The Soering System

#2 The Confessions


Listen Later

It’s June 1986 – Jens Söring and Elizabeth Haysom are in police custody in London. They’ve been arrested on suspicion of check fraud – a crime they have confessed to. Meanwhile, while inspecting their belongings, detective Terry Wright has come across a sort of travelog, which he begins to read. Wright seems to be on the right track and contacts detective Ricky Gardner in the US. Jens Söring and, later, his supporters, raise serious allegations against the team of investigators in connection with his confessions. They claim Söring was denied legal counsel and was held “incommunicado” – meaning he was kept in solitary confinement and unable to contact a lawyer. But is there any truth to these accusations?
