Also relevant: In 1989, Donald Trump, a private NYC citizen at the time, bought a full page newspaper ad to prosecute five young boys in the court of public opinion[1].
They were later exonerated from the Central Park Jogger rape and assault and won a large civil case for malicious prosecution. Trump, proven wrong in a court of law, denied that they were innocent and "he refused to acknowledge the Central Park Five's innocence and stated that their convictions should never have been vacated."
