Only problem is that the show itself, including Koenig, hasn't defamed him. That he was involved in the murder is proven (his testimony and plea deal). That he's lied already is proven (testimony again). You can't claim defamation when it involves the truth.far be it from me to tell the best selling podcast in history how to do their job, but I really think they missed an opportunity.
I would have run about 8 episodes, then taken a 3-4 month break.
You have millions of detectives available. Use them to crack the case open, find the best lines of reasoning and continue researching.
It seems like the did the researching, but once the podcast started, there wasn't a lot of new information.
Also, you have to wonder how a guy like Jay is reacting to this podcast. Does he have legal rights to sue? If defamation of character is a real thing, this podcast has a large number of people in the country that think he's a murderer.
Imagine for a moment that you are Jay, that you are telling the truth and are truly innocent (not completely innocent because we know he was an accomplice, but not guilty of the murder) and have been cleared in a court of law.
Then this podcast comes out and this lady clearly is on the side of the convicted murderer and has millions of people listening and believing her.
What would you do?
I'd sue the crap out of the show for defamation of character.
Adnan also seems like he's done with the show too...it has to be a weird feeling going from anonymous jail guy to bigtime jailed celebrity. Millions of people know all about his case. Just really weird.
And your months-long break idea would only exacerbate the problem with both Jay and Adnan that you're describing.
