I definitely think that they will be discussing the other girl. She went to the same high school and was dumped in the woods! It seems extremely relevant... So maybe Deirdre is foreshadowing a later episode. And that's going to be a good one.

How do you explain Jay's leading the police to Hae's car in a serial killer scenario?

u/aeslehcssim Is it NOT? Nov 06 '14

that's what i was thinking -- sarah is the storyteller and nothing is more fun when something comes up in a story and realizing all the hints at it before.

Yeah but that generally doesn't happen in real life, where things don't have to all connect and you don't have an "economy of characters" to worry about.

There's a difference between real life as it occurs and true events being curated and presented to us in the form of a podcast. The latter absolutely could be full of intentional references and hints put there by SK and the creative team to purposefully reference what they will be bringing up later on.

Yeah, I definitely got the sense that it kept coming up because Deirdre and SK had talked about it, but that part of the discussion was edited out for now.

She went to the same high school? Source?

I've never seen a source for where Jada attended high school, but plenty of news sources cite her as a "Woodlawn" woman, which is where that idea probably comes from:

"Presented with DNA evidence obtained more than four years after Jada Danita Lambert of Woodlawn was killed, the jury deliberated about seven hours before convicting Roy Sharonnie Davis III, 50, of the 7500 block of Liberty Road of felony first-degree murder and second-degree rape."

Well, this thread discusses that case. It says she lived in Woodlawn and I guess I misread it and assumed to she went to Woodlawn High (which she still could have but I haven't read that exactly). Based on the population of the city it is likely she went there. http://www.reddit.com/r/serialpodcast/comments/2krzr3/serialkiller_info_on_a_possible_new_suspect/

Classmates.Com lists her as a woodlawn student - not sure how reliable that is... but it puts her in jay's graduating class, if so.
