What do I do?” At trial, Jenn says, “he told me to go down there and tell them what I knew. She tells Jay, “the police want to talk to me. She says she can't right now, she's busy, maybe later. They explained they'd like her to come downtown to talk. The day before, on the 26th, the cops had gone to find Jenn at her house. This interview with Jenn happens on February 27, 1999. And that's when I was just like – whoa – what do you mean Adnan killed Hae? Why? What? How? When? Where? You know? Sarah Koenig If you want to figure out this case with me, now is the time to start paying close attention because we have arrived, along with the detectives, at the heart of the thing. And I was like alright – what's up dude? He's like, um, Adnan killed Hae. Jennifer Pusateri And I was like alright. Jennifer Pusateri He says "Jenn, you gotta swear you won't tell nobody what I'm about to tell you." Sarah Koenig That's Jenn talking to detectives about the night of January 13. Remember, Jay had Adnan's car that day and his new cell phone. Much more often than anyone else.” That person is an eighteen year old girl named Jennifer Pusateri. One person was called six times that day. Once they do, they realize, “wait a minute. Obviously, the first thing they had to do was figure out who all the phone numbers belong to. If you look at that call log from January 13, there are thirty four calls that day. And they'll follow it call by call by call, like footprints that end up at Adnan's front door. That list will become arguably the most important piece of paper among all the thousands in this case. The results of that subpoena include a list of all the calls dialed and received on Adnan's phone on January 13, the day Hae disappeared. They get a subpoena for Adnan's cell phone records. Anyway, the day after the pizza hut talk, on February 16, the detectives do some paperwork that will ultimately crack the whole case open for them. But so far, I only have guesses that I can't responsibly say out loud. Because it seemed to me whoever made this call, he must be the key to the whole thing. I don't know anything.” Their notes from that conversation say “If Adnan wanted to get rid of the car, where would he do so?” Ali indicated, “somewhere in the woods, possibly in Centennial Lake or the inner harbor.” No one has ever gotten to the bottom of who made this anonymous call. Three days after the anonymous call, the detectives go meet with Yasser Ali at a Pizza Hut. The caller says Yasser might know something. Actually, the name of this friend is Yasser Ali. Then, a few minutes later, the same guy calls back and says, “oh yeah, by the way.”ĭetective Ritz This time the caller remembered about a year ago the suspect informed a friend of his (Vasser Ali – Asian Male – 17) “if he ever hurt his girlfriend, he would drive her car into a lake.” Sarah Koenig This time the caller mentions a friend of Adnan's, Vasser Ali. Prior to concluding the phone interview, the caller further stated that the victim broke off the relationship with her boyfriend about a week before she was reported missing. Detective Ritz The caller further advised that the boyfriend has taken to the, the victim to Leakin park on past occasions for sexual encounters. But anyway, a mystery caller says look at the ex-boyfriend. The call must have an accent of some kind because Massey's reports describes him as an “ Asian Male 18 to 21 years old,” though its unclear whether Asian in this case means East Asian like Korean or South Asian like Pakistani. The call came in to Detective Massey, a Baltimore county cop. He's talking about how they got this anonymous call three days after Hae's body was found. That's Detective Ritz on the witness stand at trial. Sarah Koenig This memo he's talking about is regarding an anonymous call. It's from Detective Darryl Massey to Detective Greg MacGillivary. S, the guy who found Hae's body, that they were also starting to look at Adnan? Well, the reason we know that is because of this memo: The memo is dated 12 February 1999. Remember how last time I ended by saying that the detectives had other leads in this case besides Mr. Automated voice This is a Global-Tel link prepaid call from Adnan Syed an inmate at a Maryland Correctional facility… Sarah Koenig From This American Life and WBEZ Chicago, it's Serial. Adnan Syed You know, it was not abnormal for me to leave school to go do something and then come back. I'm like where is that? Do you even know where it is? Have you ever been there? Jay -went shopping with a friend of mine- an ex-friend of mine, Adnan.
