Syed’s case is a well-known one, having inspired the Serial podcast. The Case Against Adnan Syed, however, has been in the works since 2015. It’s a four-episode documentary HBO claims will thoroughly revisit the 1999 incident, encompassing “the events leading up to Hae Min Lee’s disappearance, from high school romance, forbidden love and cultural conflict, to the aftermath of her disappearance, the original police investigation and the present day, when Syed awaits a new trial.”
