    EXCELLENT! EXCELLENT! EXCELLENT!

    by bnww

    This is a must-see documentary about the real facts in the Central Park Jogger case. It's shameful how the NYPD and the Manhattan DA's office intentionally mishandled this case and the lives of teenage boys and the injustice to both sets of victims (the young boys and the female jogger that was brutally beaten). A MUST-SEE!!!

    A must see for any New Yorker who was alive in the 80's. The film brings back memories of how ruthless and corrupt New York City was and at times, still is to this day. Especially when you consider that these men unjustly lost their teenage years and the NYPD refuses to admit any wrong doing.

    by aasramon

    A total must see. The film was excellent. I am thankful that the film was done. The diectors did a great job and he young Men are very brave. There is so much that millions of people DONT KNOW about this case. It not nly sheds light on the case but forces us to ask questions about what we deed REAL, LEGAL, JUST. Sometimes we are so scared and angry -we fail to ask relevant questions. The CLUES were all there from day 1.....wow.
