As we reported here, prosecutor-turned-author Linda Fairstein was livid over how her involvement in the infamous Central Park Five case of the late 1980’s was depicted in Netflix’s award-winning mini-series, ‘When They See Us.’

Going on to become one of the streaming giant’s most critically acclaimed and most viewed offerings in its history, the Ava DuVernay-directed venture became so popular it caused Fairstein to be dismissed from a number of college boards, lose book deals, and more.

To combat the bad press, she penned an op-ed in the ‘Wall Street Journal’ to slam her portrayal in ‘When They See Us’ as ‘an outright fabrication’ (as we reported here).  Later, the 72-year-old took her complaints to court via a defamation lawsuit – a move’s that now prompted Netflix to clap back (via their legal representatives).
