Have you ever Wanted to see how a real crime is solved and How detective’s find a answer to their doubts? well this is a story of Adnan Syed and how he was found guilty for his ex-girlfriend's murder but yet the story turns as thing procced. My first reason to help prove my claim is “some say Hae Min Lee was choked to death but there was no sign of marking” -koeing hae’s body was found they say she was choked but yet there was no physical evidence like documents or doctor records or anything from an autopsy . There was no fingerprint evidence or pictures of bruising or any evidence showing the incident. My second reason states how koeing says the innocent people are the most least helpful people when it comes to gathering evidence. So in this part koeing asks adnan about stuff and on some questions she’s basically blaming on adnan but he doesn’t seem to get jumpy at all instead he responds calmly response it was always “I think” or “maybe” and “probably”. Koeing would ask adnan if he had any contact with Hae and he said “well i don’t think we had much contact because i called her three times but she would only answer the last call” He was basically stating that they did have contact but it wasn’t even a full conversation the key word was well because he was not sure and he never really was …show more content…
But he still went back and I don’t understand why he would’ve wanted to go back to the place where jay said he killed
The Serial podcast, hosted by Sarah Koenig, is about the murder of young Woodlawn High School student Hae Min Lee. Hae was a smart, ambitious, and outgoing young lady taken from this world too soon. Sarah Koenig and the podcast takes us through the ins and outs of typical and unusual teenager behavior to try and uncover something unseen in this case. Adnan Syed, the now convicted murder, and Jay Wilds, the state’s only witness, are the key people of this story. I believe Adnan’s innocence should be maintained because Jay’s story should not have been used for evidence, there was not enough evidence to even arrest Adnan, and Adnan had a trustworthy alibi.
Adnan Syed is accused of murdering his ex-girlfriend, and various factors present him as a very likely suspect. Information put together by the state don’t add up, but instead prove he is innocent. Is Adnan guilty or innocent for his ex-girlfriend’s death? In the Serial Podcast, journalist Sarah Koenig discusses the case, committed almost seventeen years ago, and uncovers new evidence that indicates Adnan’s innocence. Adnan Syed has been viewed as a boyfriend, honor roll student, and a murderer. Many described him as a smart, flirtatious, and a likable high schooler. On January 13, 1999, his ex-girlfriend, Hae Min Lee, was murdered. Investigators immediately assumed Adnan as the primary suspect because Hae had broken up with him, a month
Adnan never forcefully stood up for himself, which proves that he isn’t innocent. For example,
This is an attempt to unravel the tangle by an objective and empirical examination of information from crime scene and post mortem examination of the victims. Pre-digested information such as speculative newspaper reports, and statements from witnesses other than those called in a professional capacity have been avoided since theirs is largely subjective testimony that confounds more than it informs.
When one is guilty, it means that he or she is “culpable of or responsible for a specified wrongdoing” or, “having committed an offense, crime, violation, or wrong, especially against moral or penal law; justly subject to a certain accusation or penalty.” If someone is charged as guilty, they have broken a law or performed an unjust or immoral act to deserve punishment. However, this does not mean that through reasonable suspicion that an individual can be determined as guilty. It means that “a defendant is innocent until proven guilty. In other words, the prosecution must prove, beyond a reasonable doubt, each essential element of the crime charged.” In other words, a particular person must be proven guilty of a crime through proof and evidence. In the story provided by Serial, Sarah Koenig narrates the case of the murder of Hae Min Lee. Seventeen years ago, on January 13, Hae Min Lee, a senior at Woodlawn High School, was reported missing. Weeks later, her body is found and the cause of her death was determined to be manual strangulation. Her ex-boyfriend, Adnan Musud Syed, was convicted of her murder and sentenced to life plus thirty years in prison. The case against him was mainly based on the story of one witness, Jay Wilds. Now, past reporter and journalist, Sarah Koenig is reopening this case to find out what really happened. Through documents, police interrogations, testimonies, and interviews, she collects evidence to look for the answer.
On February 9th, a man named Mr. S on his lunch break was roaming around in Leakin Park in Baltimore, Maryland when he discovered Hae’s body face down in a ditch. The cause of death was manual strength. An anonymous caller told police to check Adnan Syed as a suspect in the murder of Hae Min Lee.
Seventeen years ago, a girl went missing, then a body was uncovered. What chain of events had occurred in order to compose this crime? As presented and narrated by Sarah Koenig, the Serial podcast informs readers on the murder of a highschool girl. The year was 1999 and Hae Min Lee, the victim of the crime, was found strangled and buried in Leakin Park. Adnan Syed, Hae’s ex boyfriend, was deemed the main suspect responsible for her death. Supposedly, his motive was jealousy and anger caused after Hae had broken up with him in exchange for the companionship of her co worker, Don. Although this wasn’t the case, according to Adnan and other people who knew him. Yet Adnan was still tried as guilty, and the foundation for that case was the information
Investigation: The detective upon receiving information on the events, beings his initial investigation of the crime. The detective, along with his team, collects evidence such as: video surveillance, finger prints, bullet analysis, blood pattern analysis, DNA, and interviews the witnesses. At some point in the investigation, an interview was conducted on a customer that got a full description of the suspect. The detective, upon hearing his statement, requests for a sketch artist. The sketch artist pencils up a picture of the suspect and copies are made and handed out to all patrols. The individual describes the suspect as a tall white male, with short brown hair, about 6’4, wearing glasses with a five o’ clock shadow, and about 210lbs. The suspect was described as wearing a white hoodie and blue
The book exposes the most damning revelation concerning ignorance of the Hollywood police on repeated confessions by a serial killer. The killer had detailed information concerning the crime that was never made public. However, he was never tried for the crime despite confessing to the boy’s murder. The author does not bend facts to show his artistic skills. He details factual information and is not self-consciously literary. The spilling of the narrative follows a
He has a lot of girls!’” (Episode 2: The Breakup p. 37). When someone is going around dating other people, it is apparent that they have moved on with their lives. If this is true about Adnan, he couldn’t have been the one to commit the crime, as people who trust that he is guilty are convinced that his main motive for killing Hae was because he was broken-hearted. This next quotation is from the part of the story when Koenig was discussing matters on the phone with a former schoolmate of Adnan’s, Asia McClain, who is yet another important person in the case. McClain was talking about a conversation she had had with Adnan while she was waiting to be picked up from the library. “And he told me that him and Hae had broke up. And I was like, oh, well, that 's a bummer. And I was like, what happened? And he was like, oh, well, she is seeing this other guy, some white dude, but he was pretty chill about it. He was just like, you know, well, if she doesn 't want to be with me, then that 's fine. I just wish the best for her-- that kind of attitude.” (Episode 1: The Alibi p. 24). In the words of McClain, “...but he was pretty chill about it.” What she meant by this was that Adnan didn’t overreact about he and Hae splitting, because if he did, it would show that he was irate with the fact that his relationship with her ended. Adnan did not show any signs of jealousy or anger towards Hae, thus proving that he didn’t have a motive to kill her.
True crime and journalism often serves as a cultural purpose, it gives people a chance to become a detective for a little and it allows the audience to explore what happened in someone else's life. By doing a multitude of things, true crime and journalism, can explore one’s feelings on the topic that is being presented and entertain people in a way that they are not entertained by the news. It gives people a different perspective on the why and the how of a certain incident. Through “The Hossack Murder” by Susan Glaspell and the 48 Hour episode “Nightmare in Napa” there are some differences that show how through journalism and true crime things can be presented in a variety of ways and can also leave unique impacts on their audience.

The podcast Serial explores the murder of Hae Min Lee in 1999 involving intense evidence for each episode portraying the moments up until Lee’s murder. There were many people who were tied to her murder but Adnan Syed; her ex-boyfriend becomes the central character. Jay Wilds, Syed’s friend is the key to the case, testifying against Syed, however, numerous questions arise about Jay and additional people and what his or their purpose was in this murder. For example, Jay admitted to burying Hae’s body but was fearful of speaking about it because of the illegal things he was into. Furthermore, Adnan Syed was convicted, however, the podcast will raise a number of questions around who really did kill Hae Min Lee.
Adnan Syed, the convicted murderer at a young age, got famous because Sarah Koenig made his case the subject of a national podcast called Serial. She believed the case was interesting because it was “confusing and there was not much evidence against him” yet he was convicted of a murder. The podcast Serial developed by This American Life, is nonfiction that is spoken by Sarah Koenig who is an investigative journalist. Sarah Koenig also mentions there was no real evidence that Adnan was the murderer.
