What do you think? What will be the story of the show? If it is crime and thriller drama, then it must be something about murder or killing. But no, it is about injustice, yes, injustice against African Americans or in common people’s language “blacks”. It shows that the constitution can also be wrong, and can also do injustice. This story revolves around five African American men accused in a false case by the white woman, Trisha Meili. The real story of Central Park, New York, is named “Central Park Five”.
Set in 1989, 19 April was the date, the young lady banker, Trisha was jogging through Central Park when that crime happened. According to the “white woman”, she was beaten and raped by five African American teens, named Antron McCray, Yusef Salaam, Kevin Richardson, Korey Wise, and Raymond Santana. They all were imprisoned by the police, the teens wanted to prove their innocence but the police did not even listen to their part of the story.
They even made a false statement as said by the police and four of them were imprisoned.
