Adnan's parents say she ended up bullying them for money, once insisting that they bring $10,000 in cash to court. One of her main arguments against a mobile phone expert fell apart and she failed to properly attack the state's timeline of events.

Several people who were at the second trial, including Adnan, suggested Gutierrez had a confusing way of presenting evidence. She argued that it was "patently improper" as it could look like Jay was being influenced by the state and she said that the defence should have been informed. Gutierrez saw this as the "magic information" at the time. At one point Jay admitted that the prosecution had provided him with a private lawyer. Koenig says, in the second trial, Gutierrez's main defence for Adnan was that someone else had killed Hae: either Jay, whose testimony secured Adnan's conviction Don, Hae's new boyfriend or 'Mr S', the man who found Hae's body. Gutierrez requested the mistrial herself, fearing that the jury would not trust her after overhearing the accusation from the judge.

Gutierrez was accused by the judge of lying after she claimed she had not seen a piece of mobile phone evidence about to be presented by the prosecution.

But Koenig questions if Gutierrez ultimately "blew" the case for him and reveals why Adnan's first trial collapsed. He just wanted control and she wouldn't give it to him." Did defence lawyer Cristina Gutierrez blow it?Īdnan says he had a "great deal of affection" for Gutierrez, a renowned defence attorney in Maryland, who died in 2004. Another tells Koenig: "I know in some cultures women are second class citizens and maybe that's what it was. One juror said she remembered a fellow juror saying that in Arabic culture "men rule, not women". Koenig says the jurors she spoke to insisted that religion had not influenced them, but that stereotypes about culture were lurking in the background. The prosecution apologised a few weeks later for misleading the court after claiming that there was a "pattern" of Pakistani men committing murder after they had been jilted.

However, the prosecution "wash-cast" the same room full of people as "aiders and abetters" who could help Adnan run away to Pakistan, says Koenig. The defence argued that this community of doctors, teachers, lawyers and religious leaders were willing to supervise Adnan if he was released on bail and accompany him back to court. While Koenig does not buy this explanation, she examines the way Adnan's religion and culture were dealt with in court.Īt a bail hearing in March 1999, "bus loads" of people from Adnan's mosque came to support him. Did discrimination play a part in Adnan's conviction?Īdnan's mother, Shamim, believes her son is completely innocent and was "easy to target" by authorities because he is a Muslim.

She also reveals why Adnan's first trial collapsed. In this week's episode, Koenig looks at whether discrimination played a part in Adnan’s conviction and whether his defence lawyer Gutierrez "blew" the case. Her ex-boyfriend Adnan Syed was later convicted of her murder. The 18-year-old student's body was found in February 1999 strangled and buried in a shallow grave.
