Book Synopsis The Central Park Five by : Sarah Burns
Book excerpt: On April 20, 1989, the barely alive body of a woman is discovered in Central Park, and within days five black and Latino teenagers confess to her rape and beating. The young men are convicted, despite the fact that the teens quickly recant their inconsistent and inaccurate confessions and that no blood or DNA tests tie any of them to the victim.
