I can't tell if it's all of them suing him or just one. But Trump continues to lie and hurt people and they continue to sue him.



"The men, who were teenagers when they were arrested, said in a lawsuit filed Monday in federal court in Philadelphia that Trump defamed them by saying during the debate that they had pleaded guilty when they hadn’t. Trump also made erroneous comments during the debate suggesting someone had been killed during the 1989 incident."

Good!!! More lies from the malignant narcissist scumbag piece of shit. Where's paradoxical when you need him.
 
I don't believe such a defamation lawsuit is at all affected by the SC immunity ruling.

Trump is not the president.

God. That we even need to think about that now is preposterous.
 
I think they've got a a very good case and hope they take him to the cleaners.

Defendant Trump’s statements were false and defamatory in numerous respects,” attorneys for the men, now all in their 50s, wrote in the lawsuit filed in federal court in Philadelphia. “Plaintiffs never pled guilty to the Central Park assaults. Plaintiffs all pled not guilty and maintained their innocence throughout their trial and incarceration, as well as after they were released from prison.”

“None of the victims of the Central Park assaults were killed,” the lawyers for Yusef Salaam, Raymond Santana, Kevin Richardson, Antron Brown and Korey Wise wrote.

On the face of it, this is a case that even lawyers of the quality that Mr Trump relies on can win in a walk.

A group of men who were exonerated in the rape and assault of a woman in Central Park in 1989 have sued Donald Trump for continuing to suggest that they are guilty, including at the presidential debate in Philadelphia last month.

The Central Park Five alleged in a federal defamation lawsuit filed in Pennsylvania that Trump falsely claimed during his debate against Vice President Kamala Harris that the men pleaded guilty after being charged in the case as teenagers and that they had killed someone. The defendants in fact were cleared of wrongdoing. And the victim of the infamous attack suffered life-threatening injuries but survived....

After a re-investigation of the case and after another suspect’s DNA confirmed his involvement, the defendants, who were Black and Latino, were cleared of wrongdoing. By then, they had served years in prison....

“We have someone who wants to be president who has consistently over the course of his career attempted to use race to divide the American people,” Harris said.

Trump issued a muddled response, first suggesting that the teens pleaded guilty before he seemingly backtracked.

“They admitted — they said, they pled guilty. And I said, well, if they pled guilty they badly hurt a person, killed a person ultimately,” Trump said. “And if they pled guilty — then they pled we’re not guilty.”...

The most cost effective legal advice that Mr Trump can receive at this time with respect to this matter is "Pull out your cheque book and ask 'How much?'.".
