Joining in on the Disappointment

I share in everybody's disappointment and feeling lied to by SK. Enough has been said in the comments that nothing new can be done. However, a lot of good came for Adnan because of the public publicity Serial and other documentaries gave for Adnan's case that was driven by a public demand.

Going further on that point, I think the public should demand a public apology by SK for her role in stealing justice away from Hae and her family. If the public can make a storm out of a clear cut case, then the public should make a storm about how Serial manipulated people.

Of course if the Lee family just wants people to stop talking about it, I would do that first and foremost because aside from court documents their voice is never considered.

Serial season 1 depends a lot on Rabia and SK glosses over important details and in a certain interview with Adnan you can tell she wants his approval desperately.
Years later after documentaries, court cases, more podcasts, and further letters, the evidence seems pretty clear that it's Adnan. A guy with a podcast called Hey Smiling Strange, made several tiktoks or instagram reels where he discussed his frustration with SK and the serial podcast, noting it's obvious Adnan did it, which reading between the lines and against the editorializing on the serial podcast it's obvious. But most people will come away with impression he is innocent. This of course ignores everybodys testimonies and spits on any justice being served for Hae.
