Adnan Masud Syed's Guilty Case

How can a murder trial be fair without a look from both sides? A Jury can’t decide who’s guilty or not guilty based on one story, and no other example shows that more than the trial of Adnan Masud Syed. On January 13th, 1999, Hae Min Lee, a high school senior at Woodlawn High School, went missing. Following this, a search for her ensued, and when her body was found just six weeks later, her ex-boyfriend, Adnan Syed, was accused of her murder, and was found guilty and sentenced to life in prison, plus thirty years. To put it narrowly, Adnan was wrongly deemed guilty of Hae’s murder, and therefore, he is innocent.

First of all, Adnan has an alibi that, according to cellphone records, Hae was dead by 2:36 P.M, and Asia McClain clearly remembers
S says that he went 127 feet just for privacy when he went for a quick break in the woods, and he just happens to stumble upon Hae’s body after noticing a bit of her hair. To get into the backstory, Mr. S is one of the maintenance staff at Woodlawn High. On his way to work, he drank a 22 oz. bottle of Budweiser. As a result, he needed to take a quick break outside, so he walks One-hundred-twenty-seven feet into the woods, and he says he stumbles over and finds Hae’s body. Sarah explains in Serial, “Yet Mr. S says he never did pee in the woods. Says he ended up waiting until he gets to work. Which, okay maybe that makes sense.He’d had a shock. But why would he walk so far in the first place? He was just trying to have a quick pee.” (Episode 3, Page 48). This quote explains that Mr. S might’ve never had to have a “quick break” in the woods, and was just using the beer bottle as his excuse. Besides, walking so far into the woods doesn’t make sense, unless he was really sensitive about having a break in public. Besides, as the next quote will explain, Mr. S says he went 127 feet into the woods, but the problem with that will be explained in the quote: “Once we get to the right location, it dawns on all of us, 127 feet back doesn’t feel all that far, if you’re looking for privacy. You can still see the cars on the road from where we’re standing.” (Episode 3, Page 49).” He walks so far into the woods for his privacy, only to forget about the fact that
The reason the other side believes Adnan is guilty is because of one person; no, not Adnan himself; Jay, who says Adnan told him he was going to kill Hae. More importantly, Jay himself says that Adnan showed Hae’s body to him, as put: “I noticed that Hae wasn't with him. I parked next to him. He asked me to get out the car. I get out the car. He asks me, am I ready for this? And I say, ready for what?” And he takes the keys. He opens the trunk. And all I can see is Hae's lips are all blue, and she's pretzeled up in the back of the trunk. And she's dead.” (Episode I, Page 10). Jay is claiming to have been shown the body of Hae, and he is placing Adnan at the very scene of the crime. How believable is Jay, because according to Sarah and Bill Ritz, Jay’s story repeatedly keeps on changing. Sarah explains to the audience, “I put it to Bill Ritz when I talked to him briefly on the phone. Jay's story kept changing. You were catching the inconsistencies and he was having to explain them and clean up his story. So what ultimately made you believe him? Ritz said they believed Jay's story because “we were able to investigate and corroborate what he was saying.” (Episode 4, Page 68). Jay’s inaccuracies are either due the the fact that he
