Koenig seems to try to confess to her audience in a attempt to keep her reader ethos look on her. Maybe thinking that this episode was so focused on sympathy to Adnan that she needed to tell her audience that she is being bias and that she is letting Adnan look like a good person. She does back it up with other people confirming this belief, which allows her to say this.

Koenig seems to be attempting to develop pathos in her audience by describing how it feels for Adnan to be silent in the trial. To maybe develop a sense of sympathy to Adnan. To make people sympathetic to Adnan would bring the listeners more involved into the case to see it through.

Koenig uses a creates logos in when saying this. It's logic that if that phone booth was actually not there then it would be a very dumb mistake for the cops. This builds logos in Koenig by telling her audience that she is paying attention to the details and letting the audience know, so that the audience does not question her capabilities of evaluating the case. This makes the episode for the audience more enjoyable because they can just relax listen and not have to worry about errors.
