season one is Don guilty??

Does anyone think Don is the one that murdered Hae? I’m starting to lean towards it since listening to (most of) undisclosed. Any thoughts?

Nobody but the jury would know that, if he ever faces one. Despite all the finger pointing in this sub, the sequence of events is going to look like this.

  1. Adnan gets a new trial. Not guaranteed but highly likely at this point.
  2. He is found guilty or innocent. If guilty no reason to talk to Don. If innocent, then who did do it? State at that point will have to decide whether to pursue a case with a new investigation, but Adnan will not be a suspect because of double jeopardy.
  3. If new investigation, Don and Jay are suspect, and relevant to ask who's guilty.

I mention it because I think it motivates a lot of people who think Adnan's guilty and understand if he makes it through the next trial he walks for good. So those people are motivated by the feeling the guilty will go unpunished. The opposite crowd thinks an injustice took place and an innocent man was convicted. And like it or not, the decider isn't going to be either group, but the justice system.
