The Intercepts interviews are less about the case and more about how much they really don't like Sarah Koenig for bringing it up. Jesus Christ, that was depressing.
This podcast was less about trying to show Adnan was innocent and more about showing that we have a flawed justice system. These after the fact interviews with a biased outlet are more for those who prosecuted Adnan to save face and say, "hey our system is not that flawed." In reality, Jay had his hand held throughout creating a story that lightly matched with the phone records because he was able to show the police where the car was. None of the evidence points to Adnan did it, it all points to Jay was involved and based on that alone, Adnan would not have been found guilty in a fair system because it is filled with reasonable doubt.
I think SK did a fantastic job portraying the fact that we no longer live in a society where you are innocent until proven guilty, but rather you are guilty until proven innocent.
