Adnan's Story [electronic resource] : The Truth

Chaudry, Rabia2016
eAudioBook
Sixteen years ago, Adnan Syed was sentenced to life plus 30 years for the murder of his ex-girlfriend Hae Min Lee, a high-school senior in Baltimore. From the moment of his arrest, Syed has consistently maintained his innocence. By 2013, however, after almost all appeals had been exhausted, things looked bleak. That’s when Rabia Chaudry, a family friend, contacted Sarah Koenig. Koenig’s investigation turned into the international phenomenon Serial.Adnan’s Story re-examines the investigation that led to Adnan Syed’s arrest, shares his life in prison, covers new evidence and reviews the recent court successes – including a ruling by a Maryland judge to reopen the case. Woven with personal reflections from Adnan himself, including never-before-seen letters he penned from prison, the book offers new insight into the story that captivated the imaginations of millions. What has grabbed the public's attention about Adnan’s story are the layers of contradictions, fascinating characters and fog of ambiguity around what really happened on that day in 1999. But this is not just a personal story; it is the story of a thoroughly broken system and how the power of the media and the public can bring about justice for those who need it.
