‘Malicious, intentional and reckless’: Exonerated ‘Central Park Five’ sue Trump for falsely telling 67 million people that they ‘killed a person ultimately’ and ‘pled guilty’

Donald Trump and Kamala Harris

Presidential candidates Donald Trump and Kamala Harris (ABC News).

Donald Trump this week filed a lawsuit against CBS News over the network’s October interview with Vice President Kamala Harris, claiming the aired footage was deceptively “doctored” to “confuse, deceive, and mislead the public” to “tip the scales” in favor of Democrats, in what the former president alleges to be unlawful “election and voter interference.”

Trump, who canceled his own scheduled appearance on “60 Minutes,” has spent weeks railing about Harris’ appearance on the show.

Several legal experts have panned the suit as being frivolous and without merit.

The long-shot complaint was filed Thursday in the Northern District of Texas Amarillo Division, where U.S. District Judge Matthew Kacsmaryk — an appointee of Trump — is the lone federal judge, and seeks an astounding $10 billion in damages. The choice of venue arguably appears to be an example of “judge shopping,” as Trump lives in Florida and CBS is based in New York.
