Was he a cold-blooded killer, or the victim of a miscarriage of justice? A naive, lovestruck nerd, or a calculating double murderer?

Horrific crimes are committed every day, unfortunately, but only a few remain in the public eye for decades afterwards. Hardly any case has polarized the public as much over the last 38 years as that of the German diplomat's son Jens Soering.

In this podcast series, hosts Daniela Hillers and Ralph Guise-Ruebe critically examine a homicide case from the 1980s: the murders of Derek and Nancy Haysom in Virginia, a crime that has come to be known as the Jens Soering case.

Daniela Hillers is an author and journalist who has written widely on the German terrorist group RAF.

Ralph Guise-Ruebe is the Judge and President of the Hannover Regional Court in Germany.

Would Jens Soering still be indicted and convicted today, based on the evidence available now? Was the trial in 1990 conducted according to the principles of due process?

In addition to Jens Soering himself, a total of 14 experts on the case — including bestselling author John Grisham, the original lead detective Chuck Reid as well as a former friend and fellow inmate of Elizabeth Haysom‘s — all have their say, providing listeners their in-depth insider knowledge.

What if the real story was completely different than the verdict at trial?

“The Jens Soering Case — A New Verdict”

Due to the internationality of the case, the original voices of Daniela and Ralph were replaced by English AI voices, so that English-speaking listeners can also listen to the podcast. In episode 10, however, you will hear the original voices of the two hosts.

Do you want to know more about the Jens Söring case? In his exclusive report, investigator Chuck Reid describes his perspective on things and goes into detail with observations and evidence that were not even used in the trial at the time.
