Chip Harding

from Untold – A WTVR Podcast Hosted by Catie Beck

As one of Virginia’s most notorious crimes is receiving renewed attention, a retired lawman who did his own investigation of the case is speaking out. Chip Harding sat down with Catie Beck on the most recent episode of ‘Untold – A WTVR Podcast’ to discuss his thoughts on the Jens Soering case. Soering, a former UVA student, served decades in prison for the 1985 murders of Derek and Nancy Haysom, the parents of his then girlfriend, Elizabeth. The couple was brutally stabbed to death inside their home in Bedford County. Harding, then the sheriff of Albemarle County, made headlines in 2017, when he reviewed the case files at the request of one of Soering’s attorneys and came to the conclusion that the former UVA student was wrongly convicted.
