UK - Sarah Everard, 33, London, Clapham Common, 3 March 2021 MEDIA THREAD *NO DISCUSSION*

[Cherwell]

EXCLUSIVE:
Sarah Everard: Met Police faces fresh cover-up claims over killer PC Wayne Couzens
No information was sent to the media about a police misconduct hearing into the murderer of Sarah Everard, PC Wayne Couzens, sparking fresh 'cover-up' claims

Met Police face fresh cover-up claims over Sarah Everard killer PC Wayne Couzens

It's because the criminal proceedings have not yet been concluded. It says so in the article, so I don't know why the media should be making a thing out of it. Once the investigations have been completed, and he's been sentenced, it can all be reported.

This was one of the theories mentioned often by those on the board, so sad and poor Sarah.

BBC article

Sarah Everard murder: Wayne Couzens falsely arrested and handcuffed victim

The article includes more information emerging, including that her "arrest" was seen by passers by, but they had no reason at the time to think it was anything but an arrest.

The article has further information on his movements after tha kidnap, and how he attempted to dispose of the body

"The prosecutor said her murder was reported on social media as #shewasonlywalkinghome but the more appropriate five words to describe what Couzens did were "deception, kidnap, rape, strangulation and fire""

Edited to add - the article is reporting day 1 of a 2-day sentencing hearing. Sentence is expected to be handed down tomorrow, and the judge is considering a whole life tariff

Rest in peace Sarah, the facts of this case are horrifying, so much trauma caused to all. Sarah, You are remembered as a person who was human, trusted those we are led to believe are people who will help us, or are abiding by the law, your life was robbed by a monster but your memory is one that will change the future.

This article highlights that WC retraced and revisited his crime scenes with his family, to the woods and to the service station. Monsterous to put that onto his family and children.

This is the most detailed account of today's hearing that I have found

Wayne Couzens sentencing live: 'Haunted and heartbroken' mother of Sarah Everard addresses killer

It is harrowing reading, especially the victim impact statements from her family

 

[CuriousObserver1]

Having followed the case on WS at the time, it is shocking to see the CCTV in the DM article and hear what actually happened...much of which came up in those earlier threads as to what could have happened...utterly heartbreaking. Can see now how the police tracked him so quickly as it is clearly hear standing with him by the car - it was not even back into the flats/or behind the trees - he was so brazened. Her mum says every night around the time it happens she silently screams "Run Sarah run" - and from the CCTV can see she would have had a chance, but obviously believed he was arresting her legitimately

“Spent the last couple of weeks explaining that dealing with horrors like Bellfield and Grant still never pierced my professionalism to drive me to hatred. Step forward Wayne Couzens, I never met you but you have achieved what even they could not.”

Last night it was reported that 26 Met Police colleagues of Couzens have been convicted of sex crimes, including rape and possessing indecent images of children, since 2016.

Two of the officers were jailed in April, a month after Sarah Everard was raped and murdered by Couzens in Kent.

Additionally, five Met officers carried out sex attacks while on duty since 2010 and one was recruited last year despite a conviction for indecent exposure.
