Adnan Syed: The Guilty Of Jealousy

The issue of religious bias and stereotype now obtain around the world, including America, which led to social differentiation, crimes and their ethnic identity. This phenomenon may bring an impact on court decision because of their bias toward the religion. Stereotype of religion have affected the defendant, which should not be used against the defendant because stereotype is an unfair belief. In the Serial podcast, the murder of Hae Min Lee has caused worldwide attention and discussion. A 17 years old teenage boy, Adnan Syed, has been convicted to the first degree murder. Adnan is born in a Muslim family from Pakistan, people assumed that Adnan must be a Muslim because of his parent 's faith. His Muslim identity has been repeated and emphasized in the podcast and trial, this factor may affect his court of decision due to the stereotype of Muslim. Religious profiling may have affected Adnan Syed 's trial in 1990 due to his religion and his Muslim character is being portrayed by religious stereotype which exposed the attitude towards Muslims in the United States.

We believe that Jay is guilty. In the next five minutes we will prove to you that Adnan is in fact innocent and why Jay should be in jail. Adnan was close friends with Jay’s girlfriend Stephanie which is what we believe Jay’s motive was to murder Hae. The court convicted Adnan of the murder with the motive of being jealous of Hae’s new relationship. We argue that the motive of jealousy was what made Jay kill Hae Min Lee.

Edwin H. Sutherland’s propositions of differential association argues criminal behavior, like any other behavior, is learned from others. That is, “delinquent behavior is not an inherited trait but rather an acquired one” (Juvenile Delinquency, p.153). Sutherland claims that criminal behavior/ juvenile delinquency is learned through a youth’s relationship within intimate personal groups. These intimate groups are far more influential for adolescents than any other form of communication such as the media. In the case of Lee Boyd Malvo, he had a personal relationship with Muhammad, Malvo’s mother ex-boyfriend. After Malvo’s biological father left his mother, she often left Malvo unattended and in the care of friends. Malvo’s mother eventually abandoned him again which he then went to live with Muhammad, a gulf war veteran, who had became his father figure, friend and mentor. Malvo’s longing for a father was replaced by Muhammad and the duration of his time outside of school was with Muhammad. Malvo had only been living in the United States for a year after migrating from Jamaica, before he moved in with Muhammad. One can assume that Malvo became attached to Muhammad because he lacked a father figure as well as companionship in a new country where he felt alienated from family and friends in Jamaica. Muhammad later converted Malvo to Islam.

On May 10 2008, Jake Fahri, a nineteen-year-old teenager with a long history of anger and violence issues, threw an oven-proof dish at a boy in a local bakery in London. The 12 inch dish shattered and a shard of glass shot through the boy’s neck, leaving the boy, Jimmy Mizen, who just turned sixteen, to bleed to death. After killing, Fahri went underground and did not hand himself over to police until three days later. Based on Fahri’s background of bullying at school and his uncontrollable temper, the public believed his tears and “apology” to the Mizen family were contrived trick to win sympathy. Indeed, he showed no remorse during the trail and was sentenced to 14 years. It is common for the families of the victims show extreme anger toward

Answer: I think the authors point of view is one sided a little because he thinks everyone thinks their life out completely and has common sense. A lot of these crimes could have been prevented but you also have to take into account that persons circumstances. The crimes discussed in this chapter showcases that it can be a good explanation and not every murderer is a

First and foremost, The state's prosecution stated that Adnan's motive for killing Hae was their break up. He was heartbroken

“About 10,000 people in the United States are wrongfully convicted of serious crimes each year” (Tom Spring). Adnan Syed is another one of those cases. Millions of people have followed Adnan’s cases because of the podcast Serial by Sarah Koenig. Adnan Syed has been convicted of the incriminating evidence, but there is not enough key pieces to convict. Adnan Syed is not guilty because there is not enough evidence to prove it was him.

A slight time after the arrest, Asia composed and sent a few letters to Adnan. These letters revealed that Asia claimed to see Adnan in the library on January 13th. However, a short period later she declared that “She’d only written it because she was getting pressure from the family” (Koenig, “The Alibi”). Adnan was again left without an alibi because it is clear that Asia did not see him in the library that specific day. Hae was just a typical teenager before she was murdered, meaning she had a diary. The diary was “entered into evidence at the trial”, so Sarah Koenig had the opportunity to grasp a copy(Koenig, “The Breakup”). Several of the entries were complaints about Adnan. The couple seemed to posses many issues. Hae mentions that Adnan constantly reminds her that she “is against his religion.” He even goes the distance to call her “a devil a few times”(Koenig, “The Breakup”). Messages Hae left behind in her diary prove that Adnan had a rational for murdering her. Every student is guilty of passing notes in the course of their school years. Adnan and Aisha were no different. They decided to have a conversation where “they were joking, making fun of Hae, making fun of themselves” (Koenig, “The Case Against Adnan Syed”). Upon reviewing the note, the words “I’m going to kill” were found on top of the page in Adnan’s handwriting. Aisha doesn’t recall those frightening words being written during the original time of the note. She stated that while reading the note at the trial, it was her first time seeing that part. Adnan obviously made plans to murder Hae Min Lee on his own because the note was found while searching his house (Koenig, “The Case Against Adnan Syed”). Because of the written proof of tension between Hae and Adnan, there was obvious frustration, which was a motive for Adnan Syed to commit the

Adnan is a normal 17 year old teenager at woodlawn high school. He was the average muslim kid, in his parents eye’s he was a good muslim kid that never disappoints his family.at school adnan syed was also a normal american teenager. He was very popular at school and he experimented in the typical crazy things teenager do even though it's against his family and religious beliefs. one day adnan's ex girlfriend was found murdered. Adnan was soon after convicted of murdering hae lee but some people believe he didn't do it. Mainly because some the accusation that were brought up in his case was inconclusive.adnan is syed is innocent of hae's murder because he doesn't portray and motives of a jealous ex-boyfriend also the timeline doesn't really

On June 07, 2000, Adnan Syed was sentenced to life in prison for the murder of his former girlfriend Hae Min Lee. The evidence and statements made during this case changed often and did not prove Syed as guilty. Syed's friend, Jay Wilds, accused Syed of strangling Lee and showing him her body in a Best Buy parking lot. Wilds told the prosecution that he helped Syed bury her body in the Leakin Park woods on January 13, 1999. Many people had evidence that Syed could not have committed this crime; however, many of those people were never contacted or were never asked to testify.

Back in 1999 a murder case took place involving two students at Woodlawn High School resulting in the arrest of Adnan Syed. Adnan was the ex boyfriend of victim Hae Min Lee, and was the main suspect as her murderer. This case would have been straight and simple, however, information and allegations made by witnesses and alibi’s led to contradiction and confusion in the courts. With stories told by Jay, Adnan’s friend, and unexplained cellphone records, things became more confusing with each and every new piece of evidence presented. In my opinion there needs to be a retrial due to the fact that the evidence isn’t completely clear and several contradictions amongst the stories.

What would you do if you found out Jay was the murderer and all along Adnan was innocent and had nothing to do with Hae’s murder. The story if Serial narrated by Sarah Koenig is about, the murder of Hae Min Lee, Adnan Syed, and Jay Wilds. Adnan Syed is Hae’s ex and a suspect in Hae’s murder. Adnan is currently serving life for Hae’s murder. Jay Wilds is Adnan’s ex buddy and a suspect in Hae’s murder. Jay told police that Adnan did it. This story is interesting because this is such a wonderful mystery that they are trying to solve. I believe that Adnan Syed is guilty of the murder of Hae Min Lee because, he said he was going to kill Hae to several people and people say that they seen him at the library, where the murder might’ve happened.

Though murder is a crime amongst the most vile that a human commit, it shouldn’t warrant the denial of humanity. An act that is assumably committed by those deluded enough to allow overwhelming hatred to control them, murder is regarded as a conscious decision regarded as logical by these criminals. Unfortunately, for some it is a result of illogical actions produced from the lingering effects of childhood trauma, abuse, mental illness, or even accidents, but these factors are seldom considered by the average person due to fear of those labeled as murderers. Sentenced to life, Ashley Jones was tried as an adult while only fourteen, a result of murdering two relatives, who are later shown to have been abusive. Having “a horrific history of abuse

The exemplary novels are timeless not only for the stories they tell, but also for the vivid ways in which they depict society at the time when these stories were written. Through the analysis of Cervantes’s Jealous Extremaduran and Deceitful Marriage, one is able to see and dissect the many jobs and roles played by people in society during the 16th and 17th centuries in Spain.

On July 29th, 2015, 8-year-old Madyson "Maddy" Middleton was riding her scooter with her intimates at 1030 River St In Santa Cruz, California. During her ride, 15-year-old Adrian Jerry Gonzalez lured Madyson to go to his apartment which was in the same complex as Madyson. In the Apartment, Adrian raped Madyson then killed her and hid the corpse in the recycling bin of the complex. So who should be penalized for the tragic murder of Madyson? Should Adrian be punished? Should Adrian’s parents be punished? I believe That the parents should not be accountable and should not be punished for the violent crimes of their juvenile son or daughter.
