"This is not a podcast for me. This is real life," a betrayed Young Lee told the court as another twist into the case of his 18-year-old sister's murder unfolds after more than 20 years. He is the brother of Hae Min Lee, who was strangled and found buried in a Baltimore park in February 1999.
Her ex-boyfriend Adnan Syed, who was 17 when he was charged, was blamed for the killing and was sentenced to life. But after more than two decades behind bars and a hit podcast series - Serial - listened to by millions across the globe later, the 41-year-old was freed on Monday by Circuit Court Judge Melissa Phinn, who ordered his conviction to be vacated.
Judge Phinn ruled that the state violated its legal obligation to share exculpatory evidence with Mr Syed's defence.
