11 RECORDED INTERVIEWS VIDEOS

There are 11 video-taped statements made by young men who participated in the riot and attacks in Central Park on April 19, 1989. These recorded statements have been withheld from public view for more than a dozen years. They are, in their entirety, all here on this site.
Videos #1-#4B are interviews by four of the five young men convicted of participating in the assault and rape of Trisha Meili – named in the media as the Central Park Jogger. Each of the suspects who was under the age of 16 when questioned, was questioned in the presence of a parent or guardian, as required by law.
The law does not require an adult to be present when the suspect is 16 or older, and so, two of the suspects who identified themselves as 16 were interviewed without a parent or guardian. Each young man, whether under or over 16 years of age, was advised of his rights as can be seen here on the video recordings, and each young man confirms having been advised of his rights by the police before this stage of the recorded interviews occurred.
By viewing each or all of the videos, it is abundantly clear why the trial and appellate courts’ ruling in this case determined that the statements were given voluntarily, and therefore admissible in a court of law. That ruling has never been overturned.
You can make your own decision about the voluntariness of these statements by watching them yourselves. You will see the demeanor of each young man, his tone, his description of the attacks in the park that night – and you will see that a parent or guardian was present for the entire interview, seated beside each young man under the age of 16.
An additional six videos available for viewing here have never been viewed publicly until late last year, when they were posted on the New York City Law Department website.
These additional six young men admit they were together with the Central Park 5 that night, and admit participating and observing all the other attacks that night. Most importantly, the statements of others – whether charged of crimes or not – implicate ANTRON McCRAY, RAYMOND SANTANA, KEVIN RICHARDSON, KHOREY WISE, and YUSEF SALAAM in the brutal violence that occurred on April 19th.
None of the others admitted that they were involved in the rape and beating of Trisha Meili – unlike the Five – but their own words corroborate every detail that the Five themselves have stated. They are remarkable in that regard, and in the calm and cool way that each of these young men describe going into Central Park that night to go ‘wilding’ – to beat and rob ordinary citizens who were enjoying their use of the park.
