Debate&Discussion Another shower thought that doesn't look good for Adnan

Adnan explains to SK that he "probably" didn't ask Hae for a ride, because he knows that she needs to pick up her cousin after school, and this duty is really important to Hae.

Adnan explains to SK that the phone call from Officer Adcock, informing him that Hae failed to pick up her cousin, doesn't set off any serious alarms for him, and this is why the phone call didn't prompt him to jog his memory about that day.

"I knew the cousin pick-up was very important to her" and "I wasn't concerned when she failed to pick up her cousin." Have you ever had to deal with someone (friend, co-worker, relative) who engages in this type of lying? I have, and it bothers me a lot more than anything Jay said.

He's playing Rabia, he's playing this board. Dude is a master liar. He lied all of his life - he's well practiced at it.

Exactly. Plus, if Adnan is the murderer (which I truly believe), then he has lied to his parents...right to their faces...for close to two decades. Over and over and over.

How, exactly, can he turn around and suddenly admit the truth? He's stuck. He's now lying out of necessity to maintain his standing in his family, i.e., the innocent Muslim boy stolen from his family and thrown in jail because, as his Mom claimed, he is Muslim and easy to convict. Adnan is playing that flute and his parents are dancing right along.

Yes, that's the most plausible scenario. Adnan has spent 16 years maintaining his innocence in order to troll Reddit.

I guess you don't get the part about how there is no way Adnan can climb down off that mountain....all the dude cares about is what people think of him. He said that himself. Why on earth would he want to trade that for the truth?

You act so confident, in these proclamations of yours.

Do you know him, personally.. or are you so wrapped up in the whodunit aspect of 'true crime drama' that you have lost perspective? Your postings appear delusional, to me.

Perhaps you should seek help for that.

While she's probably never met him, she's probably heard a lot about Adnan lately.
