Re: Serial Watchers

  • I love how at the end he's like, "The serial podcast is stupid."  Uh OK dude.  

    It's an interesting theory.  And quite plausible.  

    But again, the thing we're learning from this is not really whether or not Adnan did it.  It's more about how this case shows how fucked up the criminal justice system is AND how it's really more about how convincing you can be about someone's guilt or innoncence, regardless of how much or little evidence you have.  Andplusalso, to the shock of no one, how racially biased people can be and when people make up juries, they don't check those biases at the door.  
  • I'm more a listener than a watcher but whatever.

    I agree with MrsConn. I think the majority of the public thinks cases that go to trial are slam dunks- lots of DNA evidence, alibis falling apart, etc. but this really shines light on the trials where the real evidence is someone's word and how problematic that can be.
