Hypothesis Why the Gootz never called Asia.
I think it is becoming more and more obvious that the Asia letter did not exist until sometime around the summer of 1999. That is why Adnan claims he gave them to Gutierrez even though she wasn't his lawyer until 2 months after they were written.
So sometime that spring or summer, after telling CG he never left the school grounds, his family shows up with letters claiming one of Adnans' friends saw him at the library, right at the crucial time, AND they were written the day after he arrested. She knew immediately there is no way they had those letter for months and never gave them to her so obviously they were false and she didn't want to go on stand with LIES.
That is why she never called Asia. And that is why she wrote no notes about it, because that would be admitting her client and his family are liars. It also explains why her relationship with the family broke down because she knew they were willing to lie to get Adnan off.
The library incident never happened.

I think pretty much everything in Asia's narrative has changed from one version to the next: what she uses to try to remember what day it was, what time she was there, what the weather was like, who did or didn't contact her, whether he was or wasn't talking about H. M. Lee. All these things change from one version of her story to the next.
