This page is an ongoing project to collect important documents about the case in one place. The collection begins with the transcripts of the trials of Elizabeth Haysom and Jens Soering, but will keep growing.

Soering/Haysom Trial Transcripts

This section contains links to searchable .pdf files of the entire trial transcripts of the trials of Elizabeth Haysom and Jens Söring and other important documents. I have pieced them together from various sources, to whom I’d like to express my thanks. Note that the transcript of Jens Soering’s trial contains full transcripts of all of his confessions to lawyers or detectives from the year 1986.

The files are of varying quality, but most are legible. They have been scanned with OCR and are searchable. Some of the files are very big. There are a few omissions here and there, but not many. If you notice something is missing and you can provide it, please let me know. That’s how I put these together in the first place.
