Asia claimed she saw him the day of the murder in the library while she was with her boyfriend and boyfriend’s friend. She also claims that they had a conversation that day. Also, he could be innocent because Jay’s testimony had multiple inconsistencies. For instance, in Jay’s testimony he talked about how he and Adnan went up to Patapsco State Park to smoke and that's when Adnan and him talked about Hae, but when he testified in court, the whole story on it disappeared like it never happened.
