Yes very hard to see them go through that im very happy that they were exonerated and at least their story brings more people to see the truth about the way the system is flawed.

You guys are my hero!! Much Luv & prayers to all of you!!🙏🏽❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🙏🏽
The scene where baby boy had a durag on , muscle , and walked with a bop .. ready for his time in prison.... Made me cry .. he was a completely different kid .... he had to change tho 😢
Koreys episode hit me the hardest. I have a son and I would go threw he'll and back for him. I cried I struggled watching the episode. But I'm so happy God had angels watching him every step of the way.God keep all the 5 victims blessed always
Thanks for your review. You would think they would let you keep the mat to sit on. The Korey Wise story got to me. Here is a kid, who is just trying to help his buddy, and he ends up getting the longest sentence,and at rikers Island. His buddy goes to juvenile detection.
I appreciate your story and the impact impacted my damn mental health I love Korey for his story it hurts to witness all five of these now men story and truth BUT it's necessary much 💯
It made me depressed after watching but the next day I just started thinking what I can do the help the world become a bit better with whatever contribution I can bring to the table. So many injustices in the world. So many people that need help. Not that I don’t need any help but if I can just help one person that would make me happy

Kharey Wise and Yusef Salaam The first contact between Wise, Salaam and the police officers conducting this investigation occurred around 10:30 PM on the evening of April 20th, the day after the investigation of the events began, when several officers were sent to the home of Yusef Salaam to ask him to come to the stationhouse to answer some questions. Wise and Salaam were sought for questioning because a number of the others who had been detained had implicated Salaam and a youth named “Kharey” (Exhibit A, p. 41). Wise, Salaam, and another individual were met by several detectives in the hallway of Wise’s apartment building. All three voluntarily agreed to accompany the officers to the 20th Precinct. They were not handcuffed because there was no intention to arrest them, just to question them. Wise and Salaam both asked the Court to suppress statements and physical evidence obtained from them on the grounds that the encounter in the hallway was effectively an arrest without probable cause. The Court rejected these arguments and refused to suppress any evidence, holding that the defendants agreed voluntarily to go to the precinct: [The officers] approached defendants Wise and Salaam in a non-threatening manner, and made brief inquiries of them as to their name and age. Salaam admitted that they knew the police were upstairs when they returned to his floor. …The record supports the conclusion that defendants’ agreements to go to the precinct were voluntary and unconstrained. (Citations omitted) Therefore, probable cause was not required as a predicate for their presence, and their statements and physical evidence will not be suppressed on that ground.
Just logic why would a CHILD rape a WOMAN! FOH this is so sad I always cry hearing this I cant. They are babies omg i am so so so so srry. I am crying so much hearing your story this is very heatbreaking yet enlightening as well. This presents alot of issues with our system and how we treat our youth!!! Thank you please keep making videos x
I'm from NYC and old enough that I remember this trial and incident first Hand it was a complete different world back then. These young men were innocent, however there were Mobs of Kids Back then that would role 20-30 deep and terrorize an Area I experience this first hand in a Mall They rushed the mall and I ended up fighting 8 at one time... Obviously I lost and got kicked in the head I was 16, they robbed several people in the Mall and one whyte dude got his head stomped so bad I'm not sure he even made it. This was common on 42nd, and Central Park a place no one dared to be caught in at night. Now it's Disney land, but before 42nd was filled with Hookers, Drugs and xxx theaters.
Man that was the best movie or documentary i have ever seen in a very long time, brings back lots of memories when i was a kid, they did an excellent job making it and recreating the 80s and 90s. Man i wish i could go back to when things were more normal than it is today. As much as i love the instant gratification of todays technology I'd give it all up to go back to the good ol days.
@@30toLife did you watch the Oprah Winfrey show afterwards? The toughest one of all 5 had everyone crying in the audience, actually kinda hard to watch.
Ain't no way i would ever sell my kid out over a job NO WAY i would be snapping out on the cops, actually me or my kid would not even be talking to them pigs. I want my lawyer and thats it.
Mattis Rayes had committed a rape 2 days before he raped the jogger, the NYPD, traced Mattis Rayes back to a hospital , were he received stitches, ( for another rape) so the NYPD had his name and DNA on file, but Linda Fairstein. was so lazy, sloppy , incompetent. that she never checked for a match.
@@evaszabo9197 I believe they did do a DNA on him and actually knew it was he that did the crime, but a better story came from a group rape than that of Rayes single attack .. I despise people like those that put these innocent kids in jail to boost their own egos and profiles ..
Yeah, when I watched I could see myself in him I'm a August Leo, I'm just like that loyal to a fault you will support your friends in everything and the truth and the nobility in him kept him alive.
Hey Ron this is not the first time that this has happened. Especially for black men if you ever get a chance you can look up George Stinney and Emmett till.
Diggin your channel. It's cool to see the perspective of an Asian Pacific dude who rides in the other car. Mostly prison seems to be geared toward the Latinos, AA, and woods and there's no mention of Pacific folks. I'm a white guy married to an Inuit native woman (Eskimo). Q. Would Native American Indians and Alaskan Natives hang with Asians (Vietnamese, Cambodian) and Polynesians? Thanks in advance sir!
These was f up but when anybody goes to jail or prison for such a crime the outcome it's never good no matter what // there's a alot that are still going threw this but once u in prison there's no feeling sorry for someone with that type of crime point blank I'm glad the truth came out n they free but this been going on for years n if u Latino or brown we are the target 😡😡
It ain’t no money will ever get your freedom and your mind back Brown and black kids we go through stuff like this , shit you visit family at the pen and the cos treat the family members like crap , if you speak up they kick you out and won’t let you visit , then on the streets you get stop and they question you for no reason I even got pat down and frisk for no reason cause they were looking for young Hispanic male after the cop left he didn’t apologize cause they realize it wasn’t me they were looking for ,we can feel your emotion man you a good dude you
.......I PERSONALLY put my hands on wise while I was there,......He DIDN'T over exaggerate,...we put him through some shit,.....even slicing his ear/face/head with a razor... ..they where rapist,......at least we THOUGHT......the c.o's WON'T help them (unlike now since the Privatization of the prisons in N.Y state)...the guilt I carried after finding out......the Netflix series was TORTURE for me,...I was also railroaded by the area police, so .....I was PERSANALY and emotionally attached to this situation.
This mini series was heartbreaking to say the least and I am haunted by this because of this reality: what happened to these five boys is not an isolated incident, but what is the norm in this kkkountry. And yes, they were exonerated and rightfully so. But what about the MANY who are still in prison that are INNOCENT? Kids are being locked up every single day for crimes they did not commit or doing MAXIMUM for petty crimes that they committed only because of environmental circumstances (George Jackson, Soledad Brothers). That is the most heartbreaking about this whole situation...what can we do??? How do we change the system that was designed to incarcerate and enslave people of color? Someone please give me guidance on what to do that will make a difference? I'm so afraid that this is just going to fade out and we are going to go back to being sheep - indifferent and afraid to make change because we are so used to being comfortable.
Yes I agree, the reality is is that the system is deeply flawed. And you’re right what happened to these kids is something that happens a lot more than we all know. Their have been studies that have shown that at least 4% percent of people on death row were and are likely innocent but their cases don’t get looked at because of lack of money and public outcry. You asked what do we do or what can we do? Unfortunately I don’t have the answer I feel that for me I just want the kids who are our future should be taught and educated about things like this so that they can change the system from the inside out. Or at least teach our future generations how to survive the law.
The system is slowly changing but I know not fast enough. Back in the 90s these type of crimes were a guessing game. At least now they have DNA and are stricter about youth interrogations. Obviously this doesn’t change the facts for the people already wrongfully convicted in prison so we also need to fight for them. We need to support prison reform bills, we need to support legalizing drugs and we shouldn’t support #BelieveAllWomen. The evidence is all we should believe
Just started to watch it. And man I can't believe and stand those dirty ass pigs . .. anyways keep up the good positive work you keep putting out . Really enjoy your vids and I cant imagine living on prison .
Additional Factors of Significance: Wise: Knowledge of Walkman In his February 2002 statement to the inspector general, Reyes purported to have exclusive knowledge that the Central Park jogger had worn a Walkman on the night of her attack. Reyes said he stole the Walkman, and only he knew about it, thereby helping to establish that he was the sole attacker. This was the first time that anyone had reason to focus on the existence of a Walkman. In the course of our review, we uncovered notes from New York City Police Department Detective August Jonza that documented the fact that Kharey Wise knew about the Walkman on April 19, 1989. When the Central Park jogger was found, there was no Walkman on her body. With the victim in a coma (she subsequently had no memory of the attack or events leading up to it), detectives had no way of knowing she had the Walkman on her at the time of the attack. Although it was her custom to wear a Walkman when jogging, the victim had no memory of whether she did so on that night. When she was informed in 2002 that Reyes had said that he took her Walkman, she told detectives that she owned two Walkmen and one was missing. Kharey Wise was questioned at 4:50 AM on April 21, 1989 by Detective Jonza, whose notes list what Wise told him regarding “persons present when girl raped.” (Exhibit E.) Included on the list is the reference “Rudy - played with tits/took walkman.” At the bottom of the page, it is noted, “female had pouch for Walkman on her belt.” Wise’s description of the walkman “pouch” is, therefore, similar to Reyes’s description of a “fanny pack.” At the time of this interview, neither Detective Jonza, nor anyone else investigating the events of the evening, had any way of knowing that the jogger had a Walkman, or a pouch. One would have had to encounter the jogger to have that information, a point that has been emphasized by some who have claimed that only Reyes did so. The name “Rudy” was never linked to anyone, and Wise’s reference to the name could represent confusion on his part, or his understanding of the name by which Reyes introduced himself. In any event, whatever else Wise may or may not have known, the important fact is that he knew the jogger had a Walkman, and a “pouch” to put it in.
While your theories are nice my life-long friendship with a man named Armando "Chango" Mejias (the person most responsible for the exoneration of these men) renders all that you've written nil. I'll just tell you to research his story and connection to the CP5 case then pass judgement, those boys were for a lack of a better term railroaded and all that you've presented can't change that. Furthermore, even of you take into account "other" crimes that were committed in the park that night the police and the public at-large were after the perpetrator of the crime against the jogger Patricia Millie, due to the NYPD's incompetence regarding this case Matias Reyes would go on to rape 4 more women murdering one of them if anything that makes the officers in this case his accomplices. Lastly, one thing I've yet to hear from those who use the confessions as proof of guilt and hang on to the theory that Reyes was merely the unnamed sixth perpetrator why in all of those TAPED confessions not one of those then BOYS mention Reyes at any time, ever, not even in passing?
And the actor named Eastwood on this show one day pulled up to a little Trump Rally in the middle of traffic after this rally was almost over, and he left his kids in the car making a scene for attention trying to start a fight with dudes half his size and a 70 year old man and he spit on a Latina girl and he got arrested. And the Trump Supporters were telling the cops to let him go, which they did and he shook hands with Trump Supporters and left. AS SOON AS THIS FOOL GETS HOME, He goes on social media saying some Trump Supporters called him and his kid The N Word, and also lied saying They were supposedly telling him Fuck Obama- Nobody Did. He blocked everyone who told the truth and said the Latina he spit on was a "White Girl". BUSTER! and a LIAR too! Some Bitchass BS nobody Gangster would have done. He's a Lop and people have pics of him shaking hands with Trump Supporters in Westwood. I AGREE WITH YOU ON THIS MOVIE. Alright, Alright Homie.
This is why I don't believe in the death penalty. If one out of one thousand is innocent? It's bad. Some folks say they are ok with those odds. I say what if that one out of one thousand is you???
Kharey Wise Kharey Wise’s parents were not present for his interview, because he was over the age of sixteen. Wise made the following claims with respect to suppression of his statements: • Physical force was used or threatened, thus rendering his admissions involuntary. • He was falsely promised that he would be released if he talked. On the use of physical force to obtain his statements, the Court was quite clear: The record simply does not sustain that. I note that the video taken of Wise after the time of the alleged beating gave no indication of any bruises. (Exhibit A, p. 114) Nor does the record support Wise’s argument that his will was overborne by shouting, intimidation and the lack of rest, food and drink. Wise slept, ate and received milk when he asked for it. Further, his behavior while in the cell at the 24th Precinct, particularly his laughing and asking his codefendants if they had told the police allegedly humorous incidents involving joggers, belies his contention that he suffered from physical abuse or psychological duress. (Exhibit A, p. 114) On the issue of false promises the Court was equally clear: Wise argues that his statements must be suppressed because he was promised that, if he made them, he would be released. The only basis in the record for this proposition is defendant’s own testimony, which I find incredible. His motion to suppress statements is in all respects denied. (Exhibit A, p. 115)
The Netflix lied Big time! Was created by Ava. Go watch the Real Video of the interrogation. Those kids knew eachother. Even said eachother's name during the interrogation.
Hopefully they’ll all at least be rich now........that’s the only acceptable offer of penance in my opinion. If my Time, which in our existence equals Life, is taken from me from injustice and made into misery , then the remainder of Time I have left should be better than it would’ve probably been had I lived a normal life.
Im not from the US but i've always heared black ppl complain and blame the system for treating them wrong it came across me in movies media even music.. i remember thinking to myself yh we get it police was racist towards u 4a period of time now its done this is overreacting and it can't be that bad for these last generations, but i must say watching this story broke my heart and made me upset of myself thinking i had a clue what they been throw and was bumfuzzled of the system that would accept nonesence in the name of the law, seeing their prespective they were boxed in. Poor Corey was almost institutionalized to become a criminal i was in tears everytime i see that man thinking he's a legend to pull throw as good hearted human being. After watching this and searching the story i remember thinking to myself oh i get now, they have every right to complain and make sure that shit will never happen again and i would feel so much threatend if someone like Trump as my president. To all racis and colurs keep fighting 4ur rights and i'll say it once again: i get it and u have every right to.
Yo I’m releasing a book called #deservingmercy inspired by the time I got arrested for drugs that didn’t belonged to me while in college. I got charged for PWID marijuana, which is a felony that cannot be expunged.
Everything I see that series a rage comes over my heart for the other side ! Smh young Nikkas man going thru gladiator shit over nothing then Donald trump wanna try and give them the death penalty!!! 🤴🏿
relevant forensic evidence concerning the presence of hair, blood and semen on some of the defendants’ clothing was presented at trial and has not been refuted. In particular, hair “consistent” with the female jogger’s hair was found on the clothing of Richardson and co-defendant Steven Lopez; blood stains were found on Santana’s right sneaker, Salaam’s jacket and on co-defendant Lopez’s underwear, and semen stains were found on the underwear of McCray and Richardson, and on Santana’s sweatshirt. This evidence is by no means dispositive, but it contradicts various reports that no blood was found on any of the defendants.. Some of the defendants have repeated their admissions of guilt. Santana testified at a parole hearing in 1994 and he was questioned about the crimes he committed on April 19th, 1989. He admitted that he and his friends planned to go to the park that night to rob and assault people. He stated that about seven or eight friends devised the plan. They were prepared to attack whoever they encountered that night in the park. Santana reiterated that they had let one, a couple, go because the man was with his girlfriend. Santana also admitted to beating a man. He denied only the rape. When McCray went before the parole board in November 1994, he admitted all of his crimes except for the rape of the female jogger. Two of the defendants, Raymond Santana and Kevin Richardson, during interviews conducted by detectives in 2002, admitted their participation in the assaults that did not involve the jogger. In the first major event, the assault on Antonio Diaz, a total of 23 people were named as participants or as being present. All five defendants were implicated by accomplices and two admitted participation. The second major event was harassment of a couple on a tandem bike. A total of 13 people were named participants or as being present; four of the defendants were implicated by accomplices and admitted participation. The third major event was crossing the 96th Street Transverse road to the reservoir. A total of 17 people were identified as having gone south towards the reservoir. All five defendants were implicated by accomplices and admitted going. The fourth major event was the assault on jogger David Lewis. A total of 11 people were identified as participants or as being present. Four of the defendants were implicated by accomplices and one admitted participation. The fifth major event was the assault on jogger John Loughlin, who was very badly beaten. A total of 19 people were identified as participants or as being present. All five defendants were implicated by accomplices and three admitted participation. Whatever conclusions may be reached regarding Matias Reyes’s claim that he raped the female jogger alone, there seems to be no reason to believe that the defendants were innocent of the other crimes for which they were convicted.
N u know in the West coast I don't think he would of made out alive hes,very lucky it was N.Y. state were politics in prison is not the same real talk///
Bro I've been in 6 max prisons up stare N.Y. n no matter if u blew trial if the charge was raped u gonna get got// n I know there alot of inmates that say they didn't do but rape charge u will get stab or kill facts bro that's what I'm saying n of course after watching the movie people are get into there feelings
Witness Melody Jackson Just before trial, in an effort to locate and interview additional witnesses, detectives asked Corey Jackson, a 15-year old friend of Kharey Wise, to come into the precinct to be interviewed. Jackson came into the 25th Precinct with his 27-year old sister Melody. During this interview, Melody Jackson made an unsolicited statement concerning a conversation she had with Kharey some time after the pre-trial hearing. She explained that she was at her sister’s house when the phone rang. She answered the phone and it was Wise calling from Riker’s Island. She said hello and then said to him that she couldn’t believe that they “did that.” Wise repeatedly stated that he didn’t rape anyone, finally saying that he “only held her legs down while Kevin fucked her.” Jackson seemingly thought her information would be helpful to Wise. She was subpoenaed by the District Attorney’s office to testify at trial, and repeated what she had said. Melody Jackson’s interview in 2002 re-confirmed her testimony. She also explained the negative effect her testimony has had on her life, once it became apparent that the testimony inculpated Wise.
Witnesses Ronald Williams and Shabazz Head In the afternoon of April 20,1989, prior to being arrested, Kharey Wise made admissions to two acquaintances, Ronald Williams and Shabazz Head. They approached Wise at 110th Street and Fifth Avenue and Wise told them to get away from him because the police were after him. Williams and Head walked away. A short time later they encountered him again and asked why the police were after him. Wise replied, “You heard about that woman that was beat up and raped in the park last night. That was us!” Both Williams and Head were re-interviewed in 2002. Head claimed to have no memory of what he said to the detectives in 1989. Williams gave the same statement that he did in 1989. In addition, he was asked to explain what the statement ”that was us” meant to him. He said that he took that to mean that Wise and others had raped the woman in the park on the night of April 19, 1989.
Poor guys were out robbing and beating people in the park when they were implicated. I feel truly horrible that these criminals...I mean, nice young men, were charged with rape when all they did was commit assault, battery, and armed robbery. This is truly a sad, heartbreaking story.
Cory wise episode had a 275 pound 6foot man actually cry the pain he went through for nothing was unreal!!!these white people really hate us but it's ok because the MOST HIGH LOVES US!!!
FitnessByFire why not just share what you really want to say about the series instead of assuming what I have or haven’t done . The title reads that this is a review on the Netflix series . Why not enlighten us with what information you have in contrary to the series.

@@30toLife We believe that the issue of coercion was laid to rest authoritatively by the exhaustive opinion of Judge Galligan, following a lengthy Huntley hearing. Whether the defendants’ statements were accurate or not, the methods used in obtaining them were examined by Judge Galligan with utmost care. We have not seen any evidence to suggest that Judge Galligan was in error and our review of available information confirms that police interrogations were conducted professionally and in accordance with applicable rules. Affirming that neither the police nor the prosecutors engaged in outright coercion, the District Attorney has theorized that facts may have inadvertently been suggested to defendants and witnesses, enabling them to describe the attack on the jogger with sufficient particularity to make their statements credible. To determine whether this sort of thing went on, it is necessary to analyze the consistencies and inconsistencies in the various statements. The considerations are similar to those relevant to the basic question of whether Reyes is to be believed when he says he attacked the jogger alone. Those who believe Reyes emphasize the inconsistencies in the defendants’ statements and those who do not believe him point to the statements’ consistencies and to other supporting evidence.
@@TheSillyMarioBro See I knew you wanted to get something off your chest :) Ok so I read all the comments you posted on here. Now I do not no where to find the sources of this information that you have so if you can give me those sources so that i can look up this information myself that would be great. But going on just what you have gave us here I can admit there is reasonable doubt but, isn't reasonable doubt always present when you are looking? So lets talk about Judge Galligan, now I dont need to know if he's a stand up guy or not but I know that he was concidered the toughest Jude when it came to sentencing and that he was also known to have that Law-and-order-image. But what really concerns me in what you've shared about this Judge is the fact that he was the one to examine the interrogation methods of the Police department of the 5 and was also the presiding judge of their trial and maybe even the judge that approved the warrants. Now I am not saying that Judge Galligan cannot perform his duties without bias but it is no secret that these judges, district attorneys and police officers all play golf and have lunch together. So to trust that anyone should take Judge Galligan's ruling of no misconduct of the interrogation still leaves doubt when its the system thats being accused investigating itself. Let me continue responding on your other posts.....
@@TheSillyMarioBro Okay so the police claim they had evidence of blood and hair on the defendants yet there is no evidence proving that it was the joggers blood or hair correct? This evidence was also not presented by the district attorney or allowed admissible during trial correct? If this be the case than according to law we cannot assume they are responsible for the rape because the evidence was not substantial. Now if you are arguing doubt or contradiction of their testimonies and others then maybe, but still no physical evidence to link the 5 to the victim. Now I do not deny that those kids were out there causing havoc and assaulting people in the park this is fact by their own admissions but still they have not admitted to the rape. Now I do not know if Matias Reyes ever admitted or was charged in connection to those same assaults that the 5 and others were accused of but if he was I would say that it does raise suspicion regarding Matias Reyes’s claim that he raped the female jogger alone. But again it still does not prove they (the 5) were involved in the rape. Now I think the argument here is basically there is doubt because if they are guilty of these other crimes why is it hard to believe that they were involved in the rape. Well I wont say that its not possible but I also wouldn't say that they raped a woman because they beat someone up in the park the same night the rape occurred.
The five are guilty. Kids that were there that night confessed while being arrested before they even learnec about the rape. Also korey would have been arrested any ways he was already on suspect list.
I literally cried when they told him to read what he wrote and he has a learning disability and cant read...his whole story broke my heart.😔 I also just watched documentary on Kalief Browder....the system is definitely f...up smh
Yes very hard to see them go through that im very happy that they were exonerated and at least their story brings more people to see the truth about the way the system is flawed.

They tend to look for young children because they don't know how these crooks in the system work
Mamas need Love too facts
An American Nightmare! The mini series was painful to watch.
The scene where baby boy had a durag on , muscle , and walked with a bop .. ready for his time in prison.... Made me cry .. he was a completely different kid .... he had to change tho 😢

How many black people are in jail falsely accused 🤔 How many people. Regardless of race
Good question
Koreys episode hit me the hardest. I have a son and I would go threw he'll and back for him. I cried I struggled watching the episode. But I'm so happy God had angels watching him every step of the way.God keep all the 5 victims blessed always
I still can’t watch it. Both as a mom and a mom whose child has an intellectual disability.
I watched it. It pissed me off royally. They went through hell
Somebody watch it for me i dont have the mentality for that

I ain't gone be to do it!!
Thanks for your review. You would think they would let you keep the mat to sit on. The Korey Wise story got to me. Here is a kid, who is just trying to help his buddy, and he ends up getting the longest sentence,and at rikers Island. His buddy goes to juvenile detection.
Thank you 🙏🏽 yeah they take it away as a form of punishment.
It was definitely sad how it all went down Korey got the real shitty end of it all!
When his mom said "I ain't got it to give" 💔
That was real tough to watch
I’m from NYC n I remember this case very well!! After reading the newspaper n watching this case unfold on TV, I knew 1000% these boys were innocent!!
Me too
Yeah bro he had it the worst outta all 5 of them thank god he survived to see all of this men my eyes was filled with tears watching the last episode
keep in mind there is no punishment for falsely accusing someone of rape
Nope
Aye dude who played Cory one amazing actor. Props to him
What does it profit to have a high conviction rate, but the real people are out here doing the crimes? Its sad. I cried the whole time!
I appreciate your story and the impact impacted my damn mental health I love Korey for his story it hurts to witness all five of these now men story and truth BUT it's necessary much 💯
Thank you 🙏🏽 yes I agree it is sad and scary to hear but like you said necessary. Stay blessed
It made me depressed after watching but the next day I just started thinking what I can do the help the world become a bit better with whatever contribution I can bring to the table. So many injustices in the world. So many people that need help. Not that I don’t need any help but if I can just help one person that would make me happy
Diana Muniz You are helping by speaking on it by starting a conversation about it and deciding to do something to help 🙏🏽
I just can't bear to watch it! It's heartbreaking!
Korey went threw it the worse I’m thankful they able to go home it was heart ❤️💔 breaking
I’m glad you both made it
🙏🏽

Kharey Wise and Yusef Salaam
The first contact between Wise, Salaam and the police officers conducting this investigation occurred around 10:30 PM on the evening of April 20th, the day after the
investigation of the events began, when several officers were sent to the home of Yusef Salaam to ask him to come to the stationhouse to answer some questions. Wise and Salaam were sought for questioning because a number of the others who had been detained had implicated Salaam and a youth named “Kharey” (Exhibit A, p. 41). Wise, Salaam, and another individual were met by several detectives in the hallway of Wise’s apartment building. All three voluntarily agreed to accompany the officers to the 20th
Precinct. They were not handcuffed because there was no intention to arrest them, just to question them.
Wise and Salaam both asked the Court to suppress statements and physical evidence obtained from them on the grounds that the encounter in the hallway was effectively an arrest without probable cause. The Court rejected these arguments and refused to suppress any evidence, holding that the defendants agreed voluntarily to go to the precinct:
[The officers] approached defendants Wise and Salaam in a non-threatening manner, and made brief inquiries of them as to their name and age. Salaam admitted that they knew the police were upstairs when they returned to his floor. …The record supports the conclusion that defendants’ agreements to go to the precinct were voluntary and unconstrained. (Citations omitted) Therefore, probable cause was not required as a predicate for their presence, and their statements and physical evidence will not be suppressed on that ground.
This is how it was back in the 90s. Shit if you are an adult this shit still happens
Just logic why would a CHILD rape a WOMAN! FOH this is so sad I always cry hearing this I cant. They are babies omg i am so so so so srry. I am crying so much hearing your story this is very heatbreaking yet enlightening as well. This presents alot of issues with our system and how we treat our youth!!! Thank you please keep making videos x
I'm from NYC and old enough that I remember this trial and incident first
Hand it was a complete different world back then.
These young men were innocent, however there were Mobs of Kids
Back then that would role 20-30 deep and terrorize an Area
I experience this first hand in a Mall
They rushed the mall and I ended up fighting 8 at one time... Obviously I lost and got kicked in the head I was
16, they robbed several people in the Mall and one whyte dude got his head stomped so bad I'm not sure he even made it.
This was common on 42nd, and Central Park a place no one dared to be caught in at night.
Now it's Disney land, but before
42nd was filled with Hookers, Drugs and xxx theaters.
Putting this shit on right now. Thanks for the heads up i been looking for a good prison show to watch.
👊🏽
Man that was the best movie or documentary i have ever seen in a very long time, brings back lots of memories when i was a kid, they did an excellent job making it and recreating the 80s and 90s. Man i wish i could go back to when things were more normal than it is today. As much as i love the instant gratification of todays technology I'd give it all up to go back to the good ol days.
@@30toLife did you watch the Oprah Winfrey show afterwards? The toughest one of all 5 had everyone crying in the audience, actually kinda hard to watch.
Ain't no way i would ever sell my kid out over a job NO WAY i would be snapping out on the cops, actually me or my kid would not even be talking to them pigs. I want my lawyer and thats it.
4 months ? Mann I couldn’t even take the holding cell
How long was korey wise in solarity containment for.
Lazy policing ..
Amongst a whole lot of other things!
lazy and incompetent
Mattis Rayes had committed a rape 2 days before he raped the jogger,
the NYPD, traced Mattis Rayes back to a hospital , were he received stitches, ( for another rape) so the NYPD had his name and DNA on file,
but Linda Fairstein. was so lazy, sloppy , incompetent. that she never checked for a match.
@@evaszabo9197 I believe they did do a DNA on him and actually knew it was he that did the crime, but a better story came from a group rape than that of Rayes single attack .. I despise people like those that put these innocent kids in jail to boost their own egos and profiles ..
Shit pisses me off how innocent ppl are booked with little to no evidence while the ones responsible run free🤬...SAD
God bless you
Thank you, God bless you and yours 🙏🏽

Yeah, when I watched I could see myself in him I'm a August Leo, I'm just like that loyal to a fault you will support your friends in everything and the truth and the nobility in him kept him alive.

Hey Ron this is not the first time that this has happened. Especially for black men if you ever get a chance you can look up George Stinney and Emmett till.
Diggin your channel. It's cool to see the perspective of an Asian Pacific dude who rides in the other car. Mostly prison seems to be geared toward the Latinos, AA, and woods and there's no mention of Pacific folks. I'm a white guy married to an Inuit native woman (Eskimo).
Q. Would Native American Indians and Alaskan Natives hang with Asians (Vietnamese, Cambodian) and Polynesians?
Thanks in advance sir!
Thank you 🙏🏽
Stay blessed!
These was f up but when anybody goes to jail or prison for such a crime the outcome it's never good no matter what // there's a alot that are still going threw this but once u in prison there's no feeling sorry for someone with that type of crime point blank I'm glad the truth came out n they free but this been going on for years n if u Latino or brown we are the target 😡😡
Real talk 👊🏽
You know your shyt man. I am glad I ran across your videos.
Thank you Clarence 🙏 blessings to you brother..
Just subbed to the channel fam keep it up!!!
Thank you 🙏🏽
It ain’t no money will ever get your freedom and your mind back Brown and black kids we go through stuff like this , shit you visit family at the pen and the cos treat the family members like crap , if you speak up they kick you out and won’t let you visit , then on the streets you get stop and they question you for no reason I even got pat down and frisk for no reason cause they were looking for young Hispanic male after the cop left he didn’t apologize cause they realize it wasn’t me they were looking for ,we can feel your emotion man you a good dude you
A black man was just released from prison recently just because he stole $5. And he did 20 years behind bars!!!
Smdh 🤦♂️ that’s f’d up!
Bet he wont steal again
Great job on this.
Thank you 🙏🏽
Great movie...sad but really good movie
.......I PERSONALLY put my hands on wise while I was there,......He DIDN'T over exaggerate,...we put him through some shit,.....even slicing his ear/face/head with a razor... ..they where rapist,......at least we THOUGHT......the c.o's WON'T help them (unlike now since the Privatization of the prisons in N.Y state)...the guilt I carried after finding out......the Netflix series was TORTURE for me,...I was also railroaded by the area police, so .....I was PERSANALY and emotionally attached to this situation.
This mini series was heartbreaking to say the least and I am haunted by this because of this reality: what happened to these five boys is not an isolated incident, but what is the norm in this kkkountry. And yes, they were exonerated and rightfully so. But what about the MANY who are still in prison that are INNOCENT? Kids are being locked up every single day for crimes they did not commit or doing MAXIMUM for petty crimes that they committed only because of environmental circumstances (George Jackson, Soledad Brothers). That is the most heartbreaking about this whole situation...what can we do??? How do we change the system that was designed to incarcerate and enslave people of color? Someone please give me guidance on what to do that will make a difference? I'm so afraid that this is just going to fade out and we are going to go back to being sheep - indifferent and afraid to make change because we are so used to being comfortable.
Yes I agree, the reality is is that the system is deeply flawed. And you’re right what happened to these kids is something that happens a lot more than we all know. Their have been studies that have shown that at least 4% percent of people on death row were and are likely innocent but their cases don’t get looked at because of lack of money and public outcry.
You asked what do we do or what can we do? Unfortunately I don’t have the answer I feel that for me I just want the kids who are our future should be taught and educated about things like this so that they can change the system from the inside out. Or at least teach our future generations how to survive the law.
The system is slowly changing but I know not fast enough. Back in the 90s these type of crimes were a guessing game. At least now they have DNA and are stricter about youth interrogations. Obviously this doesn’t change the facts for the people already wrongfully convicted in prison so we also need to fight for them. We need to support prison reform bills, we need to support legalizing drugs and we shouldn’t support #BelieveAllWomen. The evidence is all we should believe
This is why schools should teach you your rights instead of the pythagorean theorem!!!!!
bro most of the people who watched it sayed episode 4 is too cruel

Additional Factors of Significance:
Wise: Knowledge of Walkman
In his February 2002 statement to the inspector general, Reyes purported to have exclusive knowledge that the Central Park jogger had worn a Walkman on the night of her attack. Reyes said he stole the Walkman, and only he knew about it, thereby helping to establish that he was the sole attacker. This was the first time that anyone had reason to focus on the existence of a Walkman. In the course of our review, we uncovered notes from New York City Police Department Detective August Jonza that documented the fact that Kharey Wise knew about the Walkman on April 19, 1989.
When the Central Park jogger was found, there was no Walkman on her body. With the victim in a coma (she subsequently had no memory of the attack or events leading up to it), detectives had no way of knowing she had the Walkman on her at the time of the attack. Although it was her custom to wear a Walkman when jogging, the victim had no memory of whether she did so on that night. When she was informed in 2002 that Reyes had said that he took her Walkman, she told detectives that she owned two Walkmen and one was missing.
Kharey Wise was questioned at 4:50 AM on April 21, 1989 by Detective Jonza, whose notes list what Wise told him regarding “persons present when girl raped.” (Exhibit E.) Included on the list is the reference “Rudy - played with tits/took walkman.” At the bottom of the page, it is noted, “female had pouch for Walkman on her belt.” Wise’s description of the walkman “pouch” is, therefore, similar to Reyes’s description of a “fanny pack.” At the time of this interview, neither Detective Jonza, nor anyone else investigating the events of the evening, had any way of knowing that the jogger had a Walkman, or a pouch. One would have had to encounter the jogger to have that information, a point that has been emphasized by some who have claimed that only Reyes did so. The name “Rudy” was never linked to anyone, and Wise’s reference to the name could represent confusion on his part, or his understanding of the name by which Reyes introduced himself. In any event, whatever else Wise may or may not have known, the important fact is that he knew the jogger had a Walkman, and a “pouch” to put it in.
While your theories are nice my life-long friendship with a man named Armando "Chango" Mejias (the person most responsible for the exoneration of these men) renders all that you've written nil. I'll just tell you to research his story and connection to the CP5 case then pass judgement, those boys were for a lack of a better term railroaded and all that you've presented can't change that. Furthermore, even of you take into account "other" crimes that were committed in the park that night the police and the public at-large were after the perpetrator of the crime against the jogger Patricia Millie, due to the NYPD's incompetence regarding this case Matias Reyes would go on to rape 4 more women murdering one of them if anything that makes the officers in this case his accomplices. Lastly, one thing I've yet to hear from those who use the confessions as proof of guilt and hang on to the theory that Reyes was merely the unnamed sixth perpetrator why in all of those TAPED confessions not one of those then BOYS mention Reyes at any time, ever, not even in passing?
The police fed them information

And the actor named Eastwood on this show one day pulled up to a little Trump Rally in the middle of traffic after this rally was almost over, and he left his kids in the car making a scene for attention trying to start a fight with dudes half his size and a 70 year old man and he spit on a Latina girl and he got arrested. And the Trump Supporters were telling the cops to let him go, which they did and he shook hands with Trump Supporters and left. AS SOON AS THIS FOOL GETS HOME, He goes on social media saying some Trump Supporters called him and his kid The N Word, and also lied saying They were supposedly telling him Fuck Obama- Nobody Did. He blocked everyone who told the truth and said the Latina he spit on was a "White Girl". BUSTER! and a LIAR too! Some Bitchass BS nobody Gangster would have done. He's a Lop and people have pics of him shaking hands with Trump Supporters in Westwood. I AGREE WITH YOU ON THIS MOVIE. Alright, Alright Homie.
This is why I don't believe in the death penalty. If one out of one thousand is innocent? It's bad. Some folks say they are ok with those odds. I say what if that one out of one thousand is you???
💯
16 years? 17 years? he was in the joint for 13 years and some odd months
I hear you you’re right I noticed it the day I uploaded but what’s the difference 1 year or 17 years when you’re innocent?
Ok 😒 he was 16, NOT even a suspect on the list, had a learning disability, and went through GOD KNOWS WHAT?! What's your point?
Kharey Wise
Kharey Wise’s parents were not present for his interview, because he was over the age of sixteen.
Wise made the following claims with respect to suppression of his statements:
• Physical force was used or threatened, thus rendering his admissions involuntary.
• He was falsely promised that he would be released if he talked.
On the use of physical force to obtain his statements, the Court was quite clear:
The record simply does not sustain that. I note that the video taken of Wise after the time of the alleged beating gave no indication of any bruises. (Exhibit A, p.
114)
Nor does the record support Wise’s argument that his will was overborne by shouting, intimidation and the lack of rest, food and drink. Wise slept, ate and received milk when he asked for it. Further, his behavior while in the cell at the 24th Precinct, particularly his laughing and asking his codefendants if they had told the police allegedly humorous incidents involving joggers, belies his contention that he suffered from physical abuse or psychological duress. (Exhibit A, p. 114)
On the issue of false promises the Court was equally clear:
Wise argues that his statements must be suppressed because he was promised that, if he made them, he would be released. The only basis in the record for this proposition is defendant’s own testimony, which I find incredible. His motion to suppress statements is in all respects denied. (Exhibit A, p. 115)
Again you have the very system accused of doing these things investigating itself which does not seem just. How can any of it be unbiased?
I did time so I felt Corey episode, that shit had me crying bro,
I hope all the co's judges and police and inmates involved in this bullshit get what they gave!
The Netflix lied Big time! Was created by Ava.
Go watch the Real Video of the interrogation.
Those kids knew eachother. Even said eachother's name during the interrogation.
That's Messed Up!!!!!! Corruption at its Best!!!!!!
Hopefully they’ll all at least be rich now........that’s the only acceptable offer of penance in my opinion. If my Time, which in our existence equals Life, is taken from me from injustice and made into misery , then the remainder of Time I have left should be better than it would’ve probably been had I lived a normal life.
Im not from the US but i've always heared black ppl complain and blame the system for treating them wrong it came across me in movies media even music.. i remember thinking to myself yh we get it police was racist towards u 4a period of time now its done this is overreacting and it can't be that bad for these last generations, but i must say watching this story broke my heart and made me upset of myself thinking i had a clue what they been throw and was bumfuzzled of the system that would accept nonesence in the name of the law, seeing their prespective they were boxed in. Poor Corey was almost institutionalized to become a criminal i was in tears everytime i see that man thinking he's a legend to pull throw as good hearted human being. After watching this and searching the story i remember thinking to myself oh i get now, they have every right to complain and make sure that shit will never happen again and i would feel so much threatend if someone like Trump as my president. To all racis and colurs keep fighting 4ur rights and i'll say it once again: i get it and u have every right to.
Yo I’m releasing a book called #deservingmercy inspired by the time I got arrested for drugs that didn’t belonged to me while in college. I got charged for PWID marijuana, which is a felony that cannot be expunged.

relevant forensic evidence concerning the presence of hair, blood and semen on some of the defendants’ clothing was presented at trial and has not been refuted. In particular, hair “consistent” with the female jogger’s hair was found on the clothing of Richardson and co-defendant Steven Lopez; blood stains were found on Santana’s right sneaker, Salaam’s jacket and on co-defendant Lopez’s underwear, and semen stains were found on the underwear of McCray and Richardson, and on Santana’s sweatshirt. This evidence is by no means dispositive, but it contradicts various reports that no blood was found on any of the defendants..
Some of the defendants have repeated their admissions of guilt. Santana testified at a parole hearing in 1994 and he was questioned about the crimes he committed on April 19th, 1989. He admitted that he and his friends planned to go to the park that night to rob and assault people. He stated that about seven or eight friends devised the plan. They were prepared to attack whoever they encountered that night in the park. Santana reiterated that they had let one, a couple, go because the man was with his girlfriend. Santana also admitted to beating a man. He denied only the rape.
When McCray went before the parole board in November 1994, he admitted all of his crimes except for the rape of the female jogger. Two of the defendants, Raymond Santana and Kevin Richardson, during interviews conducted by detectives in 2002, admitted their participation in the assaults that did not involve the jogger.
In the first major event, the assault on Antonio Diaz, a total of 23 people were named as participants or as being present. All five defendants were implicated by accomplices and two admitted participation. The second major event was harassment of a couple on a tandem bike. A total of 13 people were named participants or as being present; four of the defendants were implicated by accomplices and admitted participation. The third major event was crossing the 96th Street Transverse road to the reservoir. A total of 17 people were identified as having gone south towards the reservoir. All five defendants were implicated by accomplices and admitted going. The fourth major event was the assault on jogger David Lewis. A total of 11 people were identified as participants or as being present. Four of the defendants were implicated by accomplices and one admitted participation. The fifth major event was the assault on jogger John Loughlin, who was very badly beaten. A total of 19 people were identified as participants or as being present. All five defendants were implicated by accomplices and three admitted participation. Whatever conclusions may be reached regarding Matias Reyes’s claim that he raped the female jogger alone, there seems to be no reason to believe that the defendants were innocent of the other crimes for which they were convicted.

Witness Melody Jackson
Just before trial, in an effort to locate and interview additional witnesses, detectives asked Corey Jackson, a 15-year old friend of Kharey Wise, to come into the precinct to be interviewed. Jackson came into the 25th Precinct with his 27-year old sister Melody. During this interview, Melody Jackson made an unsolicited statement concerning a conversation she had with Kharey some time after the pre-trial hearing. She explained that she was at her sister’s house when the phone rang. She answered the phone and it was Wise calling from Riker’s Island. She said hello and then said to him that she couldn’t believe that they “did that.” Wise repeatedly stated that he didn’t rape anyone, finally saying that he “only held her legs down while Kevin fucked her.” Jackson seemingly thought her information would be helpful to Wise. She was subpoenaed by the District Attorney’s office to testify at trial, and repeated what she had said. Melody Jackson’s interview in 2002 re-confirmed her testimony. She also explained the negative effect her testimony has had on her life, once it became apparent that the testimony inculpated Wise.

DNA doesn't matter what about the woman
Do you know the liberties taken in that show it’s ridiculous to the point of it having almost nothing to do with reality
Witnesses Ronald Williams and Shabazz Head
In the afternoon of April 20,1989, prior to being arrested, Kharey Wise made admissions to two acquaintances, Ronald Williams and Shabazz Head. They approached Wise at 110th Street and Fifth Avenue and Wise told them to get away from him because the
police were after him. Williams and Head walked away. A short time later they encountered him again and asked why the police were after him. Wise replied, “You heard about that woman that was beat up and raped in the park last night. That was us!”
Both Williams and Head were re-interviewed in 2002. Head claimed to have no memory of what he said to the detectives in 1989. Williams gave the same statement that he did in 1989. In addition, he was asked to explain what the statement ”that was us” meant to him. He said that he took that to mean that Wise and others had raped the woman in the park on the night of April 19, 1989.
FitnessByFire There was no DNA evidence on them. They were innocent.
I feel they where not completely innocent 😇 Maybe they didn’t do this crime but I’m sure they did some other crime ....
Korey literally didnt do anything...all he did was go with his friend
Poor guys were out robbing and beating people in the park when they were implicated. I feel truly horrible that these criminals...I mean, nice young men, were charged with rape when all they did was commit assault, battery, and armed robbery. This is truly a sad, heartbreaking story.
They didn’t , the other kids did, shut ur racist ass up

@@30toLife We believe that the issue of coercion was laid to rest authoritatively by the exhaustive opinion of Judge Galligan, following a lengthy Huntley hearing. Whether the defendants’ statements were accurate or not, the methods used in obtaining them were examined by Judge Galligan with utmost care. We have not seen any evidence to suggest that Judge Galligan was in error and our review of available information confirms that police interrogations were conducted professionally and in accordance with applicable rules.
Affirming that neither the police nor the prosecutors engaged in outright coercion, the District Attorney has theorized that facts may have inadvertently been suggested to defendants and witnesses, enabling them to describe the attack on the jogger with sufficient particularity to make their statements credible. To determine whether this sort of thing went on, it is necessary to analyze the consistencies and inconsistencies in the various statements. The considerations are similar to those relevant to the basic question of whether Reyes is to be believed when he says he attacked the jogger alone. Those who believe Reyes emphasize the inconsistencies in the defendants’ statements and those who do not believe him point to the statements’ consistencies and to other supporting evidence.
@@TheSillyMarioBro See I knew you wanted to get something off your chest :) Ok so I read all the comments you posted on here. Now I do not no where to find the sources of this information that you have so if you can give me those sources so that i can look up this information myself that would be great. But going on just what you have gave us here I can admit there is reasonable doubt but, isn't reasonable doubt always present when you are looking?
So lets talk about Judge Galligan, now I dont need to know if he's a stand up guy or not but I know that he was concidered the toughest Jude when it came to sentencing and that he was also known to have that Law-and-order-image. But what really concerns me in what you've shared about this Judge is the fact that he was the one to examine the interrogation methods of the Police department of the 5 and was also the presiding judge of their trial and maybe even the judge that approved the warrants. Now I am not saying that Judge Galligan cannot perform his duties without bias but it is no secret that these judges, district attorneys and police officers all play golf and have lunch together. So to trust that anyone should take Judge Galligan's ruling of no misconduct of the interrogation still leaves doubt when its the system thats being accused investigating itself.
Let me continue responding on your other posts.....
@@TheSillyMarioBro Okay so the police claim they had evidence of blood and hair on the defendants yet there is no evidence proving that it was the joggers blood or hair correct? This evidence was also not presented by the district attorney or allowed admissible during trial correct? If this be the case than according to law we cannot assume they are responsible for the rape because the evidence was not substantial. Now if you are arguing doubt or contradiction of their testimonies and others then maybe, but still no physical evidence to link the 5 to the victim. Now I do not deny that those kids were out there causing havoc and assaulting people in the park this is fact by their own admissions but still they have not admitted to the rape. Now I do not know if Matias Reyes ever admitted or was charged in connection to those same assaults that the 5 and others were accused of but if he was I would say that it does raise suspicion regarding Matias Reyes’s claim that he raped the female jogger alone. But again it still does not prove they (the 5) were involved in the rape.
Now I think the argument here is basically there is doubt because if they are guilty of these other crimes why is it hard to believe that they were involved in the rape. Well I wont say that its not possible but I also wouldn't say that they raped a woman because they beat someone up in the park the same night the rape occurred.
The five are guilty. Kids that were there that night confessed while being arrested before they even learnec about the rape. Also korey would have been arrested any ways he was already on suspect list.
Thank you for your comment I appreciate it! Stay blessed 🙏
I love korey🥺❤️Poot baby
