Through the events in the Serial podcast, Adnan was convicted of murder. Although there was no evidence of him murdering Hae, Adnan was pleaded guilty. His dis-honesty throughout the podcast made people to believe it was actually him who had killed her.

If Adnan wasn't Muslim and could have been a little more truthful during this case, I feel as if the Serial podcast would be something totally different than what it is
