Baltimore, MD – A Maryland appellate court has vacated the get-out-of-jail free pass that Baltimore City State’s Attorney Marilyn Mosby gave a convicted murderer last year, giving the victim’s family a chance to fight claims he was wrongly convicted.
The appellate court ruled 2-1 on March 28 that a lower court violated the rights of the victim’s brother by failing to adequately notify him of his right to attend a key hearing that resulted in the charges against the suspect, Adnan Syed, being vacated, CNN reported.
The case at the center of the decision involves the murder of 18-year-old Hae Min Lee, who was last seen alive at Woodlawn High School on Jan. 13, 1999, The Daily Record reported.
