The U.S. Supreme Court has denied "Serial" podcast subject Adnan Syed's plea for a new trial, but lawyers for the man convicted of killing his high school girlfriend say they will keep fighting.
The Maryland man was granted a new trial in 2016, but the state's highest court later reinstated his conviction.
Syed's team then took its fight to the nation's high court, where it hit another roadblock.
Syed's case gained national attention as the first case explored by the popular "Serial" podcast and a subsequent HBO documentary series titled "The Case Against Adnan Syed."
