About “Central Park Five”

According to Netflix, “Based on the true story that gripped New York and the world, the series will be a five-episode limited, scripted series that exposes the breakdown of our criminal justice system at every phase of the notorious Central Park Five case. Each part will focus on one of the five teenagers from Harlem — Antron McCray, Kevin Richardson, Yusef Salaam, Raymond Santana and Korey Wise — wrongly convicted of raping Trisha Meili in Central Park. The series will span from the spring of 1989, when each were first questioned about the incident, to 2014 when they were exonerated and a settlement was reached with the city of New York”.

  14. Norah Hollenbeck

    Hello! I’m a bit young, (10) but I am actually pretty tall for my age. I think I could pass as a young teenager.
    Maybe. I am not like a lot of kids. (Not to be rude). But I am very mature and polite. I prefer some peace and quiet alone in my room writing a book. Speaking of books, one of mine is going to be published. I believe I can sing. Coming from my point of view, but I’m kind of horrible at it when I know everyone’s watching me. I like to draw and I think that I’m very creative. I’m very good at following instructions and things like that. I LOVE to read. I have always wanted to be an actress and author of fantasy books. No,
    literally, since I can remember I’ve ALWAYS wanted to be an actress. But, all the sites I’d find had me pay to audition so I turned them down. Like, who pays to make money! Writing came later. I started with some creative writing assignments and then a short story in the newspaper then the beginnings of my own novel inside a notebook and then, well sending it into a publishing company and getting an email saying they’d loved it and etc. Then, drawing came up when I’d started wanting to be able to illustrate my covers by myself. I’m actually pretty good at it. I feel that I can learn things fastly and am able to do anything as long as it’s something that I’d want to do. I’m like a get-things-done girl. I am diabetic 🙁 so my family and I started on the paleo diet to heal my pancreas. So, I can only eat specific things. Unless I take a lot of insulin, but I don’t like to do that. I’m ready to learn new things in order to get A role. At least one, and I don’t mean I’d get two. Lol. Ok, that’s a lot of writing about me, so, THE END. I like to do that. 🙂
