The exonerated 'Central Park Five' have filed a defamation lawsuit against Donald Trump following his comments during a recent presidential debate. The lawsuit alleges that Trump's remarks about the 1989 rape case, for which the five men were wrongfully convicted and later exonerated in 2002, were false and defamatory. The comments were made during a debate in Pennsylvania, prompting the members of the 'Central Park Five' to take legal action against the former president. The lawsuit was reported by CNN and NBC.
