Original Note:
Donald Trump did not call for the Central Park 5 (CP5) to be executed. This enduring myth is a misreading of his 1989 NY Times ad on violent crime. He obliquely referenced CP5, who weren’t tried for murder. Separately and generally: “when they kill, they should be executed” https://static01.nyt.com/images/2019/06/18/nyregion/18nytrump1/18nytrump1-superJumbo.jpg?quality=75&auto=webp
