re: "Serial" Podcast Discussion Thread...SPOILERS

I didn't see this thread here until just today...but I have been gripped by Serial for the past month.
I thought Episode 9 really threw things off kilter. It's really becoming even more meta now, what with the real-time updates at the beginning. The Best Buy phone booth thing just seems really puzzling to me. Why would Jay make up something like that?
I think where I am now is that the prosecution definitely was faulty and there clearly was a reasonable doubt (I mean, come on...no physical evidence AND seemingly relevant players not even searched or interviewed by the police?!?!?)
However, it seems like only one or both of them are the people who did it. Why would Jay have implicated himself at all if he hadn't at least seen the body?
I generally don't buy the "psychopath trolling us all", but I will say that Adnan is extremely articulate, and thus would seem to be quite intelligent.
I really don't know what to make of it...between the timeline, the phone booth and the cell records, it seems like an unsolvable puzzle.

Just a heads up, Slate Magazine will be releasing a special episode the Wednesday before Turkey Day. Just thought I'd let y'all know.

That's been my feeling from the start, and it is extremely disheartening to see the police and prosecution so hellbent on getting an arrest and conviction, that they ignore evidence that could exonerate their main suspect. I mean, I know it happens all the time, but it makes our criminal justice system look like a mockery.
