Members of the Central Park Five appeared onstage on Thursday night at the Democratic National Convention {snip} They were accused of gang raping a female jogger in Central Park, New York City, in 1989.
{snip} They were released when someone else said that he had raped the victim {snip}
Their story was retold by columnist Ann Coulter {snip}:
Four of The Five gave videotaped confessions, at least three of them in the presence of parents or guardians. Defense attorneys spent weeks attacking the confessions as “coerced,” but two multicultural juries and the trial judge concluded that the confessions were voluntary.
…
{snip} Matias Reyes came forward to “confess” that he alone had raped the jogger — a crime for which he would face no additional punishment — DNA testing on the semen could prove only that he’d raped her, not that he’d acted alone, or whether, as a former cellmate says, he’d heard the jogger’s screams and ran to join the attack in progress.
