best buy

from serial posted in radio by nevereatshreddedwheat

According to Jay (the boyfriend of Adnan's friend Stephanie), Adnan showed him Hae Min Lee's body in the trunk of her car in this Best Buy parking lot on January 13, 1999. Jay's testimony was the basis for the state's case against Adnan.

In episode 05 of WBEZ Chicago's podcast Serial, Sarah Koenig and her producer Dana prove it is possible to drive from WoodLawn High School, immediately after it lets out, to the Best Buy parking lot in under twenty-one minutes. This fits (just barely) the timeline during which the prosecution says Adnan killed Hae.

woodlawn public library

from serial posted in radio by nevereatshreddedwheat

Adnan Syed may or may not have been at this public library near Woodlawn High School during the twenty-one minutes after school on January 13, 1999 when the prosecution said Hae Min Lee was killed. Asia McClain, a student at WoodLawn High School, claimed in a series of letters to have seen Adnan at this time. This would have provided an alibi for Adnan, but it was never used by his defense in the case.

You can find out more in episode 01 of WBEZ Chicago's podcast Serial.
