This story is interesting because Adnan is still in jail convicted of murder even right now, and no one has yet cracked the case of who really kill this girl Hae Min Lee and why?, what was the reason for this cruel act? I believe that Adnan Syed is innocent of the murder of Hae Min Lee because Adnan was on time to track practice that time.

This part of the story is when “Sarah Koenig Dave gave me his daughter’s number, I went to see her right away. Her name is Laura, here’s what she remembered about what The Neighbor Boy told her that day.Laura he was, with a friend and the friend said something like, ‘look what I have’ and he popped the trunk and that’s what he saw. Sarah Koenig did he seem upset or..?
