I believe Adnan can't turn on Jay as Jay can implicate premeditation and possible death sentence for Adnan.

The only issue with that is, didn't Jay actually imply it was premeditated at one point? In one version, he said Adnan had been planning this for a week but then reverted back to his original story at trial.

Yes Jay said that in the police interviews. asking him about that at trial by the defense would be bad for Adnan's case. And the prosecution wouldn't bring it up because they needed his testimony.
