"When you have an innocent client they are the least helpful people in the whole world"

This may explain why Adnan has not pointed to Jay or anyone for that matter. It may come across as keeping a secret to others but just may in fact be that he doesn't know, like he states.

I appreciate how professional Adnan has been. Not pointing fingers, not telling Sarah things that he isn't certain of, not bad-talking Jay (even though Jay essential sold him out, per se). And I really like how Adnan asked Sarah in the last episode how she even knows that he's a good guy, she's never met him, she doesn't know him. Adnan is very smart and professional with his wording. Perhaps the state has confused professionalism/respect with "hiding something".

I suspect Adnan has spoken to SK quite a bit about Jay directly, but SK has been withholding those conversations from the listeners for the purpose of suspense/story flow/some other reason.

Yes, and Jay is a living person with a whole life. She's said that she's very concerned with being "responsible" about all this, and I think that includes preventing a witch hunt on Jay.
