Serial Podcast Episode 7 SummarySerial

In episode six and seven, we’re introduced to various new character, including Nisha, Cathy, and Deirdre Enright. Nisha is Adnan’s friend who was talking to Adnan on the phone after he committed the murder. Cathy is Jen’s friend who has a different version of the murder, which would have to involve a third person. Last but not least, we met Deirdre Enright, a lawyer from the Justin Wolfe case. Both she and Sarah conversed about the possibilities of Adnan being a psychopath, and attempted to resolve the likelihood of this being true.

Serial Podcast Episode 7 Summary Season

As of now, both my group and I are having our doubts about Adnan committing the murder. In episode 6, Sarah reviews the case altogether, and also interviews Jen’s friend, Cathy, however, Adnan pointed out that in order for her story to be accurate, there would have to be a third person Adnan was talking to. If neither Adnan nor Jay can identify who this “third person” is, how can they assure Cathy’s side of the story is reliable? Also, in episode 7, when Deirdre Enright was interviewed, she was baffled as to why he was arrested with such little evidence, which I too agree with. This to me is a solid statement, because it simply does not make sense to me, especially considering the fact that some of the only evidence they had was fingerprints, which do not have a time stamp on them.

In the 6th episode of Serial, Cathy, Jen’s friend, was interviewed and asked what she knew about the case. She stated her side of the story, which would only be compatible if there was a third person involved. Afterwards, a woman Adnan was on a call with during the day of the murder, named Nisha, testified to not having a voicemail, despite the fact that Adnan said she did. Sarah states that this call is a big problem for Adnan. In episode 7, Sarah meets up with a lawyer involved in another case; the Justin Wolfe case. The lawyer’s name is Deirdre Enright, and the both discuss psychopathic tendencies. Sarah then shares her thoughts on how Adnan could potentially be a psychopath, however, Deirdre says that “she’s not that lucky to get a charming sociopath on her first case.” I predict in the next episode, they will go more in depth on psychopaths, and perhaps interview one and compare the interview to Adnan’s thoughts and actions.

Wolfe’s case is eerily similar to Adnan’s, with the only significant difference being that Wolfe was originally sentenced to death rather than prison. Sarah called up one of the defense attorneys on that case to see if she could offer any insight into Adnan’s case, and got much more than she bargained for.

Podcast

In the Justin Wolfe case article, I believe the speaker is the author, Dahlia Lithwick, because there is no other mentioned speaker or author in the article at all. This took place from when Justin Wolfe was arrested in 2001, to after the 7th episode of Serial was uploaded. As most articles relating to Serial are, the intended audience was for both listeners of serial, and/or people associated or familiar with the Justin Wolfe case. The author wrote the article to inform and update readers on Justin Wolfe’s status as a criminal and why he is currently in prison even after his prosecution ended. It primarily talks about how the verdict of the case constantly changed, as a man previously who testified against Wolfe, Barber, stated he previously lied and Wolfe had nothing to do with the case, but re-confessing and saying he did. The tone really is informative, as that’s mainly what’s occurring in the article.

Serial Podcast Episode 7 Synopsis

In both the Adnan Syed case, and the Justin Wolfe case, stories of witnesses kept changing. For example, various facts Jay previously stated were noted to change, in fact, even some of Adnan’s statements changed. This case is no different, because Barber’s story constantly changed, to the point where I personally would get him looked at to see if he was a psychopath, or had any association with the murder himself. I’m sure if you compared Barber’s actions with some on the psychopath list, there would be some matching traits of his on there. Overall, I am having my doubts about Adnan’s guilt, or even association, with this murder.
