In a legal tour de force, Baltimore State's Attorney Ivan Bates laid bare the fraud on the court perpetrated by Adnan Syed and his supporters in the failed motion to vacate his conviction produced by former State's Attorney Marylin Mosby. In 88 pages, Bates deconstructed the arguments for Syed's innocence, and by the time he was finished, there could be little doubt that Adnan Syed did, indeed, murder Hae Min Lee. Brett and Alice discuss the filing which exposed the lie of a carefully constructed innocence sham more than a decade in the making.

 Update: As expected, the judge did decide to allow Adnan Syed to remain free. He is still a convicted murderer.
