- Ken Burns, co-director and author Sarah Burns, Pulitzer Prize-winning New York Times columnist Jim Dwyer, who covered the case and is interviewed in the film, and the exonerated, including Kevin Richardson, Yusef Salaam, Raymond Santana and Korey Wise -- www.timestalks.com. The panel engages in a conversation about the issues raised by "The Central Park Five," the award-winning documentary about the horrific crime that occurred in Central Park in 1989, the rush to judgment and the lives of those wrongly convicted.
God plz watch over Korey. He's seriously traumatized and in pain. Give him the help he needs soon. Stay strong my brother!!!
So Ali 🙏🏾 Amen
So Ali exactly...So is Antwan, he's really traumatized ..All of them are..I haven't cried this hard in a long time..
Amen!
In Jesus name!!!
God doesn't exist or else he wouldn't have let them go through such a horrible experience which took years away from their life.
And koreys demeanor, with his hands on his legs and head down, so fkn sad. I just want to hug him for a very long time
Stephanie faith my husband and I just said the same thing.
Me too I just want to hug him and tell HIM I LOVE HIM over and over!!!!
I know. So sad. Me too.
That roar, the man is hurting so bad. He didn't even answer the question. God bless him! Antron & Kevin as well. Raymond and Yusef seem to be able to hold it together more but I know they have their moments.
Stephanie faith....me took. 😢
They all went through a lot but Korey story broke me
I cried, I laid in bed helplessly
shanike dauswell I just finished it and Korey’s whole story had me in tears from start to finish . Thank God he made it out alive
Yes all of them deserved justice but Korey had it harder he was at a point where he wanted to die
I was bawling
It seems he is the most affected and it is true little korey died everyday he was locked with those wolves he was a kid a freaken kid with a good heart who followed his friend to comfort him
shanike dauswell I didn't see the movie but, I saw the documentary on PBS a couple of years ago and O felt so bad for Kory Wise you can see the pain he has!
“I died ! Little Korey died everyday for 13 years” - that really hit me deep😭😫 I got so much respect for Korey wow !
Who came to watch this interview just to hear Korey speak? My heart breaks so much for him. I am happy that his story is being heard around the world. He is such a survivor. Stay strong Korey!
Andre 🙋🏼♀️🙋🏼♀️ God please give Korey hope and overwhelming love ❤️. We love you Korey!
Andre ❤️❤️❤️😰😰
My heart bleeds for these guys
🙋🏾♀️
watching these young men go through this hurts so bad!!! I have a son and fear for him everyday. I feel for all of them but for Korey and Antron they have been truly damaged
When korey said “i died, everyday for 13years i died” this broke me completely how can the world do this to someone
Gloria O it's the justice system that torn these men up side down I pray that god heals their hearts and be with them everyday and everywhere they go.Stay strong my black brothers god has yall now in his sweet precious hands.Those who hurt yall they will have their day thru the real judge all mighty god.
😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
I interviewed him and he got to speak as much as he wanted please watch!!
My love and prayers are with these young men’s l cried when I seen the movie..So sad it took this long.....But justice did prevail. God Love is Amazing 🙏🏽😭❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
@ Gloria O l was upset & my Spirit and my heart 💔 was broken.. when I watched the movie. and so broken hearted 💔& when I seen what Korey Wise, had to deal with for 13 years. & he wasn’t even @ the park. Much Luv to you Korey Wise & to the other young men’s 🙏🏽😭🙏🏽😭❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
The interviewer pissed me off the entire time. Stop talking over them. Stop answering for them. Just shut the hell up. It's like they're an exhibit up there on that stage.
Ok I thought the same thing.
Girl!!! 2 and a half minutes in and I'm pissed! Like stfu! Is this an interview??? Tf
And I'm only 2mins in😣
@@racheldolezol7390 omg me too his eyes blink unusually weird
@@dianet898 girl yes!!! Lol
I don't know where to start from but anytime Korey Wise talks, I feel his horrible pain and tears start rolling up. I pray that Linda Fairstein get lock up very soon.
Killed
And the one who i interrogated Korey and beat him
So these guys were locked up then on basis of their allegedly coerced confessions, which is kinda plausible.
And now you suggest to lock up Fairstein because media pictures her as baaaaaad.
Does it register on your radar that it's exactly how these five were convicted according to the series: on the basis of mass hysteria fueled by press? And your answer to this injustice to do exactly similar thing just in the opposite direction.
Nice job!
@@adrianalexandrov7730 not on the basis of mass hysteria but on the basis of what she DID. she deserves to be convicted for what she did to these 5 - who didn't even do this crime. That's the difference. They were innocent, she is guilty. if you want to refuse to see that then you, sir, are part of the problem
The detectives that set up the Central Park five belong in prison.
yes they do Prof Bell
And to this day with all the evidence that exonerates these guys the DA, the police officers as well as the prosecution who were involved continue to promote that these men are infact still guilty and the person who confessed was the 6th rapist.
@Iris E Linda Fairstein, headed up the Sex Crimes Unit that prosecuted these fine gentlemen (fine as in character) 😎
Prof Bell exactly
That's for sure, but at least these guys got paid for the pain and torture they went through at the hands of those policemen.
Yusef Salaam is such a great speaker.
Roland Muskelly yes he is. There is a program that's called Democracy now on WTTW PBS it comes on week nights at midnight on channel 20 but, I live in Chicago and Yousef Salaam goes on there the program is based with the guy who host the program is Native American.
In the series he was ahead in high school. He was always smart
yes he is!
He really is!
Raymon too
I watched the story on Netflix and I just can't stop looking at Korey. I pray for all of them.
His story took me all the way out. I did 8 yrs in prison protecting my mom from a racist man. I was coming out of Sears after using the bathroom and this white man was attacking my mother. Two punches he fell and hit his head and died. My mother and brother past while I was in prison. So this hurt watching this.
@@JB-jf4dv I'm so sorry to hear that. I'm praying for you too. 🙏
@@takeishaarmstead4686 thank you. Even after 4 yrs of therapy I'm still trying to cope and navigate through the time I have left here. One love and thank you again.
J B my heart just broke for you. You didn’t deserve that and I hope you continue to get better. You’re loved 🖤 ✊🏾 and I don’t have to know you to say so.
TaKeisa Armstead I couldn't stop looking at him or get him off my mind. The trauma is written ALL over him. My heart hurts for all the boys but him...MAANN!! I feel I need to just hold him
The pain Korey and Antron carried during this interview is HEART BREAKING
Omg Antron Should've Had a story
Korey 😢😢
Jazzyville man.. it’s absolutely heartbreaking
Really heartbreaking.
I feel it even i m in Pakistan now
Used to study in NYU
I was there when convicted.
@Boris Notbadenov2 They did nothing to her, it was Matias
Am I the only one that feels like Mr.Wise deserves his own movie?
What's the point? The nextflix special already covered everything.
Cee Cee no. He said that was only 75% of what he's been through
I'd watch that
Justin Sharpe idk ask him if u really wanna know
Erica Jean nope your not that is a good ideal
Let's all pray for Korey's healing. The man looks beyond traumatized to this day and it shatters my heart to pieces
RAJEY each time I hear him speak I sense his emotions so strongly I’m overwhelmed with compassion, anger and tears! My heart breaks!
I pray he gets the help he needs God please keep him together
RAJEY I agree but part of the reason he looks so out of it is because he has severe learning and hearing disabilities. It affects the things he does. And this hurts me so much because detectives took advantage of those disabilities when he was 16. But yes, he is most likely traumatized and it’s awful.
@@marissaderespinis616 I think he is out of it because of the anguish... You can see the pain a bunch of evil put on him. I am a 40 year old black man and I cried not only because of what happened, because I understand and can't accept why society is the way it is towards black men.
Brian Ingram I know I just said part of the reason. But I also think it’s incredibly hard to understand him. I agree that a lot of us felt his pain and cried, but I even think what happened to him is even more horrifying and disgusting than any of us would ever understand.
Antron is so angry & Korey is so traumatized.. I pray both of them can find peace within their hearts and properly heal..💔
😭
Antron needs real help. He said that he pray for the death of the people who put in jail. I hope he gets the help he need
@@laphatty1 I really don't blame him because that's part of stuff keeps happening to black people they keep sweeping it under the rug and turning the other cheek
Me too. Maybe they can go on Iyanla fix my life. I feel that she can really help people's lives if they want to be helped and they are ready to heal.
@@laphatty1
I hope Antron prayers come TRUE
We need to allow korey to SPEAK!!! this interviewer getting on my nerve. Let the man speak!
Karla Rayo fuck this interviewer. He’s already been exposed as a racist after that shit he said about Trayvon Martin !
Korey has difficulty articulating his thoughts and does not do well under pressure. These intense type of interview shut him down.
JC C definitely, I guess they only have so much time for these interviews. just wish they would have allowed him to speak and not cut him short. There’s interviews where they give Korey that time to really answer questions.
Such a horrible interviewer, it was more about him than the Exonerated 5. I got tired of listening to him. Thank God we got to see the pain that these men and their families went through.
Exactly!!this interviewer is shocking. He is so insensitive. I would have walked out if I was anh one of the men exonerated.
They are all in pain but Antron is angry and Kory is traumatized...I pray they find peace
And its completely understandable why they both feel that way .
Naiyala Marie Antron even more because his father turned his back on him. And they never got back to the father son bond they had. This whole thing ruin there lives. The lady with the curly hair that helped prosecute them she has not said a word since the trial ended.
Tommy Williams her name is Elisabeth Lederer and she got me mad asf. Lying ass. Cold hearted
Kamaria Cross I no her name I didn't feel like typing it she does not get my respect.
Naiyala Marie I think Antron is still very upset with his Father
“My name is Corey Wise”! He was trying to hold on to every bit of his manhood that he could. We owe these men our prayers and love . You will never be forgotten and your stories will go down in history as one of America’s dirty little secrets that came to light. My heart is broken for them and their lost childhood and innocence. This is yet another deep wound on the backs of black men in America. Slavery is over but jails have become the new plantations
This was so well said. You speak so well for so many.
👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
👊🏿👊🏿
🙌🏾🙌🏾 so true
I could hear Korey wise talk forever, his story is the most heartbreaking and I wish I could take his pain away. May god help him ❤️
Bless my brother KOREY love from UK
Yesss totally agree
melz yaa
It was god that put him in there and god who helped him get out (Isaiah 45:7).
@@undreyvincent8294 Wouldn't it have been easier for him not to be put into that situation in the first place?
*”I don’t feel like I’m alive”* 💔
*The commentar is rude from disturbing korey while he spoke and making jokes of his metaphors for his feelings. Never interrupt a man while he’s telling his story . Especially korey wise !*
Disgraceful that he cut him off....totally insensitive....om so angry
They did the crime.
Blood. Hair. Mud. Confessions.
How did they know what she looked like when interviewed?
You only want them free because of skin. I bet you think OJ was innocent.
@@daftwod I hope you’re joking about this. THEY TOLD them what to say before the “confession tapes” they were innocent from the very beginning.
@@daftwodbro wtf is wrong with you.there was no dna match and they were exonerated.Seriously,get wrecked
when the host cracks small jokes and laughs ...Its inappropriate and demeaning as hell. And its clear that Korey isn't finding a DAMN thing funny to giggle about either!! The injustice that happened to these BOYS (now men) is beyond disgusting and inhumane. There is NOTHING to laugh about here AT ALL. This was an American tragedy.
So sick!
100% agreed
DJ Saucee 💯
Agreed
Yeah that host you can tell he’s a racist bitch smh every time he spoke I can read his spirit smh
I mean no disrespect but, the man interviewing these young men seems to have no sense of the trauma they went through.
Of course he doesnt. He's a white man. They would not have done him like that
Right
It’s nerve racking
Do they ever seem to know? Or care to truly know?
@@kaykay7271 shut up with that bullshit yo. This has nothing to do with race. No journalist can know what these men, and back then BOYS, went through.
Omg Korys part in the When they see us” on Netflix was so hard to watch you can tell he is still hurting
Nique Sade I literally sobbbed when he came on it’s was way too heartbreaking to watch it without shedding tears
Kory don’t see any of this funny and I can’t blame him in this interview, he was such a shorty humans being and he was beaten, most likely raped as they dragged his body 2x’s into closed doors according to the film and turned in a man behind bars smh...he was beatin so bad his walks with a limp, has hearing problems and a speech impediments..so fucking sad man
Nique Sade my heart breaks for Kory!
Nique Sade Yes! Korey still has that scared, lonely, sad little boy in him too. His childhood was completely messed up especially when he had to deal with the death of his sister and his mom seeing him less and less. Ugh all the pain in his tears me apart
Man from his walk. Even down to him not being married or having any kids. So so sad.
Korey is so poetic when he speaks, u can feel his pain, bless all of u guys,
@SelfLoathingCityBoy You are obviously an ignorant person who doesn't do their research. How disappointing..
Hiroko Mitsuu If u did actual research u would understand they r Guilty
@@rachelcomindirk9574 🤭
Adam Miles please show the evidence because last time everyone checked there was no physical evidence lmao
@@zhariahneville8705 Well, idiot, Melody Jackson testified in court that Wise told her that he held the victim down while the others raped her. Jackson volunteered to come forward because she thought she was helping Wise. Try reading the entire story of what they did that night. Before raping the woman they attack a dozen other people. NYC residents were spared while these vermin were in prison.
Age 50 and grow up in Brooklyn and remember this case well. These cops and district attorney should be in prison.
Antares Zodiac yes Linda wrote books and gotten rich. They should put her ass under the jail
Antares Zodiac if we had done the things to white people that have been done to us as blacks we would never ever get through paying them.
Antares Zodiac
YES LORD!!🙏
Agreed
That actor NAILED KOREY! TALKED JUST LIKE HIM WHOA
Yeah he also CO stared in a recent movie called Moonlight. It's a weird movie but a GREAT film
I just said the same thing
He done amazing I really was feeling for the guy in the series
Meshiauna Sharp Even more 😂😂
That's a whole fact, he got the mannerisms and his speech patterns down to the tee
I don't like how this dude is asking these questions, bringing up traumatizing events and sounding similar to the interrogators in the film.
Right!!!
He's trying to be all jokey and what not. He's a complete tool
Courtnee Lee...Courtnee, my sentiments exactly!!! I noticed that same thing! It really appears as if there’s an UNDERCURRENT to his questioning, his delivery, and even his overall demeanor when the camera is focused on him. As a sidebar to my reply this is why I don’t trust, nor put stock into ‘box titles’ such as ‘liberal’, nor ‘conservative’. The interviewer is clearly grappling with the unspoken themes of ‘white rage’, ‘white guilt’, and ‘white fragility’ of his own self-examination which he needs to spend his own time exploring. The indictment on the system of long-held inbred racism is directly linked to this interviewers ethnic group who collectively dictate the system at this time.
He's just trying to make them talk, they're answering, that's his job as a journalist. You can get their demeanor from these questions, that's important
Exactly!
They really took advantage of Korey. They knew he had some intellectual deficits and exploited that. 😞 I’m in tears listening to him....just tears is all I have.
Same
Cops, lawyers, da,, judges, detectives......crooked and corrupt to the core....they get paid to lie daily $$$
Watch the actual interrogation tapes. He was not mistreated. None of them were.
@@demoskunkThe actual interrogation tapes aren’t available to watch. The only taped recordings are of their final confessions. Stop spreading false information. They were exonerated, it’s a fact that the justice system failed them. They wouldn’t have been exonerated and had the biggest lawsuit settlement in NY history if they weren’t innocent.
@@demoskunkAre you really that ignorant? Obviously the abuse that the cops put them through in order to get them to “confess” was not taped.
Lord please please give Antron and Korey peace. Lord please. Give them peace Lord only you can give. Thank you for caring!!! Giving these men a voice. My first time listening and knowing thier stories. The best part. Thank God I never listened or heard before.
Antron
I pray the same Lord
🙏🙏🙏🙏
Even in the statements the kids said Antron’s name incorrectly in their clearly coerced statements.
Amen
Korey looks so uncomfortable in this video💔💔💔my hearts breaking watching him
It breaks my heart to know that no one wanted to help get him out sooner.
stay.Quavios he was so traumatized
I interviewed him and he got to speak as much as he wanted please watch!!
He’s always like this :(
@@britheshooter2101I seen that video and man oh man he really just need to talk to someone one on one. I see when he was in the video he was talking more and he seen that someone was finally listening to him of what he was saying and not over talking him. Nothing but when you had ask for that hug he really needed that so much.
Seriously, who allowed this man to interview these men..like what the entire hell🤦🏾♀️
The only reason I'm watching is for the five. This motherfck is the wrong one. Ugh
Sherri Grant period💯💯
This newspaper did them wrong so I'm not surprised.
I Ain't Bullshittin
The way he pauses every time ''trying to find the right word'' makes me mad, like does he do it on purpose or what?
This interviewer was NOT eqipped nor qualified to handle a story this significant. Most folks can't handle the heavy so it seems like he tried making things light in conversation. Making jokes and offering compliments. The insensitivity made this painful to watch but these men handled themselves very well.
Love you all! 👊🏾👑💯
Kalimah Fiers well said!!! 👸🏽
I agree. This interviewer isnt right... I dont like the vibe of the writer or the interviewer... I wonder is this a o
Ploy just to make money
I definitely noticed this.
Such respect for these incredible men. I cant believe they had to put up with this insensitive interviewer....he is disgraceful
Just by Korey's demeanor you can see that he's still traumatized. My heart hurts for what they went through. 💔
Fucked up
I feel sick, I just can't beleive this happen in the country like US. Sad, just Sad..Lord help them 5
Jewl Gat Yep, and this STILL happens, to this day, in the good ol’ U. S. Of A. much more often than you may think or realize.
ItsTishaDolls my heart brakes thinking about what Mr wise went through and the fact none of us can really fully understand how Korey or any of these other boys (now men) feel about what they went through personally I look up to all these guys but especially Mr. Wise cause from what I've heard about the type of man Mr. Wise is it makes me think this could of been me if I got caught up in a situation like that cause I'm a pretty loyal guy so if my friend is possibly in trouble of course I'd come with them down to the police station to the make there all good and the fact that Korey is still fighting this trauma he suffered from this injustice makes me so fucking angry that we live in a country with a criminal justice system that still does this children good kids who never hurt nobody or brake any laws.
Damii Carlos convicted rapist of a white woman at that
im sorry Antron, Yusef, Korey, Kevin, Raymond and we love u and pray for ur healing
Love from the UK 🇬🇧
I sorry to..hugs guys
I just feel so bad for Kory poor thing he had no one had to fight for his manhood got it stripped from him, assaulted, beaten loss his sister, broken home with a toxic mother, no financial or emotional support, learning disability and god knows what else. He's a survivor with strength beyond belief. You can see he is still in alot of pain from the trauma he went through so young . I pray he finds healing no amount of money could erase what these men had to go through.
Agreed his part was hard tooo watch, i cried
Melanin Goddess so sad they raped him . Took his manhood so wrong !!
I wish nothing but pain and agony on anybody who had anything to do with him being raped beatin or prosecuted...so fucking sad man
Melanin Goddess I didn't see the movie yet but, I did see the documentary on PBS a couple of years ago and I cried my eyes out for Korey Wise you can see the pain he has!
Was he raped when he was 16 the first assault I was confused when I watch it
“You’re looking pretty alive. You’re sounding pretty good.” Tf? Like this man literally has no clue.... Like, that really pissed me off beyond comprehension.
Idiot
Hes talking about his feelings not anything literal.. some people are soo surface and cold!
Oooooooooooooooh I died 😡
Me too!!I am so angry at the tone, smirk, grin, ignorance and insensitivity of this interviewer!!!He is ridiculous!!
Frl bro he tried to shut him up
Korey story was just horrifically traumatizing even from a outsider's perspective. This man was a kid who merely wanted to support his friend and got caught up in the Devils mix. Seeing how small in stature he seems to be in real life also let's me know how much of an easy target he was made out to be by everyone; small, innocent, kid with a disability being wrongly convicted of a rape he knew nothing about.... he was truly shark bait. May God bless and protect this man immensely for the rest of his beautiful life. I have no doubt he will be greatly rewarded and blessed in the higher Kingdom when the time comes.
Golden Girl Korey’s whole demeanor in every interview seems sad like you can still see that he goes through it everyday 😫😫
@@tabithademero9088 He is definitely still suffering from PTSD, they destroyed that man's spirit. I pray he continues to be healed, but unfortunately that trauma will always be in the back of his head.
@jill scottman I understand what you mean, though I believe in God and pray to move on to his kingdom after I leave this Earth, I too ask myself why some people have to endure complete Hell on this Earth, even until the day they die. Truthfully, there are just some things that us humans don't have answers too and probably won't learn until we pass on ourselves. I guess at the end of the day, even when we have been through Hell and back or question our mere existence, while we are still here..you just try to make the best out of what is in front of you.
Golden Girl Yass!!❤️
i can tell Korey will never feel comfortable talking about it mainly because he went through more in prison and refused to tell those people that he did the crime
I also would not be surprised if more happened that he chose not to reveal to Ava.
Korey Wise was the ONLY ONE who was convicted as an adult at the age of 16, he was sent to Riker's Island, everybody else was sent to juvenile detention center.
Need to call them the innocent 5
Glad a lot of ppl feel the same way!!!
Marcelino Mares they need to say there named
aleena young I hear ya, I’m just saying in general. Or something like corruption of 89
Exonerated 5
Lynden Sterling yeah that to
Exonerated 5ive
Somebody needs to throw the wholee interviewer AWAY! He’s making jokes, Hes so rude ,and very disrespectful i feel so bad for them especially Korey💔 i wanna give him a HUGE LONGGGG HUGGGG😊💕
I couldn’t even watch this, it’s just disrespectful on SOME MANY LEVELS!! And whoever hired this man to interview these man, shame on you!! He had such a derogatory manner to him ... this is foul
brownsugarglamour agreed!!! Like there is no empathy or compassion in his voice. Shit, for all I can tell, he probably still thinks they’re guilty!!
😔😤 ''When they see us''....
Gay White Men run the world we live in. SMMFH!🤬
timmy tap ?
I think this man covered it when it happened and he's the asshole in the movie that's writing the article.
To the interviewer: you bring these men to speak on their experience and you constantly cut them off as they are telling their story. The lack of respect for these men. Praying for them.
then rudely cuts them and seeks for Sara to explain
and you can clearly see Korey Wise was scarred far worse than any of them. So sad
he has brain damage from solitary
Smooth HIttaz Amir what are you being foreal
@@smoothhittazamir9532 he was like that before prison, but prison certainly didn't help
The pain in Antron’s voice ... I just hope God Blesses him and he is able to let that bitterness go so he can live the rest of his life in freedom. It really spoke to me when he said to Raymond “I got the house and the car but you got it better than me” being rich in material things doesn’t equal peace or joy in any way!
Edit: I do not like how the interviewer cut Korey off he needed that time to talk!
Didn’t like that host at all! His body language and attitude spoke volumes
I see it too. Speaks volumes...
for real. very condescending
Ce Ce I agree, his body language was horrible. It almost felt like the police talking to them again wanting them to prove them self
Like the shit was funny.. smh
Me either!
Korey seems like a wholehearted guy, I feel for them all but Korey seems to be a special person.
They are ALL Special, even Korey, but God please🙏🙏help him😢😢He truly looks like he could explode and I certainly can't blame him. I hope each and every one of these Men will continue to seek counseling. I know nothing can ever erase their lives that were so tragically stolen from them, but just to be able to talk to someone and release some of their agony and pain. God Bless them ALL🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
He suffered the most.
The fact that their story is intertwined with the current president just confirms that we are still fighting for our freedom.
Exactly, its still close to home
Right
thy confessed and knew things the po-po didn't. Sure they didn't nut on her fine. But one of them had their auntie tell the po-po that he didn't rape her, he just held her down. Come on, man. Come on.
@@TheGuerillapatriot your response alone speaks volumes about your character. The question you need to ask yourself is why did they confess? Oh right, because they were COERCED. It's definitely not that hard to comprehend.
@@takataparker6530 the relative was coerced? The relative that said that the kid only held the girl down but he didn't rape the jogger?
Korey is deeply traumatised up until this day and it breaks my heart. It's painful hearing him speak. I hope he finds the peace within himself that he needs. Constantly sending all my love to these five strong men. 💖
We have to pray not only for Korey but for them all.
Agree.....Cops, lawyers, da,, judges, detectives......crooked and corrupt to the core....they get paid to lie daily $$$
I can't get this story off my mind. What makes it worst is this isnt fiction. This is real!! ☹️😭 I haven't been right emotionally since.
Divinity222 I know 😥 but we will ❤️
I feel the same way... This had definitely changed me in so many ways...I can't even imagine what it's like for these men and their families
Me either, I’ve even went as far as to watch Mattias Reyes interviews! I’m so disgusted by the whole tragedy
Yes,,, heartbreaking, painful, & disturbing!!!
Me too!! Me too!!.... My heart breaks n so many pieces💔. Can't stop thinking abt it
Please...do not allow this interviewer to conduct such ‘sensitive’ interviews.
The interviewer is a piece of work...TRASH to say the least
I00% agree horrible and insensitive interviewer.
Man I kept thinking they needed another interviewer ! smh
I thought I was the only one who was thinking this.... guy is full of himself you can tell... disgusting.
I agree!
The RACIST New York city of 1989 is the RACIST New York city of 2019. The interviewer reminds me of a NYPD detective. BIG UP THE 5 LIONS✊🏿.
True
Equinox 95 in the beginning the interviewer had the nerve to say it’s completely different like no! WE ARE STILL GOING THROUGH THIS!
@@destinyjohnson1566 The interviewer wanted to soften the injustice of the American legal system and tried to paint a picture of a transformed New York City and America. Some things unfortunately never change that's what the interviewer will never understand. How many more are locked up going through the same thing or worse as we speak🤔.
Equinox 95 the interview is a suspected white racist who will uphold his racist laws. He appeared to be in psychical pain trying to pretend he is interested in the injustice these men experienced as teenagers.
Maybe more so, gentrified to the Max
Jim Dwyer is disgraceful in this interview, this is uncomfortable to watch. I'm so glad Ava DuVernay brought some light to this story in an authentic way in When They See Us.
Rachel Coleman He’s also annoying in 9/11 documentary’s as well
Boris Notbadenov2 For real after 30 years people still try to defend a baseless case after so much evidence has proven otherwise.
Cringe at "fellas" and his clueless explanation of the song Wild Thing for Wilding. Umm no, don't whitesplain in interviews to those who actually experienced it.
What happened to all of them was awful , but Korey just stands out the most they really destroyed his spirit
Raquel’s Royalty His name is spelled Korey. He has been through a lot at least we can get his name right.
kimmy D what does that have to do with anything ? Just because I spelled the first letter of his name with a C instead of a K wow okay my bad
Raquel’s Royalty The man has been disrespected a large part of his life. Let’s respect him enough to spell his name right. I meant no disrespect to you. How do you feel when your name is spelled incorrectly or mispronounced.
kimmy D I do not mean to come off as disrespectful especially for how I spelled his name , it was a mistake , what that man went through was horrific to the point where it at times it keeps me up at night so with me misspelling his name I meant no harm .
Raquel’s Royalty Of course you didn’t mean any harm. We all hurt for him. I do not doubt that your heart is in the right place. I noticed that a lot of people spelled his name wrong on here and I was hoping some would see my comment and edit the misspelling. That is all. Please forgive me if i came off as attacking you personally. That was not my intention.
These men never got a public apology; UNBELIEVABLE ' YET BELIEVABLE...
But was quick to slander them tho

“April 19th 1989, Yusef Salem, what happened that night, where were you?” 🙄🗣WTF kind of question is that start off with?!?! He sound like those dirty detectives who coerced all of them. 🤦🏽♀️🤬🤬🤬🤬
Nay Nay I thought I was the only one who thought that as it so effortlessly floated out of his fucking mouth! I was like really bruh?
The most bad was when he asked: do you remember this night😡 it's just so disrespectful
Yea he's trying not to be one of them but he is
I’d beat tf out this nigga 😐 stop playing wit them
He's trying to get contradictions out of them
Why would you ask Korey if he's friends today knowing DAMN WELL he was the one excluded from the other boys. This dude literally did like zero actual research.
Why...is this interviewer smiling so much!! There is absolutley nothing to smile about while listening to these men recounting their experience.😪😪
And did you notice how his tactic to calm down Korey was to compliment him as if to say Korey is like a pretty boy who is into his looks? Then laughs it off..... Stay woke Black people (no shade on others) but y’all know we are the most hated for our skin prior to, then and maybe forever.
Allison Ferguson some people don’t know how to act in certain situations. He’s a host.. I dunno americans smile a lot. He maybe is trying to lighten the mood but not really succeeding.
He knows they were involved
@@daftwod because hes ignorant just like u
@Eber Yahuan You're acting fragile though. To you, there is nothing wrong with only 1 person being guilty in a gang rape case. That's impossible.
I dont care about race, you do.
Korey was the only one not laughing this not a laughing matter this is real life situations I won’t be laughing neither being an accident black 16 year old boy getting 13+ years in prison lord I love Korey I’m so sorry 🥺
Unfortunately for the story, he was and is guilty. So many women with bleeding hearts for a rapist.
@@gbuz5789 What are you talking about?
@@rahardajohnson6053 The Central Park Five are guilty. There is a ton of evidence, including their confessions. That is why they were found guilty by a mostly black and Hispanic jury. Their conviction was vacated which means they need a new trial but there won't be a new trial because that would cause a riot. Women have a natural affinity for bad men. This is evolutionary due to women being taken by the conquering tribes while their men were killed. (Better to survive with the winners than die with the losers.)
G Buz there were the confession tapes which had the speculation of coercion. So if you take that out then what do you have? There was NO PHYSICAL DNA EVIDENCE. On the body or the crime scene. How are 30 boys supposedly gonna rape a woman or be accomplices then leave no trace especially as inexperienced in crime as they were? I have an open mind so I’m open to conversation and articles.
G Buz coerced confessions?? And not a single piece of their semen was found in the sock found at the scene of the crime... AND the fact that the found evidence from every angle on matia reyes.... Oh yea that sounds guilty to me or maybe your just fucking stupid
Not to take away from the rest of these kings. But Korey & Antron Jeez, I pray for God to give them inner peace and Joy. Wooow Specially Korey!!
You can still see the pain in Kory's face!
Andy Velasquez yep so sad!
Andy Velasquez black people are not prepared to handle america. We are not taught the danger of living in america being black. I'm a 66 year old black woman born in Mississippi, I came in the segregation erra,we knew to go to the black only side of America, the young people these days are not aware of things until they find themselves entwined in a situation like travon martin, Micheal Brown, because signs and barriers are not openly displayed. You can't expect the youth to know their parents are not aware. When I was a teen we knew there certain places we could not go in the city where we lived. Because there was visible signs that said no negroes allowed. Now there's so called desegregation,there's no signs
But you color is a barrier that make you a target for the in the world. It sad that the system make an example out the black child and treats them as if they are adults. The same system on the other hand makes excuses for the white child and gives them the benefit of the doubt. The black people in america are opressed, chronically depressed and for some of.us we self medicate .
It's sad
@@loisking5116 sadly as a young black man i feel as if anywhere in the world as a minority this rule still applies...i recently came to Canada to study and i feel the looks as well i stick to myself im not taking any chances
Yea you can tell he’s sad and angry but he keeps his composer very well
Koreys story broke me! You see the pain all over his face 😭😢😢 Wish I could meet him.. stay strong Korey!! You are loved!! ❤️
So true!
I wish I could just give them all a big hug!! Im so sorry for what they went through smh
Why to give him some ass
Jim Wtf?
Yesss I'm still crying for him 😭😭😭😭🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
This host is terrible! No empathy, just judgemental, condescending and rude! Like he thinks they are guilty.
The host should also be ashamed of himself for his demeanor while interviewing. He is condescending and seems heartless...
Yes! He seem to be more like that when he was talking to Korey. Very condescending towards him.
I’m upset knowing they suffered being interviewed by this man🙄
I think he's trying to provoke emotion from the watchers but he's doing a really bad job. He's coming across as a very rude know it all...thinks he knows better the the 5 and talks himself way too much. I agree this host sucks. #prisonforLindaFairstein #investigateLindaFairsteincases #changelawsofcriminalsbehindbadges
Omg thank God someone said something. I am trying to listen to the victims and his constant smirk and lack of sensitivity is annoying me to my core.
Korey, my heart break completely for him. I pray that he is protected and led to happiness for all the rest of his life. He is such a pure soul. :'( i couldnt stop looking at him , analyzing, this whole interview as I was a psychology major.
What do you think of his original confession tape?
This interviewer was beyond disrespectful. Didn't even have to say anything his demeanor said it all
I just want to knock the fuck out of him. He don't care about these young men.
???
janie johnson when he gets up I’ll knock him out after you
He just seemed nervous. I wouldn't condemn him.
You can just see and feel the hurt when Antron & Korey talk! 🙁 These poor men.
@ A penny? They played the race card and got 50 million. Now they want another 50.
Bonnie Archie you do know that they didn't commit the crime that they went to jail for right? The real person that did it confessed and the only DNA was from the man that actually did this horrific crime. So i am very confused by your comment.
@ Bitch you don't have a clue
@@jf8050 the race card? Dude what are you talking about they did time for a crime they did not do. That's why they were payed out.
It’s obvious that the people that are pointing the finger at these men, never bothered to listen or read the truth. How sad that the CP5 had to go through all of this, they will probably never heal from this.
I came to here Korey, Yusef, Raymond, Antron, and Kevin NOT these talkative hosts who come across insensitive
Anyé Cherieal white privilege makes them unaware, uncaring and nonchalant about other’s pain.
Ms Sweets Preachhhh
Exactly what i thought n have said. If Oprah interviewed them she would have taken a different approach.
"Exonerated Five" ! Make that viral. Forget Central Park 5 !!!
Visable Thought honestly, Central Park 5 just takes out the purpose and meaning of their personal lives
Word Up
You really have a point there. I agree with you.
THE INNOCENT FIVE
Why did Korey’s female African American friend swear in court that he told her he held the jogger’s arms while she was raped?
I pray Korey finds his joy again!! He went through so much!!
STREET LIVE TV WITH THE REALEST LADAWN agreed but thanks to him the situation turned out the way it is now
Corey has PTSD TO THE EXTREME!! SMH
Errica Thomas they all do🙏🏽
Absolutely. Prayers up.
He had it the worst out of all the 5
For some reason I feel as though that first guard probably sexually abused him too for some reason .. that’s personal but damn 😩😩😩
Your girl Q right, I got that vibe too. whenever he said "let me know what you can do for me" I felt extremely uncomfortable.
U can look at him and c the pain
This interviewer makes this hard to finish watching like fr. It's painful.
Because???
U In Charlotte?
This is the most insensitive, unprofessional, entitled interview I've ever watched. God Bless you all.

True they need 40 million each.
I hate this whole interview. Feels like a social experiment. The pain in Kory's eyes😢
.
It was a social experiment. To appease and satiate the white audience. White people could care less about "our" suffering. They're entertained by it. Shameful. And shame on them.
@@wanZ... A sad truth.
@@wanZ... white supremacy is such a woeful state of mind. So entrenched in being entertained, that they don't even see their own demise. We are nothing but fodder to them. To be used, abused and discarded. But one day they will reap the atrocities a thousand fold😏
Christopher Givans yes I’m sensing that too!
Damn right
I absolutely hate this interview. He show no sympathy or emotion in his questions. It seems like they are being terrorized with questions again....
I balled my eyes out when Cory broke down to the CO, that part hurt my heart bad!!! I hope he’s doing well these days!
😪💙😪
It’s soooo unforgivable 😔
His part was the most difficult to watch. I think this story will haunt me for the rest of my life.
Omg I couldn't sleep after watching .. Korey's experience broke my heart💔💔💔
I’m so glad that the CO actually hugged him instead of attacking him 😩
STOP letting these WHITE people interview theses men, they are insensitive condescending & belittling. The whole demeanor of this interview feels forced! These men went through something beyond traumatic (especially korey🙏🏽) they deserve to be able to tell there stories in a safe space with a interviewer who understands what it’s like to be black in America. These interviewers could never relate or even begin sympathize what our black/latino men go through back then and even now today. I feel uncomfortable for them, especially korey poor thing, they tried to break this man I know the last thing he probably wanted was to have relive his trauma through these interviews. The interviewer reminds me of trump 🚮🤬
Isnt that a racist comment? But that's okay, you can get away with it because your black right?
DashedByDes no cap
Well said beautiful 🌸
DashedByDes I 100% agree. The interviewer obviously lack empathy. He’s truly Trump. I would never be interviewed by a white person after that. White folks are quick to cash in after the fact. Its what those white people on the stage are doing.
Agree ❤️
Why haven't the prosecutor and the NY Police department haven't made an apology to these young men and admitted that they had the wrong men in this case
Because they still believe they're guilty. They even voiced their concerns that Raymond coerced Matias Reyes to admit to the rape, even with Reyes' incontrovertible DNA evidence present. What a fucking travesty.
@@hyzercreek no these particular kids didnt you piece of SHIT. Yusef was targeted bc he fit the description of a tall kid with a flattop..In the 80s we all had flattop fades. Korey spent 13yrs in prison bc the cops asked if he wanted to go down to the station with his friend!
@@hyzercreek nevermind the fact that 3 of the detectives were later found guilty of different charges later on
@@hyzercreek youre a piece of SHIT. Korey spent 13yrs in prison bc the cops asked if he wanted to go down to the station with his friend.

@@audrafolkes5978 just gonna say that
They held down the raped woman though.
@@Kimkay7 i look at your profile pic lol you ugly bitch.
I can hardly contain the level of disappointment with this interviewer. The PURPOSE is to hear their story, their experiences, not his commentary or analysis of their story. Annoyed.
Same. The interviewer can go.
Agreed
Exactly.
The compassion question sent me to another place. How can they have compassion at that time when they’re going through hell on earth for something they did not do?
Korey is so broken and he’s a good looking guy.
Samuel Lavon naw him being so young, being raped and molested can be so confusing for a kid, it can turn you that way ...so sad tho
Samuel Lavon Unfortunately many people do begin to doubt their sexuality when they are raped or molested at a very young age.
Samuel Lavon I’m telling you that you believe that but I know kids who were molested during the most confused times in their life and have been emasculated so they see themselves as more of a bitch or woman than they ever could see themselves as a man ..
@Samuel Lavon I don't think he has had any children. He's so traumatized
Samuel Lavon Every person is different and everyone deals with trauma different. You can’t just throw everyone into the same box. For the record. I never said that it causes a person to be gay. I said it can cause them to question or become doubtful about their sexuality.
The white savior undertone of this interview was uncomfortable. “I can’t believe this language was used in 1989”??? They use the same language today!!! Completely tone deaf the current state of affairs. I’m so sick of white ppl pretending these indiscretions are merely things of the past. We have a LONG way to go. So happy that Ava showed their side of things.
Heavy Heavy observation!!
That NY Times interviewer guy reeks of slime. Something tells me he was part of the media that disgraced those guys back in 1989.
Big Facts
Super facts I just want to slap him
Fat Facts
Don't be so hard on him. EVERYONE (media and public) had it in for the CP5 in the beginning. There was NO ONE on their side when it started. The police caught these kids and convinced themselves they were guilty, invented a story of how the rape occurred, and got confessions from all of them telling them all the while that if they just confessed they could go home! The media had been snowed by the police and DA. Now in retrospect, after the real rapist confessed, it seems obvious that the police/DA ignored faulty timelines, lack of DNA evidence, lack of non-participant witnesses, disparities in the five confessions, and the fact that juveniles had been aggressively interrogated for up to 30 hours without food or a lawyer. But confessions, even under highly questionable circustances carry A LOT of weight. It is a shame that the real rapist was able to continued to assault women while these poor kids rotted in prison. One question I have: Why do we ASK the accused if they want a lawyer and allow them to speak w/o one? Wouldn't it be better to REQUIRE a lawyer be present? It might have speared these poor kids 7-11 years in prison!!!
He has freely admitted that. He says in the documentary that he regrets his involvement in the media onslaught back in 1989 and that he wishes that he had expressed his doubts about the boy's guilt. He was also one of the first journalists to question the official story. I felt that he was fine and that his questions were fair. He doesn't seem like an natural interviewer.
So glad people are as annoyed with the interviewer as I am 😑 He’s racist and he’s talking wayyy too much!
Marshé Beachum also annoying
I mean... "Excuse me, little girl..." when she expressed wanting to make a doc
Marshé Beachum howmis he racist exactly? He is annoying... Seems pretentious. However, he clearly believes these mean are innocent. He treated them very respectfully. Please post the spot or spots in this interview where you see racism so I can see to which you're referring? Truly puzzled.
Funny how racists try to defend other people being racist.
@@VonDontSpam funny how no one can say how someone is racist yet always spew racism. If everything is racist nothing is. Be kind
i will smack this interviewer, he pissed me off when he cut korey off.
I think he cut Korey off because it looks like he was about to break down. My heart hurts for him. Cannot begin to understand the pain he went and is going thru.
No disrespect most Nubian queen they should not be telling the paleface devil s what they went through every time we tell the devil s our story they make a mockery out of it
Bruce Halstead are you mad in the head or something? ‘Pale face devils’, is that your attempt at being racist to white people? 😂😂 that’s pathetic man, seriously, sort your life out
if the shoe fits where it son if it was no racism than all the black men wouldn't be in prison and that kkk president wouldn't say the stuff he said out his stupid ass mouth if there wasn't racism then my black brother s would nt be getting shot by the kkk cops if it wasn't racism then it would have never been slavery thanks to you paleface face people you people started this racist bullshit not us
Also you paleface devils do just like your father Satan you killed steal and destroy God's world like old saying goes you want the history of paleface just follow the blood trail

i didnt like when corey was speaking at 1:1:03 the interviewer cut him off when he was about to get emotional! let him speak! let him say what he say to say no matter what's the time or questions or whatever! corey has a lot to say! you can see it in his eyes! "you seem pretty alive to me" like stfu who do you think you are! making a joke when he is speaking his feeling! someone please fire this man
Dina Sukar the disrespect man.!
He asked him another question. Korey has been through so much and he is clearly on the spectrum. I just feel that the New York Times writer is not a natural interviewer. There was no malice on his part.
Exactly!!
“Kevin, do you remember that night “? Stupid question
Right he sounds ridiculous
Right
They shouldn't be on this white supremacist show. They're just being nosey as if they don't understand how this white supremacist system did these men.
SUPER STUPID
I would have been like nah I don’t remember being accused of something I didn’t do and sent to jail for years as an innocent child and being. Called rapist and beaten by the justice system nah that totally slipped my mind.
Omg Kory, they broke his spirit...
I'm here in South Africa, this is breaking my Spirit , my whole heart and Love goes out to the guys , I'm so bitter
I think they made Kory stronger. Mom used to say “what doesn’t kill you, makes you stronger”.
So sad
... I'm working on my own stuff.
There are 2 paths: feeling sorry for myself *or* setting that aside, at least just a little, and instead trying to learn from what happened to me and then help others (in addition to taking care of myself physical/emotionally/mentally).
This way of thinking about what's happened to me has been the only thing that's saved me, in addition to thinking (?knowing?) that I'm not alone on this path.
Bless you men. Bless all our children.
@@profbell7931 Korey makes the most sense. The way he frames his sentences are almost poetic. People mock him but don't take his hearing loss into account.
Korey needs the longest hug rn..
Every black young man needs to see this film it's very relevant even in 2019.
FACTS Hi Beautiful
My mom was saying the same thing
Dria Li yes and Hispanic kids too
I'm so glad Antron spoke up abut how it really effected him. He'll will never be normal or what he thinks is normal again. Prayers go up to all of them.
NOTE TO INTERVIEWER: THIS WASN'T A BEDTIME "FICTIONAL STORY", AND THE STORY ISN'T ABOUT YOU!
Host should not have cut Corey off as he was talking about little Corey dying..."You look alive now". Corey needed to release that. What it felt like he was in effect saying that it was a stranger, Reyes, who ultimately saved him from the hell of incarceration, not his friend who he accompanied to the interrogation...he felt abandoned.
factsssssssssss
C C right!
He feels like if it wasn't for the man that did the crime he would still be n prison!
I cried myself to sleep last night, after viewing "How they see us". I have two sons, this pain was real to me. United We stand. There's a purpose for your pain. Stay strong until the end. Love and HONOR to You all. God has the final word.

But he did lift him up saying he was the better looking of them at the time and looked the youngest. Korey did smile through the pain. I love Korey now. He was a sharp young 16 year old and still is. My man. Love this guy
Not feeling the interviewer. He doesn’t seem compassionate , a few of his questions were off and his questions came off interrogating.
Really sad to listen to Antron McCray. He's so bitter, and rightfully so.
Yes. He is still angry and hasnt forgiven his father
L. Robinson very,! He needs to forgive his father
My heart cries for Antron as well, the hurt that they caused him.
I am feeling so sad for Korey, u can tell in his voice and reactions that this is painful for him.To be a child and then thrown into an adult prison and having to survive 13 yrs of hell. No amount of money can be given to what these men have been through, prayers for these men and hope they get the healing they deserve.
Will Ganness your source is Wikipedia... interesting
They think money is just going to make people feel better but they have no idea what these men/kids at the time had to go through and the shit makes me cry and mad because they went through hell especially kory who had to go to rikers island top 3 worst prison in the world like wtf I feel so bad for them and nobody care about the fact they are innocent ion see no papers, media going crazy now or even back in 2002 shaking my head
Anna Vargas he was 16 legally but with his mental state and disability he was no older than Kevin the youngest at 14 or younger. The police really took advantage, used and abused their power.
