How is there not a Serial thread yet?

Most believable thing I've read yet.

As a lawyer, it was difficult to listen to the podcast at times, especially the way it was being edited.  There's a huge difference between actual guilt and legal guilt and that probably should have been explained more.  Either way, all of my theories went out the door when Jay led the cops to her car.

At that point, it was motive of Jay vs motive of Adnan, and frankly, since Adnan had absolutely no alibi, it was hard to fathom it being anyone else.

Do I think the prosecution had enough to go beyond a reasonable doubt?  Not with the way this information was presented no, and I could raise serious questions about his attorney's defense, but I wouldn't go that far unless I had read the entire trial proceedings, which, frankly, I'm not going to do.  But I definitely think Ms. Gutierrez could have done a better job.

Do I think Adnan killed Hae? Yes, but the job is on the prosecution to put together more evidence than they did (or more than we were presented).

Deidre's well off the mark on this one.  She has absolutely nothing to tie Ronald Moore and Jay together.  Until then, she needs to look at the real picture and ignore the big picture, which for her is anybody but Adnan.

My favorite part of the podcast was when Adnan got upset about Sarah saying he was such a nice guy that it makes it difficult to believe he could do it.  The whole premise of her show was that an attorney contacted her because this really nice kid was convicted of a crime that they just couldn't be he was capable of doing.  That doesn't mean shit and he had the exact right response - that doesn't help me one bit, so let's a find a way where I didn't do this with FACT that I can take to the courts.  That didn't happen - not even close.

Well, that and where Christina found out Jay's attorney was arranged by the prosecutor and Sarah says "if you or you're loved one is an attorney their mouth is wide open right now" and sure enough, when my fiancee looked over, my mouth was wide open.  That was pretty funny.
I like that Smacks agrees with me that anyone who thinks Adnan legitimately didn't do it is experiencing a severe case of the Emperor's new clothes.

There's a weird, bizarre theory on the internet – shocking, I know! – that he was a CI (plausible) and the cops didn't want to burn him as a source so they concealed his involvement in the murder to keep him informing (insane).

Confidential Informant.  Took me a minute too.
Has anyone been watching the HBO Robert Durst documentary? Would be interesting to people who liked Serial.
Yes. He scares me.

His affect is just so off in every scene. It's unnerving.
And he blinks when he's lying! You can tell he killed those people! It's insane.

I'm an episode behind, and haven't googled him, so I really don't know what happened.
Durst was arrested this morning. Supposedly the final episode tonite is pretty explosive.
Holy shit…did anyone watch?

Yes. Total jaw drop moment when his mic picks up him going "(I) killed them all". Truly stunning. The "hour long" episode ended like 35 minutes in, out of nowhere, and what had just happened was so batshit crazy, I didn't even care.

Unlike Serial, Jarecki ACTUALLY went out and solved a murder. The Jinx is going to be studied in schools one day.
Durst had a QP of herb in his hotel room.  So he was baked out of his gourd and talking to himself in the shitter and it just happened to be caught on tape.  If Dick DeGuerin can't get that "confession" thrown out he should be disbarred.

yeah . . . that "confession" is so not sticking.  and Im sick of hearing about this fucking story on every fucking news,site for fucking days.
The note is a much bigger deal than "killed them all, of course." In all likelihood, he was saying to himself "[he's going to think I] killed them all, of course."

The handwriting on that note is much harder to explain away.
Adnan Syed?s story continues in new podcast

?Undisclosed: The State v. Adnan Syed? is a new podcast produced by Chaudry in conjunction with two other lawyers, Susan Simpson and Colin Miller. The first episode will premiere on April 13.

Chaudry said the new podcast will be an investigation of the case rather than a narrative, as Serial was. She described it as partly new information about the case and partly new analysis of things we already know from Serial.

I was hyped when I saw a similar article this morning but looking at who its from, it won't even pretend to have the veneer of journalistic integrity that Serial did.
