Had forgotten about this incident.....imagine Trump as President being able to push the red button! Yikes!
In 1989 Donald Trump took out a full page ad in four New York City newspapers calling for the execution of the alleged rapists in the infamous Central Park Jogger case.
All five of the suspects were convicted, largely because of confessions which they later recanted and which are now believed to be the result of coercion by the NYPD detectives investigating the case. In 2002, a man already in prison on other charges confessed to the crime and said that he acted alone, a fact confirmed by DNA tests that showed that only one person had raped the victim, and that person turned out to be the person who confessed after tests were performed.
The convictions of the five men were voided, but if Trump had his way they all probably would’ve been dead before the actual rapist confessed.
