People only think he's innocent because of that dodgy podcast.

Anyone seeking a clear and unbiased breakdown of this case should listen to Crime Weekly. It's a LONG one but worth the listen - as all of their stuff is! My opinion: he physically is the one who did it or had knowledge of the murder.

That’s my opinion as well.
If the victim had been in her mid to late twenties and involved somehow in criminality, I’d consider that Avenue more seriously but I think the evidence points towards him

It is obvious he did it. Thanks to some dumb podcast created to poke meaningless holes in the investigation for entertainment purposes, Hae's family has to go through all this. It's disgusting.

Thank you for this recommendation. After Serial and Undisclosed, I wasn’t sure what to think but was erring on the side of innocent. I’m going to listen to this one now!

It was a very good podcast, that was about as fair and balanced as you can get (no agenda on either side). And they presented some real smoking gun evidence from both sides that was not widely reported (or reported at all), which was really surprising. Even still, while I admit that I definitely leaned more towards him definitely being involved in some way; I still think there was enough reasonable doubt that he would be found not guilty (as someone else said, not guilty doesn't always equate to innocent).

Because it made good points about his innocence

None of the podcasts about syed developed a single shred of evidence as to his innocence.

And because there’s reasonable doubt as to his guilt.

My issue isn't that I know he is or is not guilty, but that there is no fucking way he should have been found guilty beyond a reasonable doubt.

Imagine thinking a podcast that did an entire red herring episode about the guy who found the body being the real killer only to say "Nevermind! See you next week!" was a serious effort to find the truth.

Even the producer said that he most likely did it.... in the podcast. People just love an entertaining story. More than thinking logically.

I bet that Adnan did it. If I were on a jury would I have voted to convict him though? Eh, I don't know. It seemed like there was a case for reasonable doubt. I remember one thing that bothered me was the prosecution using the testimony of Jay Wilds. That lying piece of shit could tell me the sun rises in the East and I would be skeptical.
All that being said I also know that my opinions carry no real world weight. Anyone who claims to know what happened based on listening to a podcast is way to sure of themselves.

The podcast that went into a lot of detail about the questions regarding his conviction... yeah no shit thats why people think he's innocent. There certainly wasn't great evidence to convict.

There's a substantial difference between "innocent" and "not guilty," and tbh it seems intentionally dishonest to frame those who believe there was reasonable doubt as people who believe he is "innocent."

After hearing the podcast, did I think he did it? yes. But I don’t think there was enough evidence to convict beyond a reasonable doubt.

I have less faith in our justice system than I do in that podcast.

Thank you. I feel like I'm taking crazy pills.
I honestly only know what I hear in the media, but I'm willing to admit that. So many people here 'know' he was innocent, somehow 'know' that the victim's family are somehow wrong and just the victims of the media, and now think they don't deserve rights.
It's a podcast. No one here is a cop, a prosecutor, the defense attorney, or knows the people involved. They heard Serial, don't trust the justice system and now because of those two things are assured that they know the truth and the young girl's family are somehow misinformed. Maybe everyone here should tell them to listen to Serial /s
