There is a very slim chance that Adnan got out of school at 2:15 p.m., stopped by the concession stand at school, waited on the buses, drove the 4-minute drive to Best Buy, and strangled Hae by 2:36. Sarah says, “this timeline could work, but it is very unlikely because it leaves Adnan with a minute and a half window to kill Hae” (Koenig Episode 5). It seems nearly impossible that Adnan strangled and put Hae’s body in the trunk in just under 2 minutes. The state’s timeline gives no room for mistakes or errors, and ultimately just wouldn’t have worked. Lastly, the cell phone records in this case are not accurate.

Adnan, as is said by Sarah Koeing, "Adnan was the kind of kid who would stand up when your parents came into the room, Ali said. At parties or events, he’d be the first one to ask, 'how can I help you, Aunty? Do you need help setting up those tables, Uncle?'"(Serial Transcript 11).

These people say that since Hae broke up with Adnan and that was enough reason to want her dead. However, Adnan was a smart kid who would realize that killing someone for breaking up with you is not a valid reason. Adnan was not hurt enough to kill Hae; he was devastated when she died and he didn't know about it when he was told. Also, they say that Adnan had enough time to kill Hae.
