Adnan Syed, whose murder case was chronicled in the "Serial" podcast in 2014, returned to a Baltimore courtroom as a judge considered whether to reduce his sentence under the Juvenile Restoration Act.

Baltimore prosecutors have announced their decision to withdraw a motion to vacate Adnan Syed's murder conviction even as they support his recent request for a sentence reduction.

Syed, whose case garnered international attention after the “Serial” podcast, has a hearing Wednesday seeking to reduce his sentence and allow him to remain free.
