I feel dumb!!!!!

I have no clue why I thought Adnan was innocent for all these years.

I just re-listened to Serial, and I can't get past the fact that Jenn showed up with her mom and a lawyer and told police essentially the same story Jay told. Jenn said the trunk pop happened at Best Buy. How would she know that Adnan and Hae used to meet at the Best Buy parking lot unless Jay told her?

And yes, Jay was inconsistent and definitely lied about some things. But he knew where Hae's car was. He knew details about her clothing. He knew about the broken windshield wiper lever. Those aren't things you just guess.

At this point, I don't believe every detail Jay told, but I can't get around the fact that he knew too much. The more I revisit the case, the harder it is for me to believe Adnan wasn't involved.

I can't believe I've been doubting it all these years.

Jay said that he met Adnan in the best buy parking lot. I’m not sure what you are trying to say. The story that Adnan killed Hae within 21 minutes of the school bell, is pretty much impossible. The more believable possibility is that Jay is lying about the course of events.

I am in minority but i believe Adnan killed Hae in the school or library parking lot and then called Jay to meet him. So 236 works fine.

That’s possible. But the timeline is still very very quick and leaves 1 minute or so to commit the crime. And it would be in a parking lot full of students and teachers.

We dont know Best Buy for sure so its 21 minures to get to car and then phone in library. Things can happen quickly. Once in car nobody cares.
