On January 13,1999 at 2:36 pm, a 17 year old teenager named Hae Min Lee went missing in Baltimore, Maryland. A month later her body was found in Leakin Park buried in a six inch grave. According to the autopsy report, Hae Min Lee died from strangulation. On February 28, 1999, her ex- boyfriend ,Adnan Syed (who was also 17 at the time), was arrested and later convicted for the murder and sentenced to life in prison. Jay Wilds ,a mutual friend of the suspect, states that Adnan showed him Hae’s body in the trunk of her car at Best Buy parking lot, and that he helped Adnan bury Hae. Adnan says that he didn't have anything to do with the murder and he says that Mr.Wilds story is false. After 16 years in prison Mr. Syed filed for an appeal to a new trial because he and others who've read over this case, felt as if he was not granted a fair trial because of newfound evidence(cell phone records, Jay’s inconsistencies, Jay’s consistences, police recordings, letters, timelines, DNA,the pinged cell phone towers, and specific locations) and major errors and mistakes that were made in the case. Adnan Syed was not granted a fair trial, but he is guilty for the murder of Hae Min Lee.
