she didn't know who attacked her, she has no memory of the attack, she believed what the prosecutors and cops told her. Don't blame her for what white middle aged men did to African American and Latino boys.

It's difficult to believe that a decade has gone by since their convictions were vacated. I'm looking forward to seeing this film. There's no doubt it will be gripping.

i totaly agree with rick

[Rick Smithson]

Linda (UN)Fairstein and all her cohorts need to pay for their crimes now, becuase her "career-ambition" has illegally, and wrongfully put namy innocent men behind bars ruining their lives. Scientific facts (DNA) has proved them ALL innocent, whereas Fairstein's "ambition" has only brought shame and disgust upon the entire NYC legal and justice system.

Still black celebrities didn't stick up for the CP5. The truth is the M6 created more sensationalism: small town, satanism, child murder and so on the media naturally felt attracted to cover this story. And calling me names like idiot and a numbskull says more about you then it says about me.

[jojo24love]

you idiot, the memphis 6 were convicted and sentenced, years later it was supported by such celebrities like johhny depp. So they were already serving jail time just like the central 5. Learn your facts you numbskull

[KatyDelMar]

No it was because celebrities like Johnny Depp supported the M6. Maybe you should ask why black celebrities did not back the CP5.

Read you ignorant Mother-Fuckers.

No accusations were made. Matias Reyes, the lone psychopath who actually committed the crime, raped and beat Trisha Meili into a coma from which she emerged with no memory of the attack. At trial she only testified about her real-life injuries. When asked if she could identify her attackers, she said she could not.

“For my own health, I had to come to terms that I will never know what happened to me that night” - Trisha Meili

Of course i have heard of the Jenna 6. My comment was a reply to someone else who feels this movie was created because the Central Park 5 were black. I just pointed out that there is a documentary on similar cases where the accuses were all white. The Memphis 3 have not gotten more attention than Central Park 5. It is just that it has been so long since the latter case, more than 20 years, and people have largely forgotten. But above all, when the accused are black, justice is rarely served.
