A Blast from the Cast

“A Baltimore judge on Monday ordered the release of Adnan Syed after overturning Syed’s conviction for the 1999 murder of high school student Hae Min Lee — a case that was chronicled in the hit podcast Serial, a true-crime series that transfixed listeners and revolutionized the genre.”

+ Sarah Koenig, host of the podcast that popularized this case, is as surprised as you are. “I was shocked. I did not see this coming at all. One of the first things I did was call Adnan’s brother and then his mother — they told me they didn’t know either.” NYT: Adnan Syed, Freed.
