Not far from the school

Knew Adnan was not carrying out his "religious responsibilities"

• Sneaking around, talking to girls, smoking weed

  • She would eavesdrop on the phone, check the car mileage, hear things from Aunties around town

Often argued with Adnan about how she disagreed with his actions

His parents showed up to homecoming to embarrass him, as well as to confront Hae

• Court used his relationship with Hae against him, since it was contradictory to his parents beliefs, showed him being defiant.

Picked Asia up from the library

Said Asia is not the type to lie (spcifically about seeing Adnan in the library that day)

Adnan was claimed by his potential alibi, Asia McClain, that he was seen at the library after school hours.

Adnan, himself, declares that he was at the library after school during the time that Hae was thought to be strangled.

Sarah Koenig went to the library to ask the manager about the security system. In fact, there was no footage at all from that day.

Jay Wild claims that Adnan called him from a payphone in the Best Buy parking lot. This call was for Jay to come pick Adnan up after he killed Hae.

For a record, there was no evidence that there was ever a payphone in the Best Buy parking lot.
