Response:
-"“when I testified, they pulled me in a back room and let me tell you how fun that was, to have the prosecutor afterwards yelling at me because I did not make Adnan sound creepy,” he said, “they wanted me to make him sound creepy. So creepy that I felt intimidated, which I did not. Adnan, he was very personable. He was funny, he was everything I already said. He was somebody that I would have hung out with if I knew him in school.” Don’s memory is that Urick yelled at him after both the first and second trials. “Oh, he was irate” Don said, “when I say yelling, he was literally yelling about it at me.”"
-Adnan’s post conviction petition is still alive in the Maryland Court of Special Appeals. His attorney, Justin Brown, is working on a way to bring the issue of the Asia alibi before the court again. I spoke to Asia recently. She told me she stands by her memories of seeing Adnan that January afternoon in the public library and she stands by her affidavit.
-Jay had told the detectives that Adnan had called some girl in Silver Spring that afternoon and briefly put Jay on the phone with her. That’s why the call is so important. Not only does it put Adnan together with his phone in the middle of the afternoon, it puts Adnan together with Jay in the middle of the afternoon. It corroborates Jay’s story.

Response:
- They tried to tie the fact he took some money from the mosque to the case, but it was a normal thing that happened often
Theme: Information that indicates Adnan's innocence
Response:
-"In other words, murder isn’t usually, strictly speaking a planned event. A lot of people who know Adnan, they can’t get their heads around that Adnan planned to kill Hae." ]]> 2020-11-30 15:06:40 UTC https://padlet.com/csands1/lyc6o4eprxdyc51e/wish/971585444 Episode 10: csands1 https://padlet.com/csands1/lyc6o4eprxdyc51e/wish/971585447 Theme: Race/ Religion/ Culture
Response:
-"Your honor, the fact that the defendant has strong support from the community, that is what makes him unique in this case. He is unique because he has limitless resources, he has the resources of this entire community here. Investigation reveals that he can tag resources from Pakistan as well. It’s our position your honor that if you issue a bail, then you are issuing him a passport under these circumstances to flee the country. We do not want another Sheinbein situation your honor. We are asking you-"
-"I don’t feel religion was why he did what he did. It may have been culture, but I don’t think it was religion. I’m not sure how the culture is over there, how they treat their women. But I know in some cultures women are second class citizens and maybe that’s what it was, I don’t know. He just wanted control and she wouldn’t give it to him."]]> 2020-11-30 15:06:40 UTC https://padlet.com/csands1/lyc6o4eprxdyc51e/wish/971585447 Episode 9: csands1 https://padlet.com/csands1/lyc6o4eprxdyc51e/wish/971585450 Theme:

Response:
-" I don’t believe Jay’s version. I think that there is a lot more to it than that. I feel that he’s definitely minimizing his involvement. To either protect himself, he’s doing it for one of three reasons: to protect himself, to protect somebody else, or because Adnan did it and was right there with him."
-"Everything. I think he was kind of like, about everything, nothing. I can definitely remember sometimes when Jay was telling a story and he would clearly know it was bullshit. I remember one time looking at Jenn and Jenn would roll her eyes like “here we go again. This is such bullshit.”]]> 2020-11-30 15:06:40 UTC https://padlet.com/csands1/lyc6o4eprxdyc51e/wish/971585452 Episode 7: csands1 https://padlet.com/csands1/lyc6o4eprxdyc51e/wish/971585456 Theme:

Response:
-" So that wasn’t on the note when I was writing with it. So for, to see it later, it was one of those things where it’s like, that’s weird to see that but, I don’t know when that would have been written or what the--"
-"He was friends with Jay though, they smoked weed together. I suggested maybe Jay told him this story and he kind of appropriated it and told it to the neighbor girl to freak her out. "]]> 2020-11-30 15:06:40 UTC https://padlet.com/csands1/lyc6o4eprxdyc51e/wish/971585460 Episode 5: csands1 https://padlet.com/csands1/lyc6o4eprxdyc51e/wish/971585463 Theme: Information that indicates Adnan's innocence
Response:
-  "If I’m Adnan and I need to be seen for track, I’m freaking out right now, that I need to get back for track to have an alibi. So what’s this “oh, lets just drive halfway across the county to go to a state park to smoke a blunt?” Just smoke in your car! It just seems like there had to be other places you could have pulled over for a quick smoke, if indeed that’s what needed to happen."
-"Here’s a weird thing about the 2:36 call, the prosecutors are very clear at trial that this is the ‘come and get me, I’m at Best Buy’ call. But they’re not basing it on anyone’s testimony. Jay never says the call was at that time. In fact, he says repeatedly that Adnan called him around 3:40 or 3:45. Jenn also says that’s about when Jay left her house that day. But there is no incoming call at or near 3:45 on the call log. So, the prosecution has to go with 2:36 because it’s the only one that sort of lines Jay’s story up with the log. It’s their only choice."]]> 2020-11-30 15:06:40 UTC https://padlet.com/csands1/lyc6o4eprxdyc51e/wish/971585463 Episode 4: csands1 https://padlet.com/csands1/lyc6o4eprxdyc51e/wish/971585465 Theme: Information that indicates Adnan's innocence
Response:
-"“We wouldn't necessarily be kicking it per se,” is Adnan speak for “Yes, we smoked weed together but we weren't close.” However, Adnan was close with Stephanie, Jay's girlfriend – very close. And Adnan says that's the only thing he can think of now that might have turned Jay against him."
-"This one, for instance: In the first taped interview, Jay says Adnan only told him that same day that he was going to kill Hae. Two weeks later, Jay says that Adnan had started talking about it before hand – four or five days before."
-"There's so many more of these. There's a whole side trip Adnan and Jay supposedly take that afternoon, after Hae's been killed to smoke some weed at Patapsco State Park. That trip disappears by trial – just drops out of the narrative – and Jay's whereabouts in between the time he drops Adnan back at school at midday and when he meets back up with him later that afternoon – the stories about where he is are so messy and so confusing that I can't even keep the different versions straight."]]> 2020-11-30 15:06:40 UTC https://padlet.com/csands1/lyc6o4eprxdyc51e/wish/971585465 Episode 3: csands1 https://padlet.com/csands1/lyc6o4eprxdyc51e/wish/971585467 Theme: Information that indicates Adnan's innocence
Response:
-"  I grabbed a beer out of my refrigerator. It was a 22-ounce Budweiser. I was drinking it on my way back to the school where I work at, and had to go to the bathroom, so I pulled over and I went further into the woods so nobody would see me urinate, and when I discovered what looked like a body--and I got back that way and I was getting ready to urinate and I looked down and seen something that looked like hair and something is covered under the dirt and it looked no good again and until I seen something that looked like a foot." If he has been drinking how would he see such a concealed body.
-"He’s got indecent exposure charges, to borrow a phrase from Adnan’s defense attorney, under circumstances that ‘bizarre’ doesn’t even begin to define. Mr. S is arrested May of ‘94 for running about naked in residential neighborhood. Two years later, March of ‘96, he’s spotted wearing a hoodie, sunglasses, white sneakers, and nothing else." If he is a common streaker why would he care about getting privacy to go pee

Response:
-"Prosecutor Kevin Urick told the jury in his opening statement, “He became enraged. He felt betrayed that his honor had been besmirched, and he became very angry, and he set out to kill Hae Min Lee.” Or this is from closing, “It was humiliating, what she did to him. Make no mistake about it, ladies and gentlemen. This was not a crime about love, this was a crime about pride.”"
-"Jane Efron, who apparently tells them “Adnan had a dark side which is in his poetry.” The words ‘dark side’ are underlined..." It was like all the teenagers that I taught because everything in their lives was dark. I don’t remember any of them having anything upbeat to say, so he was just another one that makes you think that you’re living on another planet. Cuz when you look out at them and they’re healthy and hearty and playing and being stupid so-- (laughs)""]]> 2020-11-30 15:06:40 UTC https://padlet.com/csands1/lyc6o4eprxdyc51e/wish/971585468 Episode 1: csands1 https://padlet.com/csands1/lyc6o4eprxdyc51e/wish/971585469 Theme: Information that indicates Adnan’s innocence
Response:
-"Jay And he asked me if I was going to help. And I told him, [BLEEP] no...
Detective You helped him dig the hole.
Jay Yes." Jay said he wasn't going to dig the hole but then he said he did.
-"That would mean Adnan wasn't just a killer, but a master liar and manipulator, a psychopath, probably." If Criminal Minds taught me anything it is that psychopaths show signs of being a psychopath like killing animals, hurting animals, unable to show empathy. And from what we hear from Rabia Adnan was nothing like that.
- "All this time I thought the courts proved it was Adnan that killed her. I thought he was where he deserved to be. Now I'm not so sure."
