Exonerated "Central Park Five" attorney Shanin Specter on their defamation lawsuit against former President Trump

Shanin Specter, attorney for the exonerated "Central Park Five" joins Michael to discuss the defamation suit filed against former President Trump for what he said about them in a September 2024 presidential debate. The group of men were accused and convicted of raping and beating a woman in New York City in 1989. The convictions were vacated in 2002 after someone else confessed to the crime. Specter says had Trump immediately retracted and apologized after his comments in the debate with VP Kamala Harris, they would not have filed the lawsuit. Original air date 22 October 2024.
