Serial: Episode 5

During episode 5 of serial, Sara decides to trace Adnan's possible murder time. Accorfing to the state and Jay's story, there was a time slot of 21 minutes for the murder to occur. Sara spoke to Adnan about how an after school day was and how long it took to get out of the parking lot, and if 21 minutes would be enough for everything to occur.  According to Adnan, it took about 10 minutes due to all the loading of the busses. So, Sara being the ‘detective’ she is. decided to trace back every information the state used against Adnan, and would could have possible been done in those 21 minutes. Sara had to get out of school parking lot, drive to Best Buy with enough time to strangle Hae, and still call Adnan’s best fiend Jay—sarcasm. Sara’s discovered that it was possible for everything to occur in 21 minutes, however there was no space/time for errors, everything had to be precise. During this test run, Sara also discovered that there was no trace of a phone booth near Best Buy, nothing. Also, there was no way for Adnan to be back before 4pm, according to Jay’s story. One thing the court pinned Adnan in was his cell tower records. To Sara this didn't make sense, and after speaking to an expert, they claimed that cell towers aren't alway accurate. This also throws off the states claim. According to my beliefs and ways of thinking, even if Adnan did murder Hae, Jay must have been involved. Also, this case and its facts are just all over the place.
