FRANKLIN COUNTY, Va.UPDATE

Read the update here.


ORIGINAL STORY

We’re one step closer to learning how long a man convicted of killing a Franklin County woman will spend behind bars.

Paul Jordan is set to appear in the Franklin County Circuit Court on Tuesday at 1 p.m., where a report will be reviewed to determine the length of his prison sentence.

Jordan was found guilty after a three-day-long trial in June in connection with the murder of his then-girlfriend, Heather Hodges, in 2012.

It was a conviction that brought closure to a family that had been searching for justice for several years.

This came a month after Hodges was declared dead by a Franklin County judge after being missing for more than a decade.

Her body still has never been found.
