The other guy, as shown in the article, sat on the information until most of the 5 had served their too short sentences, and then, as it was revealed, only admitted to it to protect himself from one of the 5s gang. The guy who confessed was a convicted serial rapist, who raped and murdered a pregnant woman.......
Another left wing Saint....right?
Not at all. But the point was, the DNA proved he did it, and not the other five... So there's that.
So it kind of cuts both ways... He could have just as easily given up information implicating the other five, which the City would have just loved, as it gets them off the hook for millions. If the only thing he was bargaining for was his prison location, implicating the five would have gained him a lot more than confessing.
Keep in mind, he wasn't even on anyone's radar until he confessed, and then someone bothered to test the DNA evidence.
They attacked the woman and beat her into a coma........they admitted that.....and they were part of a larger pack of criminals......
Defenders of the Five point out that the DNA of the semen inside the jogger's cervix did not match that of McCray, Richardson, Santana, Wise, or Salaam — supposedly proving the boys' innocence.
But in fact, it proves only that none of those five had actually penetrated the victim's vagina. It does not negate the fact that all fiveprovided vivid testimony proving beyond any doubt that they were part of the vicious horde that had committed one of the most brutal, barbaric attacks in living memory.
Nor does it alter the fact that their mere presence in that horde made them legally complicit in Miss Meili's rape. The fact that their semen was not inside the victim's body is not a get-out-of-jail-free card. Authorities always knew that there were other assailants, besides the Five, who had brutalized the victim and gotten away.
