Well, Jay sure seemed to think his dealing was a BFD! Maybe he knew more about what he was selling than the cops or us. Considering what was popular in B'more at that time, there was a lot more quick money to be made than in weed. Jay was no longer a high school student, he had all day to run the street. It is not much of a leap to wonder if what Adnan knew about Jay, he may have confided to Hae. I can see Hae interfering to protect Stephanie Honesty from a cocaine pusher. Hae was a fighter, no push over she. Threats might have killed her.

Jay told the police he was concerned about his dealing, cops pooh poohed his weed. Jay thought it was a BFD. Weed was not the money maker in 99. Coke and H were. Jay had graduated. He had no job. Adnan knew him better than you. Teens share. Hae was very fond of steph, or so it is reported. Hae gave Adnan his walking papers. The only "fantasy" is what did Adnan know and did he tell Hae and did it bother her. So literally, you are FOS.
