  Central Park Five Part 1.   Ava DuVernay shed new light on the 30-year-old case of the Central Park Five with her Netflix miniseries, When They See Us. The scripted series is based on the true story of the “Central Park Five,” a group of five teenagers wrongly accused and convicted of a crime they didn't commit.
