The five men claim in a federal lawsuit that Trump knew he was acting with “reckless disregard” for the truth when he said during the September debate with Vice President Kamala Harris that they pleaded guilty to crimes connected to the beating and raping a woman in New York City, and that the five teenagers “badly hurt a person, killed a person” in the attack.
“Defendant Trump’s statements were false and defamatory in numerous respects,” attorneys for the men, now all in their 50s, wrote in the lawsuit filed in federal court in Philadelphia. “Plaintiffs never pled guilty to the Central Park assaults. Plaintiffs all pled not guilty and maintained their innocence throughout their trial and incarceration, as well as after they were released from prison.”
“None of the victims of the Central Park assaults were killed,” the lawyers for Yusef Salaam, Raymond Santana, Kevin Richardson, Antron Brown and Korey Wise wrote.
Isn't this well over the statute of limitations?
The statements by Trump were made last month.
"Continuing Tort" Although (NAL) I think there can be arguments whether the statute runs from when he started defaming them or can still be raised. Maybe if he had not commented on them being actually guilty (or if before he acknowledged the victim was not killed) since they were exonerated?
Would his defense be that people already know they were exonerated so he can lie about them without damaging their reputations, and invoke his own reputation for lying? (Hasn't he done something like that before? Or am I thinking of a Rudy defense that his claims were obviously ridiculous re 2020 election)?
He said they plead guilty when they never did, and he said someone died when no one did.

Does not mater Trump is immune and above the law. He is king and his court will not abide him being held to the law.

That’s fair since political motivation is the reason why Trump is still talking about these innocent Black men in a political debate 30 years later.

This defamation is not about his full-page ad in the 80s. He just defamed them during the debate saying that "they pleaded guilty" and "they killed a person".
Good for them.
Trump just can’t stop ruining people’s lives.

Right, this is not at all about presidential candidates should be held accountable for their irresponsible words.
