Adnan Syed is speciously guilty of first degree murder of Hae Min Lee. Syed claims to have no recollection of the events that occurred on January 13, 1999 which, in some cases could be a way to further prove one’s innocence, but it also means Syed has no solid alibi to contradict Jay Wilds narrative of what exactly happened that day. If a person does not have an alibi verified with witnesses to counteract another person’s story claiming you murdered another person on a particular day, they are probably guilty of committing that crime. However, Syed was asked to account for a day that happened 6 weeks prior to questioning, it’s not irregular that he cannot remember specific details especially if it was just a regular old day for him.

However, his track coach and team mates cannot 100% verify this statement. “Their coach, Michael Psy, told the cops that Adnan probably was at track practice that day... But he couldn’t be 100% sure.” Sarah Koenig (Serial Podcast Episode 5 Route Talk). To follow Wilds timeline of the events that occurred that evening, Syed eventually does make it back to Woodlawn for track practice. Syed most likely didn’t arrive on time, however despite there being a consequence to those who arrive late or don’t show up at all, as described by Will one of Syed’s track mates, (Serial Podcast Episode 5: Route Talk) a coach who isn’t as strict as to take attendance everyday could’ve gave Syed a pass for being tardy. As described by Rabia Chaundry, Syed was “a star runner on the track team.” (Serial Podcast Episode 1: The Alibi). A person arriving a little late is a lot less memorable than a person not showing up at all. All Syed had distressed over was being seen. He knew showing up late to practice was a lot better than not showing up at all and used that to his own …show more content…
“You can’t just go into your car and leave. It’s going to take a few minutes. So it’s just a really tight window of time for this to have taken place.” Adnan Syed (Serial Podcast Episode 5: Route Talk). Nonetheless, narrator of Serial, Sarah Koenig and producer Dana Chivvis make a successful endeavor at recreating the route it would’ve taken Syed and Hae to get to Best Buy. So the trip could’ve most definitely happened. Unfortunately, it’s true, you cannot recall all of your days on this planet no matter how hard you try to. It gets even harder when you follow a specific routine everyday, much like a high school student does. When asked (by narrator Sarah Koenig in Episode 1: The Alibi of the Serial Podcast) to retrace steps about a day that happened 6 weeks prior to the questioning, eighteen year olds Tyler and Sam didn’t exactly have the best
Of the three Adnan Syed was the one wrongfully convicted due to insufficient evidence and poor examination of all aspects of the case. Hae Min Lee was a senior in high school and the ex of Adnan Syed. Adnan had always been pleasant towards
At the age of 17, Adnan Syed was charged for the murder of Hae Min Lee, but I don’t believe he did it, and I want to tell you why I think it was Jay who committed the murder. In this case there are days worth of reading for evidence. Just in the transcripts, there’s 288 pages, some of it evidence, some of it conversations, and some of it interviews. There are so many people involved that it's very difficult to say for certain that Adnan did it, but it's also very difficult to point out anyone else that could have done it as well.
If a person murders someone and thinks they are guilty, why would there be so much evidence proving the opposite? Adnan Syed is guilty of Hae’s murder. On January 13, 1999 Hae Min Lee, a popular high school senior, disappeared and was found dead. Six weeks later, Adnan Syed, Hae’s ex-boyfriend, was found guilty of her murder. He claims to be innocent but there is evidence to prove that he was guilty.
On 10-22-2015 at 0930 Sgt. Harris and I went to the 49ner Diner to review video of Richard entering and leaving the Diner to gain a time line of Richards whereabouts on 10-18-2015. Richard is seen entering the 49ner at approximately 1454 hours. Richard is seen entering the Diner with a drink in hand. Richard spoke with a number of people at the Diner.
The evidence, though, doesn’t support that conviction; there wasn’t enough concrete evidence to unquestionably prove his guilt. Adnan Syed was unfairly convicted of the murder of Hae Min Lee. Through his trial, the prosecution did not present sufficient evidence to fully
Jay didn't mention this during his trial but he told Sarah that him and Adnan went to smoke weed that day. This was a big deal for both of them because how did Jay remember all of what Adnan did but yet he still lies about where he was. This shows me that Adnan Syed is not guilty because although Jay has his alibis and Adnan has his, Jay’s alibi Jenn was covering up for.him. She hid a lot of information from the police that could have possibly proved Adnan’s innocence
This completely lifted his confidence he could finally see that he was more than the troublemaker of his family. His success grew rather quickly, because his goal was to get to the next Olympic games. He is always training and training to keep improving. When it comes almost time to try out for the Olympic trials Louie knows that he will never be fast enough to qualify for the mile race he has been training for. Instead of giving up and calling it quits on his running career Louie takes a different approach.
If a person is convicted of a murder, why wouldn’t he be trying to defend their case? Adnan Syed is guilty of Hae Min Lee’s murder. On January 13, 1999, Hae Min Lee, a popular high school senior, disappeared and was found dead. Six weeks later, Adnan Syed, Hae’s ex-boyfriend, was found guilty of her murder. He claims to be innocent but there is evidence to prove that he was guilty.
Adnan is Innocent Do you remember what you did on this day, exactly one week ago? You might remember some things about that day, or you might remember nothing. How about if I asked what you did 6 weeks ago on this day? Could you tell me?
Sarah Koenig, the host of Serial, begins the podcast with, "For the last year, I 've spent every working day trying to figure out where a high school kid was for an hour after school one day in 1999. " At this exact moment, I knew that I would desire more from Koenig 's narrative due to her ability to fully grasp my attention with her voice and choice of words. Koenig moves on to explain the difficulties of attempting to remember a person 's whereabouts days, weeks, or even months before, which I could wholly relate to. Moreover, her determination is fascinating; she goes out of her way to interview a handful of teenagers to see if they could remember where they were six weeks ago and, unsurprisingly, they could not. In addition, Koenig initiates Hae Min Lee 's story with background information, such as where Lee attended school, her immediate disappearance, and the arrest of her ex-boyfriend, Adnan Syed.
The final bags were filled with extras ( toothbrush, toothpaste, food, etc.).The car was very empty on the way there. My dad was driving. My mom was in the passenger seat and I was in the back with my sister. On they way there we saw a really cool, broke down farm. It was still up and running but, it didn 't have any animals.
Of course, many people think Adnan Syed is guilty of murdering Hae by contradicting himself, by saying, “I am in here for my own mistakes.” He might have been on the edge of confessing his guilt until Sarah caught this and asked what he meant, and quickly recovers from his mistake. Adnan also slips his tongue by saying that he wants people to only look at the evidence, and not his personality. If I were convicted of a crime I would certainly like to have my personality be looked at, if I were innocent. So they could see what good I have done.
On the car ride back, I sat beside Nick, chatting away about the day we shared together for the duration of our ride. Our bond grew considerably tighter that day, having showed me his hometown and the house he grew up in that morning, along with introducing me to practically his entire family. Around midnight, I was reunited with dreaded Dieterich, too exhausted to complain that I was in a town renown for its gas station. I collapsed on the couch, attempting to drown out a “Hee Haw” marathon on the television with thoughts from my day in Maryland
Jay’s timeline, accepted mainly because of unreliable cell tower information, is not realistic or supported by any physical evidence against Adnan Syed which proves Adnan is innocent of Hae Min Lee’s murder. Jay’s timeline does not match up with the time it would take to get to places. It is far fetched that Adnan killed Hae in the time Jay said because there is no room for errors (Koenig, “Route Talk”). It took Koenig twenty-two minutes and two seconds to re-enact the route from the school to calling Jay. If Koenig would have got distracted anywhere between the school hallway and the payphone, Jay’s timeline would not fit the possible times.
After receiving death threats from parents of other players, he and his brother dropped from the team in order to get rid of the problem altogether, never again playing sports. With grades and a resume like his, getting into prestigious colleges and medical schools was not really much to worry about. On top of that, he didn’t seem to have a great interest in sports anyways, therefore allowing to him to focus on his studies, something that was very important to him. Unlike Dr. 2 Carson, there are some middle school, high school and even college athletes who have an immense amount of interest in both academics and sports- also known as student athletes. While having an outstanding academic transcript can go a long way, it is proven that kind of transcript as well as an athletic resume can go even farther.
