A little over a week ago, a mysterious post cropped up on the still-active Serial subreddit. “Announcement,” it read. “I am releasing all the burial photos on October 13.” The user claimed to have obtained grisly evidence photos that would show the body of Hae Min Lee, the victim in the case that the Serial podcast covered so grippingly last year.

The post, which was quickly deleted by community moderators, could have been made by a troll or a sock puppet. Possibly whoever wrote it never had the pictures at all. But it was just another day in the extensive, labyrinthine post-Serial obsessive universe online, still a surprisingly active and raucous place where people can argue and collaborate with strangers who are still stuck on the story.
It’s been a year since the podcast debuted and became an international obsession. But on Reddit, Facebook and several podcasts, communities of people are still dedicated to getting to the bottom of the story of its first season: the case against Adnan Syed, who was convicted in 2000 of the murder of Lee. The prosecution had successfully argued that Syed killed Lee, a former girlfriend, in a fit of rage. For years, the case had lain dormant. Then, Rabia Chaudry, a family friend to the Syeds, brought it to Sarah Koenig. The rest was viral history.
Adnan Syed: document casts doubt on case against Serial convict, lawyer says
By the time Koenig signed off the podcast last year, she and the Serial team had managed to poke serious holes in the prosecution’s theory of the case. She didn’t fully resolve the matter of Syed’s guilt or innocence, though she said she didn’t think she would have convicted him. Everything the Serial team knew about the crime, she said, amounted to a “beginning”. They didn’t get the full story of what had happened to Hae Min Lee.
The Serial team seems to have been content to leave it there. A request for comment from the Serial team about whether they considered themselves to still be involved in Syed’s story had not been returned at press time. But they have, in recent weeks, announced a number of new Serial projects not focused on Syed’s case, including a television show and a possible second season topic in the case of Bowe Bergdahl.
Chaudry, the woman who brought the story to Koenig, is disappointed that the Serial team appears to have lost interest. She told the Guardian that in both her and Syed’s most recent conversations with Koenig, she had said that she wasn’t really paying attention to any new developments in Syed’s case.
“I don’t know how to take it,” Chaudry said. “There are a number of ways you can read into that, none of them good.”
In Koenig’s absence, Chaudry has taken up the torch of dissecting the case via a Serial spin-off podcast she co-hosts, Undisclosed: The State Versus Adnan Syed.
Chaudry’s co-hosts are a law professor named Colin Miller and an attorney named Susan Simpson. Miller and Simpson started out as casual listeners of the podcast. But participating in the varied online discussions on forums like Reddit and their own personal blogs, they gradually became leading investigative figures.
While Miller and Simpson haven’t themselves spoken to Syed, they both consider themselves in some way advocates for his innocence. “It’s hard not to become invested in a case,” Miller said by email.
“With a criminal defendant, the difficulty is that you almost never know whether they are actually innocent or guilty. That said, I am convinced at this point that there was serious legal injustice that resulted in a teenager being given a life sentence.”

The audience for Undisclosed, while not Serial-sized, is impressive. According to AudioBoom, the podcast’s 11 episodes have been listened to 37m times. “It’s way more than we expected,” Chaudry said. “I expected maybe 100,000 per episode. Especially because we’re not as easy to consume as Serial.”
