That person is an 18-year-old girl named Jennifer Pusateri.
Jen is not a friend of Adnan's.
Remember, Jay had Adnan's car that day and his new cell phone.
That's Jen talking to detectives about the night of January 13th.
If you want to figure out this case with me, now is the time to start paying close attention, because we have arrived, along with the detectives, at the heart of the thing.
This interview with Jen happens on February 27th, 1999.
The day before, on the 26th, the cops had gone to find Jen at her house.
They explained they'd like her to come downtown to talk.
Jen is thoroughly wigged out.
She says she can't right now.
Then Jen and a friend go see Jay.
He's at work at a video store.
She tells Jay, the police want to talk to me.
At trial, Jen says, quote, he told me to go down there and tell them what I knew.
Tell them enough to keep me out of trouble and tell them to go see Jay.
So Jen goes downtown to see the cops later that night, and she lies to them, says she doesn't know anything.
