#JAY SERIAL PODCAST SUMMARY EPISODE 1 TRIAL#

This episode was extremely weird for me because it has made me a permanent fence rider in this case. This case is constantly pulling me as a listener, into two different directions, one minute I am with Syed and his innocence, and then IвЂ™m not.

#JAY SERIAL PODCAST SUMMARY EPISODE 1 SERIAL#

Serial unfolds one story - a true story - over the. вЂњI canвЂ™t believe that he wont even man up and admit it.вЂќ Jay told Koenig and her Producer. Serial is a podcast from the creators of This American Life, hosted by Sarah Koenig.

He was still at the time of the conversation with Koenig, still very sure that Adnan killed Hae Min Lee. At first it is Edmenson Avenue, then it is Best Buy parking lot (which matches Jen's story) He says that he lied about the first location because he 'didn't want to be associated with it if there were cameras at Best Buy' but if there were security cameras, it would've helped Jay. However, what weвЂ™re unsure of is what happened to change JayвЂ™s story from A to B, and we do not know what happened in the interrogatingвЂ“ those three hours and that will always result in a question as to what the final outcome should have been.вЂќДЄnother piece of the podcast I found interesting was when Koenig went to talk to Jay Wilde. Okay? I would have probably followed this same route. Trainum states, вЂњBut what IвЂ™m saying is this: the mechanics, the documentation, the steps that they took, and all of that, they look good. In this episode of the podcast, Koenig also talks to detective Jim Trainum, a detective who works with pulling apart false confessions, however he was skeptical of some aspects in the case at well, one of them being the inconsistencies in JayвЂ™s entire story. AdnanвЂ™s lawyer asked if he told the truth in his second interview and he stated вЂњI did not tell them everything, no.вЂќ As a juror why did this confession not stick for Stella Gray? Why did this confession not stick for the other on the jury as well? Therewere a few times when Jay tripped up in his on stand confession, one that was huge for me as a listener and should have been huge for the jury was when he admitted to вЂњsomewhatвЂќ lying on the stand.

#JAY SERIAL PODCAST SUMMARY EPISODE 1 TRIAL#

The podcast went into depth about JayвЂ™s trial testimony as well as the cross examination. As a listener I found it odd that the jury was never told nor had they ever heard about how Jay Wilde wasnвЂ™t given any time.

When Koenig broke it to her that Jay Wilde walked free, she responded somewhat shocked but she didnвЂ™t change her views on Syed being guilty. An interesting piece of the conversation was when Gray assumed that Jay Wilde, the guy man who testified against Adnan Syed, wouldnвЂ™t lie about helping him bury the body because he still had to serve jail time too.

(Int.1 at 24-25.) We also know that, prior to the interview on March 15, 1999, there was a pre-interview that lasted even longer than the one before the first interview. In Serial Episode 8, Host Sarah Koenig starts off by talking with one of the jurors from the case, Stella Gray. As discussed in Episode 8 of Serial, This is whatвЂ™s called the pre-interview, and Jim Trainum says, thatвЂ™s where the mischief can happen.
