The strongest piece of evidence we found that shows that Adnan is innocent is the fact that Adnan supposedly has an alibi that he was in the library on January 13th in the time period where Hae would’ve been killed. To back it up he also has a witness, Asia McClain. “When I first heard about the long-lost Asia letters and the lawyer's mistake, I thought, well, their fight is over, right? They've got an alibi witness who was never heard from. It's such a slam dunk.
