An appellate court reinstated the murder conviction of Adnan Syed after charges were dropped last year against the subject of the popular podcast 'Serial'
A Maryland appellate court has reinstated the conviction of Adnan Syed, the man who spent over two decades behind bars for the 1999 killing of his ex-girlfriend Hae Min Lee and whose murder case was featured in the landmark podcast “Serial.” The appellate court said the lower court had violated the rights of the victim’s brother, Young Lee, to attend a key hearing.
“Because the circuit court violated Mr. Lee’s right to notice of, and his right to attend, the hearing on the State’s motion to vacate… this Court has the power and obligation to remedy those violations, as long we can do so without violating Mr. Syed’s right to be free from double jeopardy,” the court’s opinion said. This is a developing story and will be updated.
