like humans. She called them animals.
You may need a snickers
OLIVER Aguilar people did years behind bars for a simple “mistake”.This wasn’t a mistake it was racial profiling .What if it was one of your family members would you take it so lightly then ? No such thing as mistakes when it comes to ruining people’s lives.We only get one.If you can’t do your job without profiling people then don’t do it.Move along you ignorant person.
@@olivercito2011 That's BS. THERE WAS NO EVIDENCE CIRCUMSTANTIAL OR PHYSICAL THAT LINKED THESE MEN TO THIS RAPE. JUST BAD CONFESSIONS MADE BY 15 AND 16 YEAR OLD BOYS. IT WAS A BAD CALL NOT A MISTAKE
@@AAMUQuadChoppa I cant put myself in nobody shoes at that time, and call that lady racist. But whoever rape that lady.. was an animal.
If it's just sensationalism then why are you resigning from different positions???
Afros&AfroSheen Exactly! Because she knows that it is pretty close to some degree of the truth. When will white folk just learn to apologize for their part in contributing to the systemic problems that were born from slavery? They don’t see us as equals, as humans, because that’s what their history has directly and indirectly taught them. They are afraid to see themselves in the mirror because their evil truths will be looking them back in the face.
Probably because she was asked to by said organizations. All to save face.
@@zachocracy 😒😒 I recommend you reread what was written again since that's nowhere near what was said.

*reread and it is even more racist and ridiculous than the 1st time*
@@zachocracy I get it you're seeing what you want to see
corey took my heart
Well did they fabricate 13 years in jail SMH 😠
The Media PLAYED A PART IN CONVICTING The Central Park 5 ALSO
The biggest part was this witch tho
So did she get rape ? Or it’s a made up story ? James Rankins
Ticka 360 she got raped but those 5 people didn’t do it, the real rapist came out and confessed that he did it
Ticka 360 she got raped. the rapist came forward years later which in then led them to being exonerated
and so did Trump he was calling for the death penalty
Interesting how Linda Fairstein talks about how this film depicts her in a grossly inaccurate manner. Well, what about how those boys were depicted? You went on with your life and didn't think twice about them knowing everything didn't add up!
She's a prosecutor I don't think she talked about those yo men like they were angels. Pfft! But she think she did.
She is a monster! Her actions have just added to the multitude of scars that this country has to bear. People like this contribute to the many reasons why young black men and women are taught to FEAR the police and authority in general. And every time we as an American people try to heal and find the closer we so desperately need we have people more than willing to drive us apart. Personally, I'm a sickly man with several complications affecting my health due to sickle cell disease and I can not count how many times that I've been harassed or made fun or downright embarrass my those in power. The perfect example of this double standard is this if a caucasian person buys a gun then he's a patriot that loves his country who is just exercising his rights yet if a black man wants to exercise that very same right to bear arms then he is looked upon as a criminal! When you dehumanize us don't be surprised when some of us embrace the darkness. Let's work on bringing those people out of that darkness! All the mothers and fathers selling drugs just to put food on the table or clothes on their children's back. We are all people no matter race, gender creed, sexual orientation, or faith. Let's start acting like it!
@@mtrich8113 As a prosecutor things should fit together like a puzzle piece. They shouldn't be forced to fit. Those young men were depicted as "animals," less than human. She is a prosecutor that coerced, ignored evidence that showed there was too much doubt. Our system needs to be fixed.
@@ibrahimrobinson8508 Totally agree and sorry to hear what you have been put through.
This story is very tragic. This should never happen to anyone, especially minors
who wrongfully convicted those boys should now be prosecuted as well as the detectives involved
Well of course Linda is going to keep believing they are guilty. She isn’t going to own up to her mistakes.
Devil's never will.
Trump believes they are guilty too even with evidence that they are not guilty.
@@lenardsmith8864 Exactly
She made no mistakes. The witch knew what she was doing.
shes white her opinion is invalid. black people already conducted an internal investigation and cleared those kids of any wrong doing white people are clearly the enemy here damned sure wasnt the native americans
How about prosecuting her and having her spend 13 * 5 (65 yrs) for all 5 teenagers she maliciously sent to jail with no evidence?
An eye for an eye.
@xoxo lol They said they could go home if they just followed along to build a case against the other boys. They made them think they were witnesses and squeezed a confession out of them and even their parents told them to say what the cops wanted to hear just so they could go home.

#LOCK HER UP! LINDA FEINSTEIN
They'd find a way to give her time served for her guilty mental distress that she suffered over the last 30 years.
It’s just crazy, how can they be guilty with literally NO evidence they were there. Central Park is huge!
Linda Fairstein says that the series ‘depicts her in a fictionalized version of events (events pertaining to her that did not actually happen?), in a grossly and maliciously inaccurate manner’ (like a prosecutor might do with a defendant?). Hmmm. Now where does that scenario sound familiar from?
She should no longer practice or have any affiliation with the law! She is corrupt and not an honest citizen...She is the ANIMAL!!
It seems she doesn't practice anymore. She is a successful best-selling author of crime novels no less. She even has a lineup books with teens solving mysteries. Maybe her publisher will drop her.
Rough & Rosey Thompson Linda Fairstein: She's Delusional, & Corrupted Official. Her alignment is mixed, Lawful Neutral/Neutral Evil.
Kendon L. Taylor 👏🏾👏🏾
@@PhenoMikal-Onion @ Rough & Rosey Thompson Thank you.
She needs to be dealt with
She had the luxury of stepping down smfh
She probably was forced to step down. I'm sure she didn't do it voluntarily
Sounds about white..
Esteniz Lindor
That’s what they said, but it could be forced. Most likely was forced think about it, if you had a Director that had this much negative attention you would want them to step down.
When I watched "The Central Park 5" documentary years ago, I don't recall any of the prosecutors challenging the validity of the documentary. The original documentary is so well made and I highly encourage everyone to watch it.
I remember watching on the news as they marched them out the precinct in my Neighborhood
I just finished watching it and I cried a lot,
Who else?
Just watched it and definitely left me teary eyed. The fact that these four kids, now men, had to suffer for that long shows and says a lot about how the justice system works. To Mr. Wise...you are the definition of a friend. For you to volunteer to go and be there for a friend says so much. Then to be locked up for 10+ years...wow!!! To this horrible woman, God will definitely deal with you in the future end. Her pain and suffering is just beginning.
Ditto...!!
I couldn't even finish watching it! It was so painful. I'm a mom of four black men so I felt the mother's pain.
every episode was just tears and anger
I also cried espicaly for Corey i also had to skip through some of it found it to hard to watch , i have much respect for those men and what they went through ,shame on all those people who put 5 inacent children to prison
Irony is CBS helped assist the trial by media of those men as well.
you mean boys...they were boys
They were boys ,not men.
Maybe now they can now do the right thing.
I think he was talking about now because they are no longer boys they are men now
Nbc is shystyyyyy
Linda ‘fair’stein give someone else that name, it doesnt fit you
Honestly shocked to the core after watching the Documentary and Netflix show. This was children! And she is still walking the streets. How can this woman even sleep at night after letting police beat these kids up and make them say they committed a crime they clearly never. Anybody who puts money in her pocket through books or anything else is just as guilty! This woman should without a doubt be in jail for treating these children and the families in such an inhuman way........... Sick to the core
