Looking back on Season 1, "unsatisfying" seems to best characterize her investigation. Maybe I'm more easily swooned by good storytelling because it didn't detract me from finding it intriguing enough to follow along.

My personal theory is along similar lines to yours. I think that Adnan did something dumb that afternoon that, when brought to light, would make him look very suspicious. Hence the reason he was acting strange that evening.

PS: /r/serialpodcast went full bananas last season, so I'd check that once in a while for a good read.

You don't think Adnan did it?

Well no, I'm not entirely convinced of that. It's been a year so I don't remember the details exactly but I think it is more likely that Jay did it or that he got Jay to do it for him. He doesn't have clean hands, that's for sure.

Yeah, as far as who actually killed her, it could have been either from the information available. But it would be very difficult to see how neither of them weren't involved unless the lies went much deeper.
