NY' legal system is a hell hole and there is nothing lil Bloomie can or cares to do about it.
I read that article; it blew me away. But do you think Morgenthau is so petty, that he would rape Lady Justice, just to get Linda Fairstein's goat, or that he assigned the job of writing that travesty of a report to Nancy Ryan, because he wanted to help out the attackers, and knew that the unscrupulous Ryan would get the job done?
He may be looking ahead to his NY Times obit, which will play wonderfully if he just toes this line.
Does this really surprise you?
And be honest, now.
New York City; it's all yours.
...& you can have it.
I do not believe the new story. Somehow, some way, the DNA was switched. Check the chain of evidence, baby. Somebody sympathetic to the rapists tampered with it.
If you read the press at the time (particularly the NY Post which covered it daily and extensively), there was absolutely no doubt that all these scumbags were responsible. When they are all rotting in hell, they can roast marshmallows over their nice, toasty fire pit with the Carr Brothers.
It's truly frightening that a psychotic like Reyes can be taken "seriously" -- there was no way he did all that damage to the jogger himself. Now the rest of these ba$tards will sue the city, and reap millions for their "damages" they incurred.
The questions that inquiring minds should be asking re the "new suspect" -- Matias Reyes -- are:
Who put him up to this?
Who will benefit from this?
If not him, perhaps his family?
Was he paid to "come forward"?
Somehow, I don't believe this story is over.
As for me, I still believe those boys (do civilized people refer to such animals as "boys"?) were guilty as sin.
Cheers!

Those kids were animals and that had nothing to do with their race it was their character..
Maybe so. I know firsthand, that if you're a white man who has has endured a racial assault in Manhattan, you need a lawyer TO DEFEND YOU from Morgenthau's ADAs. If a phony "eyewitness" lies to screw you, they'll take his word unquestioned, but if a perfectly righteous eyewitness comes forward independent of you, telling them the same story you did ... they'll ignore him.
What the hell? There is no more political DA anywhere in the country than him,and he takes his orders directly from the DNC and the NYS Dim Party. He and his "class" are immume to this type of thing happening to them and theirs. They live in buildings with police guards,and have bodyguards anytime they go anywhere in or near the city. The only people put in any danger by things like this are "lesser people".
There's an old adage that says, "Never pick a fight with a guy who buys ink by the barrel." But when both of the guys fighting buy their ink by the barrel, interesting things could happen. There are lots of business advantages conferred upon the newspaper of record so I could see some Times competitor trying to undermine their credibility in a move to assume that position themselves. This Central Park Jogger thing could be just the thing that could be used to begin to destroy the credibility of The Times, or at least that would be my hope. It is sufficiently non-political and sufficiently absurd that there's a shot.

Jesse has been out of sight, out of mind, but Rev. Al appeared the day after Morgenthau's official announcement, demanding criminal investigations and prosecutions of the detectives and prosecutors who worked on the case. You can't make this stuff up.

Actually, once I thought about my own experience as a crime victim with Morgenthau's prosecutors, his decision stopped being surprising.
Thanks for jogging -- pardon the pun -- my memory. All I'd remembered for the longest, was how Yusef Salaam's mother's name magically changed, afer a few weeks, to "Salaam." I don't recall what she initially called herself.

As far as I know, the evidence is clean. It was public knowledge since 1989, that the police had DNA evidence that didn't match any of the boys they had in custody. It was also known that another attacker was referred to by the boys as "Tony." What police only recently learned, however, is that "Tony" was Matias Reyes' street name.
