Too many people on the internet are expecting her to just pull out a definitive conclusion to this :lol: Most we can expect is for her to drop this semi-journalistic veil and give her personal opinion.

Exactly. I would like to hear more from that Innocence Project team though.

Can't wait to hear the final episode on the commute home tonight. I'm suspecting something very similar to the Funny or Die sketch! :lol:

Episode 12: Finale - What We Know (55mins), 18th December
On January 13, 1999, Adnan Syed was a hurt and vengeful ex-boyfriend who carried out a premeditated murder. Or he was a bewildered bystander, framed for a crime he could never have committed. After 15 months of reporting, we take out everything we’ve got - interviews and documents and police reports - we shake it all out, and we see what sticks.

I've only listened once while shopping but I'm not sure what to make of that.

Pretty good final episode, wrapped it up nicely with some new info, viewpoints from her colleagues, summary of the case and her conclusion. Pretty much echoed my (and seemingly most peoples) thoughts with there wasn't enough to convict him. She seemed more to innocence whilst I'm still 50/50.

Hope there is another episode next year with a wrap up on the latest.

So, I've been of the opinion that he probably didn't do it. I'm slightly disappointed that there was no inconclusive proof found either way.
Most shocking has been the way the case seems to have been handled originally.

I think that was the best ending we could have realistically expected to be honest. It was nice to hear from Don and the Innocence Project team and I'd be interested to find out if anything happens with that DNA test.

My final opinion is that Adnan probably did it but there was nowhere near enough evidence to convict.

The fact that Adnan is clearly lying about exactly what he did that day makes me feel uneasy. There is absolutely not enough evidence to convict a 17 year old of murder though.

Ultimately I just find it massively frustrating that we'll probably never know what really happened that day.

So apparently now that the podcast is done Jay has posted on his Facebook page that he wants to do an interview.

Hmm.

Jay is right, Sarah Koenig is the real monster here. Not the guy who buried a murdered teenager.
