This is unbelievable but par for the course for cities run by liberals: Rapists must be rewarded immensely. These guys are guilty as sin, they admitted the rape to cops and bragged about it to their friends but liberals felt sorry for them....oh boo hoo hooo...so they took the word of ONE convict sitting in prison who said he did the rape not them. Ann Coulter wrote a good article on this..........

Madness. Is it any wonder the Holder ferals think they are accountable for nothing, and that they can get away with anything?

Just a recap of what these nice boys did:

“The 28-year-old investment banker Trisha Meili was violently assaulted while jogging in the park. She was raped and beaten almost to death. When found about four hours later at 1:30 am, she was suffering from severe hypothermia and blood loss from multiple lacerations and internal bleeding, and her skull had been fractured so badly that her left eye was removed from the socket. The initial medical prognosis was that she would die or, at best, remain in a permanent coma due to her injuries. Remarkably, she largely recovered, with some lingering disabilities related to balance and loss of vision.”

The five men who were wrongfully jailed for the 1986 rape of a Central Park jogger are pursuing $52 million in damages from the state in the Court of Claims after winning a landmark $41 million settlement from the city

The only thing that's wrong is that they're out walking around.

These guys are guilty as sin, they admitted the rape to cops and bragged about it to their friends...

Umm, no, Matias Reyes was the true rapist as proven by DNA tests.

Infuriating.

These guys are guilty as sin, they admitted the rape to cops and bragged about it to their friends but liberals felt sorry for them....oh boo hoo hooo...so they took the word of ONE convict sitting in prison who said he did the rape not them.

And the fact that DNA test proved it was the ONE convict sitting in prison means nothing?

Having said that, these guys were railroaded but I also think they received a fair settlement for what happened to them. A settlement that they agreed to. Another $50 million is overkill and I'm sure is due in no small part to some lawyer looking for a payday.

A DNA test tied the convict to the rape.

The city does not have sovereign immunity, but the State does.

Will they waive it?

Have the 5 already spent the $41 mil?
