Yusef Salaam

[edit]

Central Park accused Yusef Salaam is currently a candidate for NYC City Council and should get a new article of his own on this. This fact is a public record.96.39.242.97 (talk) 01:29, 4 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Show about Central Park Jogger

[edit]

Even if it wasn't American Justice, l can still recall watching a show on this case before Reyes made his confession. Tnarrud3 (talk) 15:51, 22 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

This quote appears in the article? "whites, blacks and browns and yellows"

[edit]

I saw this appears in the article: "The Central Park events, which were attributed at the time to members of the large group of youths who attacked numerous persons in the park, including whites, blacks and browns and yellows." are "browns and yellows" really the terms wikipedia wants to use?

I just now reverted that very recent edit. I’m not aware that reliable sources use the word “yellow” as a noun. Anythingyouwant (talk) 03:20, 11 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Homicide

[edit]

The artilce says "Initially the Meili case was investigated as a homicide." The "explanation" for this is many paragraphs later. Thus, a reader could easily come away thinking the victim had died ore being confused. I think we should add a note as to why a nonlethal assault would be considered a homicide (that being that it appeared that the victim would die). Kdammers (talk) 15:43, 18 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
