    Adnan Sayed is guilty. I believe he murdered his girlfriend Hae Ming Lee in a case that has brought widespread public discussion through the forum of a contemporary radio show: Serial the Podcast. How do I know Adnan is guilty? Well of course I have no way of knowing, but in a completely different sense, I am completely sure. I know because I have lived with Adnan Sayed. I have been lied to by Adnan Sayed, and I am related to Adnan Sayed. With any familiarity to the podcast, one doesn’t have to cast their search light far to find someone with the same charm and smooth-talking mannerisms as Adnan. The essential theme of Serial boils down to a dilemma that becomes more chilling the more time you spend pondering the question; Can someone who presents themselves as so likeable and sincere, really commit such an atrocity? In that past few years of my life, I have discovered first hand that, yes, the charismatic and amiable man I loved most in the world, was capable of things unforseen to everyone.…
