Adnan Syed claimed to have his phone on him when he allegedly was not at Leakin Park. If Adnan really had his phone on his person, “there is no reasonable explanation for these pings other then that the phone was near or in Leakin park which Adnan claims to have not been near” (Sigizmundfreud).

An excerpt from Hae’s diary stresses Adnan’s obsession, “The second thing is the possessiveness. I’m a very independent person. I rarely rely on my parents. Although I love him, it’s not like I need him. I know I’ll be just fine without him, and I need some time for myself and things other than just him. How dare he get mad at me for planning to hang with Aisha? The third thing is the mind play. I’m sure it’s out of jealousy. Shit, I don’t get jealous. And I think whoever trying to get me jealous is a fool because you’ll definitely lose me. I prefer a straight relationship that doesn't get people mixed in, he just wanted to play mind games” (Sigizmundfreud). Cleary, Adnan was not only obsessed but felt as though he owned Hae as well. Someone so selfish would have the tendency to get upset when things regarding said person didn’t go their way. This is a red flag because if Hae had moved on and Adnan still had the same feelings it would give him reason to lash out. This is reflected by Adnan’s note on the letter Hae left him about the breakup. “On the back of this note, Adnan Syed wrote: “I’m going to kill.” The police found the note when they searched the Syeds’ house after his arrest” (Brocklehurst, Ann). Adnan’s possibility to lash out should be stressed because of this note. He physically says he is going to kill and considering the situation Hae would be the unfortunate target. Adnan’s problem was had gotten so bad that Hae felt the need to protect herself from him, in a discussion with Hae’s French teacher Hope Schab during Trial 1 she describes a situation where Hae called her on a classroom phone saying that “Adnan and I got in a fight and I don’t want him to know I am here so I won’t be coming to you” (Brocklehurst, Ann). Hae would have had no reason to fear her significant other unless there was a prior threat and/or underlying past of physical abuse which was taken too far
