New Podcast Seeks to Take Back the Narrative of an Innocent Adnan Syed

The other thing I'd like to see is to put some timeframes around the events an present it in a chronological order. That's one of the strengths of this sub and the timelines. For example, it shows how quickly things went from the Prom night through to the second break up, the final break up, the relationship with Don and then to the 13th Jan. I think it would demonstrate the speed at which things happened and how that would have affected Syed. It is noticeable how both Syed and Rabia try to stretch things out to help create the impression Adnan had moved on and the relationship was past history. Rabia even in one interview said the second break up occurred months after the Prom night. Sarah's jumping between events also helps to unwittingly create that impression. Putting events in sequence and within a time frame puts that into sharp relief.

Agreed. A simple walkthrough the the lead up and the investigation--the main elements of it, I mean--would do a hell of a lot of good toward setting up some basic knowledge. It'd also demonstrate just how reasonable the detective work was: they were interviewing the right people and following the right leads, they didn't focus in on Adnan immediately, and the sequence of events from the break up to the murder are very telling.
