Linda Fairstein has no doubt that the Central Park five were guilty too.
There was a lot more to this case than the confessions, which were not coerced.
This gang of thugs attacked many people that night. They were in Central Park. They did it.
And I am glad that Trump stood up for the victim back then and I am glad he is not backing down now.
Mayor DeBlasio made a huge mistakes by paying millions to these perpetrators.

Bring Back the Death Penalty. Bring Back our Police.
He made a bold important statement.
At that time, there were gangs of teens assaulting people in Central Park. It was horrific.
Trump is for law and order. he is not racist.
He was right back then and he is right now. We need law and order.

Now, he is still giving interviews that the five youths were guilty. http://www.cnn.com/2016/10/06/politics/reality-check-donald-trump-central-park-5/
The Central Park 5 were exonerated, and in 2014, New York paid them a $41 million settlement.
But Trump still is not buying their innocence.
"They admitted they were guilty," Trump said this week in a statement to CNN's Miguel Marquez. "The police doing the original investigation say they were guilty. The fact that that case was settled with so much evidence against them is outrageous. And the woman, so badly injured, will never be the same."
Since Trump obviously still believes that the Central Park 5 are guilty, it cannot be said he is lying or even misleading. But he is undoubtedly holding steadfast to an opinion in the face of DNA evidence to the contrary and the fact that the Central Park 5 have been exonerated by the legal system.
