Current Affairs #1: A Refresher as Adnan Syed's Murder Conviction is Overturned

This week a Maryland judge overturned the conviction of Adnan Syed, who has been in jail for more than 20 years for murdering his ex-girlfriend Hae Min Lee. The case was made famous by the podcast Serial, and now a judge has said that the original prosecutors withheld information about two suspects who might have also committed the crime.

Current Affairs is a new LM feature that looks at current True Crime cases in the news.
