Adnan Syed’s conviction reinstated by Maryland Court of Appeals

Read the opinion again. One of the Court’s findings of fact that the crime took place before the 2:36 call. That agrees with what the prosecution said in it’s opening statement at the original trial. More importantly, it agrees with what the judge found upon originally overturning the conviction, which is binding on the Court of Appeals unless clearly erroneous. Regardless, she didn’t show up to pick up cousin at 3:30 and Asia had him in the library until at least 2:40. Unless Syed had rocket shoes he wasn’t going to catch, much less kill Lee in that time. It would have to be one in a million, I.e. reasonable doubt.
