The case rose to international fame after it was featured on the true crime podcast “Serial” in 2014. After spending two decades in prison, DNA testing proved Mr. Syed’s innocence, leading Baltimore prosecutors to release him and place him on home detention with GPS location monitoring. A reinvestigation of the case has also revealed evidence regarding two other possible suspects as the killers of Ms. Lee. |
