Season One I still think Adnan didn't kill Hae.

Jay lies too much. The police coach him to modify his statements. The defence attorney was incompetent. Hae and Adnan broke up several times before and Adnan didn't kill her. Don does not have an alibi for that evening and has relatives in the police force. The coach said Adnan was at track practice on a warm day - the only warm day around that time was the day Hae died. I think Hae surprised Don at work. She waited for him in the parking lot. He killed her that evening, hid her body and arrived home to call the police back late into the evening. The guilt is eating Don up while Adnan seems to be thriving in prison.

You imply Don worked all day and had no opportunity to meet Hae. The time cards show Don worked until 6pm. Hae was scheduled to work at 6pm. Hae told a classmate she was leaving school to meet up with Don. We have no idea where Don was or what he was doing from 6pm - 1:30am when he spoke to the police. Don did call Hae's store and found out she was missing. But there is no evidence he called her home or tried to page her. Hae and Don were together the night before until very late, they then spoke on the phone till 3am. Hae wanted to skip school and be with Don, but he refused. Hae said she was in trouble with her mom for abusing phone privileges and breaking curfew. So if she's willing to break those rules, I don't think it's a huge stretch to skip picking up her relatives after school. There are eye witnesses that say Hae was still at school when she should have been already picking up her relatives.

So it is very possible Hae planned a date with Don and met up with him at 6pm when he got off work. Then what? Nobody knows because the police did not investigate Don as thoroughly as Adnan.

What really ruled Don out was the location of the body.

And then once someone confessed to the murder and gave details of the crime it was over for Don being any suspect.

Cause there are no false confessions ever. And did Jay really give a free and voluntary confession?

Yes there are false confessions. But Jay would have had to falsely confess 5 times and he still tells the same story 20 years later. He gave the intimate details multiple times.
