Prosecutors dropped charges against Adnan Syed on Tuesday in the 1999 killing of Hae Min Lee — a case that was chronicled in the hit podcast “Serial” — after additional DNA testing further undermined his conviction, his lawyer said.
Emily Witty, a spokeswoman for the city of Baltimore’s state’s attorney’s office, said in an email that her office had dropped its case against Syed and would release further details about its decision later Tuesday.
The state’s attorney’s office announced it would not prosecute the case further based on DNA testing results that excluded Syed, the Maryland Office of the Public Defender said in a statement. The Circuit Court dropped the charges Tuesday, resulting in the dismissal of the criminal case, according to the public defender’s office.

Prosecutors have officially dropped all charges against Adnan Syed, the Baltimore man made famous after being featured in the first season of popular podcast “Serial.”
The decision comes three weeks after Syed — who was convicted of murdering his ex-girlfriend Hae Min Lee in 2000 — had his murder conviction overturned by Judge Melissa Phinn of Baltimore City Circuit Court. In her ruling, which came after prosecutors filed a motion to vacate the conviction, Phinn said the decision came after she determined that the prosecutors on the initial trial failed to turn in evidence to the court that pointed to two additional suspects and would have significantly helped Syed’s case.
Immediately following the ruling, Syed was released from prison after serving 23 years, since he was 18. Although prosecutors recommended that Syed be given a new trial in their initial motion, the dropping of charges ensures that Syed will not undergo another trial.

Adnan Syed was exonerated Tuesday in the 1999 killing of Hae Min Lee. Prosecutors dropped the murder charges in a case that gave rise to the “Serial” podcast and a 2019 HBO docuseries after a new round of DNA testing excluded his involvement in the murder case.
Syed was released from prison in September after serving more than two decades behind bars when a Baltimore’s Circuit Court Judge Melissa Phinn vacated his conviction.
Per a press release from the Maryland Office of the Public Defender, the charges against Syed being dropped will result in the dismissal of the criminal case for which he was incarcerated for 23 years. The release also noted that the state’s attorney would not further prosecute Syed in this murder trial following the results of new DNA testing from evidence found at the scene.

Adnan Syed, who became the subject of the hit 2014 podcast “Serial,” was freed by a Baltimore court after a judge vacated his murder conviction Monday.
Syed was convicted for the 1999 murder of ex-girlfriend Hae Min Lee, but a new investigation found that police withheld information, including the existence of two additional suspects, from Syed’s lawyers.
As prosecutors requested last week, Circuit Court Judge Melissa Phinn ordered that Syed’s conviction be vacated. She approved his release: The now 41-year-old had been in prison more more than 20 years.

According to the Associated Press, Phinn ruled that the state violated its legal obligation to share exculpatory evidence with Syed’s defense. She ordered him released from custody and placed on home detention with Gps location monitoring.

Update, with video Adnan Syed, whose prosecution in the 1999 killing of his high school girlfriend Hae Min Lee was examined in minute detail in the massively popular 2014 season of the hit podcast Serial, will be released from prison after 23 years, with a Maryland judge today overturning his murder conviction.
The ruling came after a hearing today before Baltimore Circuit Judge Melissa Phinn. State prosecutors filed a motion last week asking the court to vacate Syed’s 2000 murder conviction, explaining that a year-long investigation conducted with Syed’s defense team uncovered new information “concerning the possible involvement of two alternative suspects,” and, additionally, that the legal parties “have identified significant reliability issues regarding the most critical pieces of evidence at trial.”
Syed, 41, has been behind bars for 23 years, maintaining his innocence throughout.
We did it.
