I've seen the detective's notes from that interview, and they're remarkably uninteresting.

But by the time she left that night, Jen thought it was possible she was about to get charged.

At trial, she said the last thing Detective McGillivary said to her that night was, quote, everyone's a suspect and no one's a suspect.

So the next day, she goes back to the detectives.

This time, she's got reinforcements.

She's got an attorney with her, plus her mom.

They turn on a tape recorder.

Who, what, where, when, why?

So Jen gives them a motive, hay broke Adnan's heart, and a method, he strangled her, which of course they already knew.

But then Jen's information gets a little muddier.

Jay has told her, And he tells her that all this went down at the Best Buy parking lot off Security Boulevard, about a mile from Woodlawn High School.

Jay and Jen were close friends at this time, winter of 99, talking or hanging out almost every day.

They'd known each other since elementary school, and they were in the same class at Woodlawn.

They'd graduated the year before, in 98.

Now Jen was a freshman at UMBC, University of Maryland, Baltimore County.

She was studying biochemistry.

She was in a sorority.

When Hay disappeared, Jen was on winter break.

She was working part-time as a lifeguard.

And Jay was also working.
