'''Re-watching 3x04 Birds of a Feather, I discovered that Jason may have knew Alison was alive the whole time and that it was Bethany in the grave. '''



It sounds crazy, but when he stormed into the restaurant and questions Mrs. Hastings about her defending Garrett, she said "Everyone deserves a competant legal defense." He then said "You sure that's the only reason?" And then he gave a side eye to Melissa who was standing next to Veronica.

It'd be simple to think that Jason said this because Garrett and Melissa may have been together before but I think it's more than that.

In 3x02 Blood Is the New Black, Garrett told Veronica something that convinced her to take his case. He knew something about the medical records of someone. I think he told Veronica that the girl in the grave wasn't Alison and that Melissa may have killed the girl in the grave since Jason thought he saw Melissa that night and they knew Melissa hated Alison. This could get Melissa in jail.

Remember when Garrett and Jenna were framing Jason for killing "Alison"? Episodes later, Garrett visited Jason and wanted to make sure their secret was stll being kept. I think Garrett and Jason were keeping the secret that they were both where Alison was buried and both believed Ali wasn't really dead and that Melissa may have killed her. If they had told the police what they know, all three of them would be prime suspects in "Alison's" murder.
