"Maryland Supreme Court to Decide Adnan Syed's Fate in 'Serial' Case"

The Maryland Supreme Court is set to hear oral arguments in the Adnan Syed case, which gained widespread attention through the podcast "Serial." Syed spent 24 years fighting charges for the 1999 murder of his former girlfriend, Hae Min Lee. Last year, a judge vacated Syed's conviction, but it was reinstated by an appeals court in March. The Supreme Court will now decide whether to send Syed back to prison or throw out his conviction. A ruling is expected later this year.

Maryland Supreme Court to Review Adnan Syed's Conviction in Landmark Case

The Maryland Supreme Court has agreed to review the murder conviction of Adnan Syed, the subject of the popular podcast "Serial." Syed was convicted in 2000 for the killing of Hae Min Lee, but his conviction was vacated by a circuit court judge in September due to problems with evidence disclosure. However, an appellate court panel reinstated the conviction, citing violations of Lee's brother's rights during the hearing. The Supreme Court will hear arguments on October 5th and could potentially wipe away Syed's conviction.

Prosecutors said they found new suspects and unreliable evidence had been used at Syed’s trial.

Maryland Supreme Court Delays Adnan Syed's Murder Conviction Reinstatement Amid Appeal

The Maryland Supreme Court has temporarily halted the reinstatement of Adnan Syed's murder conviction as it considers whether to take up the case.

The case drew widespread attention when the podcast "Serial" investigated it. Syed's conviction was vacated in September 2020, but the Maryland Appellate Court reinstated it in March 2021. The legal wrangling continues, and Syed remains free for now.

Adnan Syed's Murder Conviction Reinstated by Maryland Appeals Court.

Adnan Syed, whose story was featured in the Serial podcast, has had his murder conviction reinstated by a Maryland appeals court panel. Syed had his conviction vacated in September after prosecutors failed to hand over evidence that could have affected the outcome of his case. However, the appeals court ruled that the lower court had violated state law by not giving the victim's family adequate notice of the hearing to vacate the conviction. A new hearing will now be held to vacate Syed's conviction.

Adnan Syed's Murder Conviction Reinstated by Maryland Appeals Court in 'Serial' Case.

Adnan Syed's murder conviction has been reinstated by a Maryland appeals court after a lower court violated the victim's family's right to attend a hearing on vacating the conviction. Syed, who was the subject of the "Serial" podcast, had his conviction tossed out by a circuit court and the Baltimore County state attorney's office dropped charges before he was set free last fall. The appellate court panel voted 2-1 to reinstate the conviction, and a new hearing has been ordered. Syed's attorney plans to appeal the decision to the state's highest court.
