(11,589 posts)4. Trump called for a re-instatement of the death penalty for the *Central Park Jogger case*
DONALD TRUMP AND THE CENTRAL PARK FIVE
(snip)
And, in early May, 1989, Donald Trump took out a full-page ad in the Daily News to say what he thought he knew about the case. Trump was on the front page of the papers often enough that season; the Posts SPLIT! headline marking the end of his marriage would help fill the tabloid space between the teen-agers arrest and their conviction, as did MARLA BOASTS TO HER PALS ABOUT DONALD: BEST SEX IVE EVER HAD,? which quoted his then-mistress and second wife; soon, there was also coverage of his baroque business failures. Perhaps he thought it gave him gravitas, that spring, to weigh in on the character of the teen-agers in the park: How can our great society tolerate the continued brutalization of its citizens by crazed misfits? Criminals must be told that their CIVIL LIBERTIES END WHEN AN ATTACK ON OUR SAFETY BEGINS! And his headline suggested what ought to be done with them:
BRING BACK THE DEATH PENALTY.
BRING BACK OUR POLICE!
They were all innocent. Trump wanted them all dead.
