BEDFORD COUNTY, Va. – After news broke that the two people responsible for the murder of a Bedford County couple in 1985 have been granted parole, there were mixed reactions. Jens Soering and Elizabeth Haysom, both convicted for the murder of Elizabeth’s parents, Derek and Nancy, were granted parole on Monday. A longtime supporter of Soering’s release is Albemarle County Sheriff, Chip Harding. He also questions whether Soering’s confession, which he later recanted, was true or not. “Currently, the DNA is indicating there are two unknown males leading in the crime scene that are not Jens Soering,” Harding said.
