- Former police officer Wayne Couzens has already pleaded guilty to the rape and murder of 33-year-old Sarah Everard. (Subscribe: bit.ly/C4_News_Subscribe)
But as his sentencing hearing began today, shocking details emerged of how he was able to abduct her by handcuffing and falsely arresting her in plain view of other members of the public.
Her parents came to court today to face her killer and voice the anger and anguish that her death has caused Sarah's family and friends, but also to share their treasured memories of their daughter.

The blatant way she was stopped, with his car pulled up on the pavement - I'm willing to bet, that that wasn't the first time he'd abducted someone like that and that his attacks had become increasingly violent and ultimately, deadly.
He's a police officer enforcing covid restrictions, of course it's not the first...
Agree but we’ve heard nothing about other crimes?
that is what is really scary.
Maybe, although he didn’t seem very good at it. He left an easy to follow trail of clues.
@@CT-vm4gf I agree with you on this one. He thought carefully about going on the prowl on a rental car but then transferred the victim into his own car and didn't bother to clean it thoroughly. So some aspects of it he planned, some he didn't.
But poor sarah was pulled over by a “policeman” how are we supposed to protect ourselves from that??
#DefundThePolice
I don't know how they can fix this situation now

'But poor Sarah was pulled over by a “policeman” how are we supposed to protect ourselves from that??'
Exactly. This is how black and brown people have been living forever.
RIP Sarah.
There is no way we can protect ourselves from that 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔
Police officers should hand in their warrant card/badge when they go off duty
Yes a good idea
YES!
Absolutely.
Well said and have a female officer with them and no more stop and search
Yes!!!
Poor girl. Imagine the moment she realised she was tricked into being arrest and was about to die. The helplessness and fear. Handcuffed. There needs to be a sentencing like no other. Not multiple life sentences or death. I'm talking torture. Endless torture, make him wish he never lay eyes on her.
Two wrongs don't make a right. I suspect he'll be generously treated by his fellow inmates anyway
Imagine what serial killers, psychopaths out there watching this case must be thinking to themselves: Why not join the police service to provide a cover for my evil undertakings?
James Bagshaw It dosent matter if you don’t think it’s right. It’s amazing justice.
@@karllarsen8797 Well, it wasn't much of a cover. Easier for them to pretend to be police officers, a tactic which many psychopaths and serial killers have used in the past.
@Adam easy Adam, you'll have us back in the dark ages mate.
I'm not sure of she was his only victim. This was too bold for a first timer.
I bet, it wasn’t……
with a nickname like the r*pist, im sure shes one of many unfortunately
@@13104180 you mean he's acted before?
Wait Laila! It will come out!
Honestly, this was not his first time. The audacity of him! RIP SARAH! 🕊
He honestly seems too stupid to have done this before. He left such a clear trail of evidence leading back to him, I hope it means it was his first and last time.
What a evil, evil, evil disgusting man. I feel for her family and can only imagine the pain and heartbreak they must be feeling everyday. Sarah must have been soooo scared, truly heartbreaking
And some politicians want to give more powers to some people like these. And police avoiding accountability acting like angels because of their badge uniform, suddenly now saying, he wasn't one of us.
@@zainzoala1083 surely you’re not comparing normal police officers to this scumbag?
This is so hard to watch. Wayne Couzens does not deserve to live.
Romulan Warbird he doesn't
At least spell the poor girls name correct.
He was a known flasher, and his colleagues thought it was hilarious. They should all be sacked, and lose their pensions. By their inaction, they are complicit. How many other women has he murdered?
He was literally nicknamed "the rapist" by his fellow policemen. I don't believe for a second that they didn't know what he was up to.
Just women lol he probs killed some random guy
& His other nick name was Rapist 🥴😳
i agree. officers should never call anyone a rapist as a joke. they should know better.
We should bring in the death penalty for heinous crimes like this
Well said
If that happens killing offences will be reduced by 99%. Because the most VALUABLE thing in my life is my own life.
I unequivocally am against the death penalty even though the hate I have for this man is visceral. He will have a horrendous time in prison...I hope every day, to the point he wishes for the death penalty.
I thought the same
I think the death penalty should come back to the uk again far to many people girls children women and some men have died far to soon and too young the killings in plymouth the killings of women and children in killamarsh Sheffield this year the killing of a woman in louth and her child when will this stop when will serious action be taken for preditors and for dangerous people to know what they do they will spend life time in prison for their crimes we must put a stop to the killings of innocent all innocent people
Hard to grasp how evil this beast is. The banality of how he behaved afterwards - buying hot chocolate and phoning a vet.
'Fatalplus'
God, i can only imagine how awful that witness must feel realising they were the last to see her alive...I hope they don't blame themselves for her passing. There is nothing Sarah or anyone could have done to prevent this. We are told to comply with the law and yet those in power abuse this for their own gain. So, so vile.
Why on earth would the witnesses blame themselves for her death???
@@MargaritaMagdalena Some people who were witnesses to a crime before it happened have said they feel guilty for not intervening even though they probably couldn't have prevented it happening
@@ellielouise9625 Source?
I think about this a lot - in many cases like this, there were times when friends must feel that if they hadn’t done a particular thing, their friend would still be alive! Take Milly Dowler’s case for example - her friend Danielle encouraged her to get off the train a stop early to get chips at the station cafe. 20 mins or so later, she started walking home from the station and was abducted on that walk. Although it was absolutely NOT Danielle’s fault what went on to happen, she must beat herself up that she suggested Milly joined her. If she hadn’t, Milly would have stayed on the train and got home safely! With James Bulger, all the people who stopped the boys who abducted him to ask what they were doing must beat themselves up too! There must be so many ‘what ifs’ to situations like this - it’s tragic. Sarah was such a beautiful young lady, and for this man to have done what he did to her, he deserves to rot in jail!
@@MargaritaMagdalena It's a very well known psych phenomena.
No woman would have had any chance in that situation. It could have been any of us. Horrific. Poor girl. What a fate 😔

@@kukulroukul4698 ce comentariu rasist de rahat
mmmh sorry but not really... not All women are so naive, I wouldn't have fallen for that, firstly because I would've never violated lockdown rules, but even if that was the case, I know a single policeman can't arrest someone without clear proofs, the max they could do was fine me, but still, he needed to catch me in the act, you can't arrest someone only because of suppositions , hence I would've never allowed to be arrested and handcuffed, despite what he might've said to me, because I know the law and I know my rights. That should be a teaching for everyone: read the newspapers, inform yourself and be aware of what happens around you, so that it will be more difficult for someone to fool you.
@@theCatsitter878 are you blaming Sarah, for her own horrific murder? Are you just saying, your smarter than everybody else😩
@@theCatsitter878 you sound soo naïve only by saying what you said
Knowing you're going to die and not being able to do anything about it while wanting your family has to be the worst feeling imaginable.I hope the inmates get him and show no mercy with him.

She's like a little baby bird with a broken wing. Look at her precious face. She would have been no match for that psychopath. It's unbelievable.
What a profoundly heartfelt heartbreaking statement. You’ve made me cry.Poor poor child. May she rest in eternal peace🙏

I think I'd be picking through that plot of land he owns, there's probably human remains from unknown victims on it.
Oh Jesus and he called about his dog - sick man - and violence within the police force abuse unreported will definitely roll out to the public being targeted from such predators
I wish they would check because going by how chilled he was afterwards mark my words there's definitely more victims!!
my concern is with his cheery phone call to the vet as veterinary euthanasia drugs can be used in smaller measures as an incapacitating sedative. some yarn about his dogs 'issues'! was this a repeat prescription?
@@Adelaide_Mackenzie he called his vet asking for tranquilizers " for his dog". Most likely he couldnt sleep or live with what he did and actually wanted the tranq's for himself, but as an armed copper couldnt get them for himself from a GP without his superiors being aware.

You can't. However having one gives him the power!
Absolutely
He’s a disgrace to humanity.
@@pithikoulis If police decide to arrest you, they can.
@@pithikoulis You are dealing with police. If you disagree and make a scene, you are resisting arrest, and beatings, tasers and various strangle holds may follow. The way things stand, there is little you can do. Once Sarah was talking to this cop, she was doomed.
100% agree about the violent porn issue. It's the elephant in the room and the shame of our digital age that no one wants to address. I literally cannot fathom the disturbing levels of contradiction of our society. The message of 'don't harm women' is just a tiny little bit undermined by the abundance of sickening content out there depicting horrific violence against women and girls in porn. No one can honestly believe that young boys consuming that content every day aren't deeply impacted and desensitised. Just further evidence of our exploitative, capitalistic culture valuing profit over morals.
Was violent porn around in the 70s and 80s when serial killers were Gacy, dahmer, bundy, etc were all running around? Some people are just evil. The world is a spectrum. Porn or no porn there will always be people that do this.
@@Klash716 No one saying that without violent porn, there won’t be any attacks on women. But that violent porn aggravates the situation.
@@sarahkareem1251 That's a hunk of BS. Sounds like those crazy parents who say video games are causing shootings. It's simply not true. I've seen some of the most violent movies, pornographic content and so forth, that doesn't skew my ability to know right from wrong. The OP is the type of person to blame "evil capitalism", then congratulate girls on their success on OnlyFans. She's just an anti-Capitalist finding an excuse to hate on capitalism. Murder is at an all-time low despite violent porn, movies and video games being more widely available than ever before. I choose to follow data and evidence, not mindless comments like the one you and OP posted. It's a shame so many people agree with it.
Women love these violent acts though. Why do you think women flocked in their droves to watch fifty shades of grey??? You should check what kind of porn you daughter watches, it would blow your mind.
@@sarahkareem1251 women are the ones who have massive kinks. Look at the fifty shades of grey series, women were obsessed with it. You have obviously never seen some girls internet history, some of the stuff they watch is well, eye opening to say the least.
Bad news: We don't have the death penalty, Good news: if he's ever out of solitary, as a policeman and woman murderer, he will have a life expectancy of about 4 seconds.
Surprisingly, rapists and women murderers can live a whole lifetime in jail.the reason being is they’re separated from general population and put into pc,with others who are similar to them🤷🏻♀️
Nothin is going to happen for him in prison. It's probably a group of same minded people like him, other Police/pedophiles/rapists to joke around with. Also he gets 3 meals per day, a shower, some ps5 time, 1 hour outside and no more 29k debt to re-pay. Also probably he gets reduced jail time in the end. Easy life for Wayne.
I find it naive to think that way. It's popular belief that rapists or pedophiles are killed in prison. But prisons are filled with them.
@@edgaras6796 No whole life tariff is set, no - one has successfully appealed one yet. You're right though, probably nothing will happen to him, I mean Peter Sutcliffe got his eye gouged out with a broken coffee jar but we can hope.
@@ritarosa6824 No, you're right, their protected forever with our money.
Some of the most frightening people I've met in life have been professional people. Because many of them have big egos, a lot of confidence and think they can do what they like.
Very true I agree
RIP Sarah 🕊 I hope the fact he can't harm another woman ever again and that he'll never be released from prison will be some comfort to her family.
He can do it to guys you know
@@alecbaldwin2790 he may be bisxual u have a point
Not to worry, we're importing 50x more people from the Middle-East to fill this monster's role.
@@alecbaldwin2790 they'll keep him in solitary for a while for being an ex cop.
No lone policeman, undercover or not, should ever be allowed to arrest a woman.
No offense, but that's a pretty stupid comment
If a lone policeman had been the first to find Joanna Dennehy, what should he have done? If she'd have run off had he not arrested her there & then?
@David Z2 Call for back up if he is alone.
Are men never victims?
@@GaslightingIsEvil In that circumstance, he should have let JD stay free?
Probably not the first time he's done it. There are people predetermined to be criminals. They blend in society and some even hold positions of power. Vigilance and iron clad law enforcement must be done.
I think they should investigate if he is a serial killer because in his line of profession I find it hard to believe he hasn't used it to stop women before.
@@GaslightingIsEvil I agree with you. When you try to press charges against men, it's never a big deal for the police. I didn't knew he had the nickname rapist. Women staff from a restaurant pressed charges against him 3 days before he killed Sarah. They should have taken his gun and suspend him during an investigation. But police never finds it relevant until something horrific is done. They'll say oh it was just that or it is not that serious. Normal men don't show that kind of behaviour. We need more justice for Sarah. He is a predator. But the system failed her.
Never go in an unmarked car. Call the police and give badge number and name and ask them to send a marked car.
Don’t go out risking people’s lives during lockdown. Simple
@@lem7881what a ridiculous thing to say. If we didn't have those useless rules in the first place this might not have happened
My heart sinks when I think of her being handcuffed and strangled, helpless, what a monster.
The fact that his nickname was the rapist is sickening.
What is so horribly eerie is how good Couzens seemed to be at the pretense of being a normal human being. Nothing that really points to the deranged psychopathy that lives inside him until he acts on it. That's what absolutely terrifies me.
These types are masters of appearing to be normal.
Nothing but the numerous accusations made of exposing himself in public......or the fact his own colleagues identified him as having an addiction to violent pornography...... Unfortunately I would have to disagree with you here as there were without doubt signs shown that should have been further investigated however as so often happens when dealing with accusations made against a member of the police force they seem to find a way of being overlooked or ignored ! Only after such terrible crimes such as this are uncovered do these things miraculously come back to light..........too little too late
Yes it's really scary and frightening I do not like going out after dark at all in fact I rarely do now I rather be at home with doors locked curtain closed it's scary how things change and how we put the trust in police I no longer trust the police or any one in that matter
@@robertparry9280 yes it is but he could gone on to kill more women girls who knows if he was targeting certain people or just choosing them randomly there could have been another serial killer in the uk if he wasnt caught he abused his power and trust. I'm now more wary of police
Nothing normal about your nickname being the Rapist . This guy was on the radar for being a weirdo for a long time but the police did sod all about it . Rest in peace Sarah .
Heartbreaking, words are not enough!🥺
It's a bunch of lies.
@@LiquifiedReality what do you mean ?
There was nothing she could have done and this is a fear every woman has. She was just trying to go home.

@@nastradamus1780 shut up. We as men are not going to be targeted like Sarah was. Have a heart and some sympathy for the poor girl.

@@chicken-wuss men do not get murdered?
@@chicken-wuss or wrongfully arrested you shmuck!
He must not be overtly protected in prison. He must spend every minute feeling fear from other inmates
That's why 2 Supervisors must attend during arrest of any crime, including if it's undercover police.
More legal protection for everyone, Specially our sisters.
I'm not sure this is logistically possible
That would be very expensive maybe everytime they arrest some one they have to video call the police station would make more sense.
@@jamesflaherty59 that's how it's usually done.
You’re living in a fantasy land
@@judgemental4442 I don’t know about two supervisors but I think police should work exclusively in pairs or more.
My 25 year old daughter asked me “ if a police officer arrested me and asked to get on his car, How could I do? I can’t say no… “ We just gasped… Sarah didn’t have any chance from begging..Poor girl… so sad… I only could tell to my daughter , “ even police officer, don’t trust him”
Actually you can, sit on the floor and refuse to move until more turn up in a fully marked vehicle and request they activate their body camera right away.
Only enter fully marked car only, and you only have to stop for a marked car which indicated you to pull over. The entire problem here was the guy really was an active police officer.
Good question. As the law stands, police can force you into the car one way or another - beating, taser, strangle holds, etc. The law needs to be changed so that police are not allowed to do what Sarah's killer could.
Also, read Leon's comment, although such behaviour might attract a beating.
I would say there are almost no male police officers who would feel comfortable arresting and taking a lone female or child prisoner to a police station alone. Simply because of the risk of allegations against them.
We have to tell our daughters not to trust per sae I was brought up not trusting law enforcers full stop. I was never fed the narrative of “they’re here to help” as a child and I am so very grateful for my upbringing because of instances like this.
@@candyman5912 Exactly. That is why police should wait for a second person (chaparone), prior to moving the suspect from the apprehension point.
I understand that police bosses are now insisting that police, especially undercover, are always in pairs. I think that is probably an overreaction. It is good enough to inform the public that no one will be moved without a second person present.
What different could she have done? As soon as he stopped her, she had to comply with his orders. Otherwise she would have been charged with resisting arrest. Maybe the law needs to be changed that if someone feels threatened then that person can request a supervisor or another police office to come to the scene
There is nothing Sarah Everad could have done to save herself from that murderer. That’s why people need to stop telling women to be careful and start telling men not to murder.
@@ashleynunn1701 I don't think that's going to stop men that have no conciences,We women need to be proactive because, reality is we live in a world with evil people in it.
true no talking nothing could stop this,,if a cop puts me into handcuffs im under arest and at his mercy
@@ashleynunn1701 that literally doesn’t work. Try telling a psychopath with a hatred for women and a compulsion to murder to not do it. Think it through.
@@ashleynunn1701 maybe if I'm out and frightened of a man I should politely tell him it is against the law to murder ?
Thank you . I never thought of doing that
In every corner of our society there are always evil roaming around pretending they can escape it.
She listened to all of the “rules”
No revealing clothes
Wasn’t out late
And still her life was taken buy someone we were taught to trust.
It’s not fair.
Wasn’t out late? She shouldn’t have been out at all, we were in the middle of lockdown, with people dying of covid all over London. If she’d stayed at home like she was supposed to she’d still be alive.
@@lem7881 easy for you to say. What if she was walking back home from her shift as an essential worker? She was terribly unlucky, wrong place at the wrong time
@@lem7881what a despicable comment. Shame on you.
@@lem7881 We, as humans, as a survival mechanism, always look at what the victim did “wrong” in the order to create a false sense of safety and to detach from these heinous crimes, saying “it would never happen to me”. When in actuality it can happen to anyone anytime and it’s a shame that people such as you, instead of commenting about the heinous crime, an officer, who is vetted and supposed to keep everyone safe, you blamed the victim. We need to stop victim blaming, it’s enabling acts such as his and it’s a disgusting thing to do in the name of someone who lose their life in such a horrible way.
I can only hope he gets a nice welcoming, when he gets to the big house.
May you rest in peace beautiful, this whole situation is truly awful, may your legacy be change xx
Jo Cox too will always be remembered
I said from day one the only way that depraved former officer could get Sarah was to abuse his position , and that turned out to be exactly how he pulled off this horrible tragic incident , I could never trust the police ever again, any little respect I had for that institution is gone ,
Speaking as former security officer, it has to be the most heinous abuse of position , to protect and serve smh
To Sarah’s family and friends I am so sorry for your great loss ,
May he rot .
You are right Maggie. I try to be unbiased in life, but now I see the police in a very different light. I now look at them with disdain. This case has helped to strip them of any credibility they had left and I do feel sorry for all of them in the service who are normal and genuinely trying to do good.
@@debsn7772 without a doubt there are some good officers but Jesus how can we know who is who ?
The cops in the USA are evil as well. They beat and rape women every day. They used to appropriately call them “Pigs” in the 1960’s. I think we should resume that terminology.
@@maggieedwards3951 Not true really. Most of them are not good.
Sarah Everard has only herself to blame.
There's needs to be more police under scrutiny - there's far too few convictions for police and they're just as much a set of lunatics as every other section of society. They're human and need treating as such, not protected.
Yes, there are too few convictions. There is also too much acceptance of misogyny in youth culture.
@@blueotter5990 youth culture is a product of adult advertising and adult culture. This bloke was in his 40s...
@@blueotter5990 How is that relevant to this case? He's in his late 40s.
You obviously don't know anyone that actually works in the police...they are constantly under scrutiny, everything they do in their job on a daily basis is assessed by higher ups, you need to document incidents and reports with extreme detail, e.g. if you use pepper spray, you need to give a full breakdown of why you used it and explain in detail why you used the amount you did. Police officers also have to go to court regularly where they are further scrutinied. The list goes on, don't think they are in the job and are free to roam and do what they please, they are out on the streets in the public eye and every action being judged daily. I don't envy anyone in the job.
There is. But white officers seem to escape this.
Next time an officer pulls you over call 999 to check the validity of whoever is stopping you.provide the badge number and check that the officer is on duty at the time of stopping you to question you.
There was a time when the sight of a policeman on the streets of the UK would have been a comforting and reassuring sight. Unfortunately, and sadly, it is fast becoming one that is extremely disconcerting.
Anything less than a full life sentence, without the possibility of parole, is, surely, unthinkable.
Its been disconcerting for a significant number for a while... Tis only as a result of recent events that more of the general former trusting joes have come to realise whats crackin.
True. I've always loved British police because they're so polite and reassuring. But after Sarah Edvard's death, I try to avoid the police. I know- not all of them are bad, but I can just tell there are more of them like Wayne
Absolutely heartbreaking, a vile man. Some people are so cruel.
The biggest issue here that they ALL seem to be completely avoiding, are males in a position of authority should never be allowed (even by law) to detain and then hold a woman in any way shape or form. A woman should always be present.
Am I to assume then that pursuit of equality throughout our society is no longer our goal ? To restrict anyone's ability to carry out a task like for in this case making an arrest based entirely on a person's gender is in my opinion a very dangerous position ! Are we then going to find that other social groups, minorities or individuals demand the same level of protection be given to their respective groups ? A white officer should not be able to detain a black person ? A heterosexual not to detain anyone of a different sexual orientation ? .........I was under the impression that we should all treat eachother as individuals and not define others by their gender, sexuality, race or religion ????
@@robertparry9280 There's clearly a distinction between men and women that needs to be acknowledged. It's true that gender politics and race issues muddy the waters quite a bit. Treating each other as 'individuals' is a joke. That's never been the case, ever. Even if on paper this has been the way of things. You talk like I've sugested something hugely unreasonable. Not allowing a man in a position of authority to hold a lone female seems like common sense to me. Would you not feel this way if Sarah Everard was a close relative, or are you happy that the circumstances in which this was allowed to happen do not need changing in any way?
Unfortunately, we’ve seen cases in the past where women are complicit in helping the man kidnap/rape etc
Definitely would reduce the chances but not fool proof at all
Hmmm…
I say have two officers present.
Record everything.
Let the accused call 911 upon request and verify the police officer is who the say they are and make the officer declare which police station they will take the accused too.
Problem solved.
Tragic I dont understand why someome could do such evil!!! Makes so mad!!!
People with a compulsion to murder exist.
If UK invaded middle east, colonised america, canada, australia, nz, etc and now attacking China... how could you expect decency? Royal family scum is outdated
Every word Caroline said is absolutely true. There is a culture where men think that harassing random women is acceptable. Just yesterday I was waiting for a taxi after doing my grocery shop, when a man drove by and stared at me. He then turned his vehicle around and drove back, stopped a few yards away and sounded the car horn at me, probably hoping that I would respond. The taxi didn't arrive so in fear of standing there any longer I went into the bus station and took a bus home. Women shouldn't have to feel afraid to go out and about living their lives. NOTE - this was in broad daylight.
I've had similar. I don't make eye contact with any of them any more.
I've had similar experience at 17 the man tried to get his car near where I was standing
Did you use an app? Because it sounds like that was the taxi.
I can only imagine what Sarah began to experienced during that 90 minute drive to Kent realising it wasn't what it seemed and she was handcuffed behind her back totally defenseless not even able to undo her seat belt and powerless throughout her ordeal.
It's so fucked up beyond belief.
i agree. poor sarah. she would have thought he was not a real police officer, even though she was handcuffed. the horror she must have felt is heartbreaking. the 80 mile drive would have taken about 1 hour, and to think about what sarah was thinking or saying makes me feel so sad. RIP, SARAH.
I cried so much over this young woman here in Johannesburg. I'm so sorry.
What is possibly most amazing is he thought that would work. You'd think the police would be better at crime but they seem to think "I'm a PC" is enough to let them to get away with crimes. It's almost like they know most of the time that is enough.
Since I've used the internet I've been amazed at the amount of abusive men who women have taken out injunctions against offline, then come online to support each other promoting violence about women.
They're nearly all in the USA which has a sick culture, where they think free speech is about shooting their mouths off at each other and annoying everybody, especially men and women.
They do things like make UA-cam videos saying they don't want women, but instead of going away, they spend much of their time on the video comments trying to make women feel bad about themselves and promoting others abuse women
Couzins did get away with his sexual perversion crimes until that point, he had very good reason to believe he could get away with kidnap, rape and murder, police buddies had covered up his flashing so why not that?
@@andrewprettyquick2070 Yup, there are numerous videos online of police abusing their powers and assaulting citizens, while their colleagues stand around doing nothing. They don't respect the law or people's individual rights, they just abuse their positions to enforce their egos.
@@terrybunch7313 I know of 2 cases where cops 'R' men with their truncheons as a group of colleagues stood around on the street - in France [on film] & US, but still cops.
Your forgetting the point. Those in positions of power are abusing it. This is a perfect example. Not a culture problem cause most men in this country would deal with him properly.
Totally agree , most definitely not a cultural problem , the woman talking then had a massive problem with men in general and she’s supposed to be an intelligent voice on the subject , most men are good people and they would have helped Sarah if they had witnessed the kidnapping.
Girl it's been a cultural problem for centuries. Stop pandering and wake up. And what men are you talking about to handle him? Geez you sound naive and ignorant. Because if that was the case then women AND children wouldn't have been dealing with this type of violence for centuries.
@@spencerglover1 She is and you sound just as naive and blind as the person that you are agreeing with.
I am afraid that's not the case . Men may not make sexist comments or undertake such actions but they ignore freinds and colleagues who do dismissing it it as " banter " they say nothing despite ot being a problem
The vast majority of men wouldn't " deal " with him put of fear of retaliation. That's wistfully thinking
@@hannahdyson7129 In the workplace yes I know what u mean. It's absolutely horrific. but on the streets he would never be able to walk them now. If feds didn't lift him he wouldn't be alive.
Just one of the most heartbreaking cases I've ever witnessed , all the CCTV footage makes it worse, we have change culturally to prevent men from doing things like this ,my heart goes out to her family and boyfriend
?? You mean we need to find a way of working out who is a psychopath? Murder, rape and brutality are thankfully not a common past time or desire found amongst the general male population. There will always be men and a smaller percentage of women who despite the risk of facing any given punishments will take lurid pleasure in the death and suffering of their chosen victim.
Terrible crime. Sentencing is tomorrow. Spare a thought for her family tomorrow.
He will be getting a life sentence as it was premeditated and his position of authority was abused to enable the planned crimes, and he commited two serious common law offences.
It's likely he will serve a minimum of 25 years before being considered for any parole.
@@leonblittle226 he's gonna be in prison his whole life now
The problem (for which solution has to be proposed) is not that he was a man who killed a woman, but rather it was that he was a police officer who used his police power to rape and murder an ordinary civilian.
This is absolutely terrifying! I expect to see some literature about OUR rights when it comes to being stopped by an officer as I would honestly not know? Can we ask they radio the office? Show ID? An on duty status…Something! This is so so sad 💔
Hello. The murderer of Sarah ticked most of these boxes. It is difficult to prevent abuse, without relieving police of some of their powers.
It is very scary not just for women. How would you know if the ID was real.
Or ring 999 and mention what is going on and get the “policeman” to speak on phone with them on speakerphone to explain reason for arrest!
All police officers have to work in pairs and can’t make an arrest alone.
@@billmayor8567 probably 999 would have said "if you are arrested just comply!"
Poor girl must have been terrified.
My first thought was like many others about the death penalty but that would be too easy for him.
The POS is going to have a life-time of suffering and torment in prison. That is at the very least a satisfying thought.
Misogyny is a horror beyond nightmares. True evil.
Misogyny doesn't exist anymore lol 2021
He’s deffo done it before! To be confident to that length and carry out such terrible crime, he must’ve done it before! Maybe with a homeless women, or a foreigner…
This requires a change in law. No arrests with less than a minimum of two police officers on the scene.
never trust a cop on his own
Words can’t describe. The evil
Imagine if the folks who don’t want vaccines were just as passionate about banning violent pornography
The fact that stuff like that not only exists, but is widespread and popular, is proof enough of how many evil people like this "man" are out there.
Horrifying beyond belief.
There must be reforms and a change in these procedures stopping these I.D's leaving the stations when shifts are finished.
We want a Sarah's Law supporting Public Oversight of the Met.
I can’t imagine the utter terror Sarah must have felt when she realised what was happening. How can her parents ever make sense of her violent death? I don’t think they will ever have peace again. Wayne couzens is pure evil
It seems unfortunate to me that the police (and many other so-called 'authorities' ) in this country have been given too much power to harass and intimidate innocent citizens who are absolutely no harm to anyone 🙁
This is why we should overthrow them and establish a new governing system
You know this is all propa ganda to show big brother is watching you but the fact is he used the power the government gave him to kill that poor lady my she rest in peace
"It seems unfortunate to me that the police"
The police had nothing to do with it. The guy wasn't acting as an officer. You may as well blame men.
@blackmark5210, Unfortunately, the fact of the matter is that Couzens was 'acting' as a police officer and he abused his 'authority' as a police officer to abduct poor Sarah 😥
@@covidonenine1948 'acting'
That is acting as a police officer only in the sense of pretending to be acting as a police officer. None of his actions were at all under the legitimacy of law enforcement or any related powers of law enforcement. The connection you are trying to make doesn't exist.
Bring back the Death penalty
For some reason I thought she was probably pulled off the street and abducted but for him to have falsely arrested her and handcuffed her! Anyone would’ve fell for this, it’s just unthinkable that anyone would do this! I now understand why my partner is always worried if go out alone in the evenings:(
Wayne Couzens worked on COVID-19 patrols and enforcing coronavirus regulations during the lockdown, so he was doing this before the attack and probably realized these lies works very well on the young girls in the streets. He pre-planned his attack and used this, on March 3rd, when he committed a crime on Sarah!
How many time has he done this? This cannot be his first time!!
Well it could be,
Let the story unfold.
It is funny tho, when i was in the gabby brian case comment secton, there was a dude who rambling about how corrupt the police is and they might be the one who did it, i just turn him away and said that it was only a small possibility, other people also think that he is crazy and turn him away, now, he should be here then going all out about it.
Let me tell him, that if i can track my notification thread.
Just learning about this. How sickening and heartbreaking.
Beyond unexceptionable.
No matter what country!!!!!!
Sending love and prayers from the US
It does not suprise me anymore of the level of wickedness and depravity a human being can willfully commit on another human being.
But what I do find surprising is how they believe they can get away with it.
Police think and, in many situations, do get away with far too much illegal behaviour. This guy for example exposed himself in public a week before he murdered this woman, it was reported and brushed under the carpet by his colleagues. Had he been charged and sacked this woman would still be alive. It’s time Police are held responsible for the crimes they commit.
Theres plenty more like him out there with a badge dont doubt it for a second
The horror that Sarah must have gone through in her final hours. God will look after you. Sleep in peace Sarah x
I'm from the US, so I don't know how things work over there. Do your laws require young women to allow themselves to be handcuffed by police when they know for sure that they didn't break any of your laws?
Going to her friends house for dinner/ drinks meant that Sarah was actually breaking COVID laws( which when confronted by Him meant she probably felt guilty for going to her friends house) at a time when COVID cases were very high. She probably had no real interaction with police before. The COVID laws were changing rapidly every other week so it’s very understandable she was confused about it all. She was compliant thinking she’ll sort it out at the police station. The handcuffs were a bit extreme but she thought it was protocol like must of us would in that situation unfortunately.
What a shock another copper lying to his back teeth.
What a monster, how did the Metropolitan police even employ him is a mystery. I pray the victims family get some kind of peace at this difficult time.
We don't know.. But I read somewhere that he was known from his colleagues as the violent porn addict and a flasher! Was called a R*PIST! Shoulda never been working anywhere close to the Police or MET!
he was probs a nice or no so nice guy who probs might of just done school and stuff and got the job he may have been good at the time even after he might be sorry hopefully
He slipped through one net, then another. On one occasion in 2017 due to extra demand for officers in the wake of the Paris attack. Would never have been that way had it not been for the Tories effectively defunding the police by cuts after cuts! And we would still live in days when there were always 2 bobbies on the beat, never 1.
@4:34 I thought I was safe where I live in a coastal town in Kent but I was assaulted on my way home from work in 2014. It was not my responsibility that was at fault. It was his. And yes I’m hyper vigilant because of this even though it was through no fault of mine. I just happened to cross paths with a very prolific offender that was apprehended later that year after assaulting over 100 women and girls in north Kent. He got a life sentence. How dare you Jon snow try to put the blame on us women for daring to go about our lives??!
What's his name??
John guscott.
@@lucieni just read it. What an evil thing he is. Hope he rots for whatever life he has left. Hope you are OK now.
Gosh same here in grimsby in 2013 I was mugged at knife point and the police did not believe me at all being interviewed questioned by the police made it far worse for me then the mugging itself. I ended up being on diamazipan benzos for 6 months afterwards because of what happened. We should be safe on the streets but were not women should go out every day night and walk the streets we should be able to do that
Hope your doing ok now dont stop going out in fear be strong and keep safe
That’s not even a man, it’s a demon!!!!! Smh this is soooo very heartbreaking 💔
What type of person do the police force employ?
We don't know.. But I read somewhere that he was known from his colleagues as the violent porn addict and a flasher! Shoulda never been working anywhere close to the MET!
A whole life sentence would be appropriate.
The devil has a home in the presence of such officers
Just the thought of when, when it clicked with her, that she knew she was in trouble?
My heart aches for her tagic death & bleeds for her families sorrow...😩😪
Hope he gets what's coming to him in prison
Nothing is going to happen for him in prison. It's probably a group of same minded people like him, other Police/pedophiles/rapists to joke around with. Also he gets 3 meals per day, a shower, some ps5 time, 1 hour outside and no more 29k debt to re-pay. Also probably he gets reduced jail time in the end. Easy life for Wayne.
@@edgaras6796 Wow. I can hardly believe a rapist/murderer could have a better life than some of the poor homeless folk! It's disgusting. Why can't some that prison food be donated to the homeless? As far as I'm concerned people aren't usually homeless because they deserve it.

It’s heartbreaking 💔 feeling the highest degree of hurt 😔 what this beautiful young woman who had her whole life ahead of her endured.
I simply can not imagine how she would feel at the time she engaged with the perpetrator an actor who abused his position to take the life of an innocent person. Why the darkness ever came near this beautiful light I will never understand? What is to be learned from this?
The family must be knotted with pain, disbelief, and now have to listen to the gruesome details about the last hours of how their daughter had to live in court.
Nothing is enough to make matters any better for this family.
I pray to God in the name of Jesus and the Holy Spirit to help guide you the family of Sarah through the deepest darkest hours of your lives, may you find peace of mind in this senseless murder. God Bless You All and Keep You Comforted.
Sylvia from Scotland 🏴 Uk 🇬🇧
So heartbreaking how her sister will never be an aunt to Sarah’s children and her brother never an uncle to Sarah’s children and her parents never experiencing being grandparents to Sarah’s children. Her boyfriend who will never forget that last phone call arranging their next get together. Her father never getting to walk her up the aisle, her mother and sister never being able to do the girly outings to the bridal shops. Yep, sometimes life is just too unfair. Where do the family start with trying to pick up the pieces? Can you imagine how they felt having to clear out her home?....there will have been all the signs there of somebody who felt that they had their whole life ahead of them😢
People like Wayne Couzens are a special kind of human being - a very, very sick, psychopathic kind! How can you put someone through the kind of ordeal he did and simply not care about the terror and pain you are inflicting, before ending their life! I can’t even begin to imagine how terrified Sarah must have been, or the grief her family are going though! They must replay it over and over in their minds, desperately wishing they could turn the clock back and save her! It doesn’t bear thinking about! A beautiful young woman with her whole life in front of her! I hope Couzens rots in his cell! Apparently he was shaking as he was sentenced to his whole life term - well, I’m sure that wasn’t as scary as the ordeal he put Sarah through! Maybe such a long time in prison will give him the chance to reflect on what he did to Sarah, and the irreversible damage he has inflicted on her family!!
No fun for cops in prison. So will he be in solitary lockdown forever?
@@sidstovell2177 He'll be frequently moved around the high security prisons, kept in solitary confinement for his own protection til he dies.
The worst kind of policeman you can ever encounter He was only interested in one thing that was to carry out an evil plan and poor Sarah was at the wrong place at the wrong time but had it not been her It would have been another female who would have paid the price I hope there are no more tragedies like this one Women are so vulnerable it's appalling that even in the 21st century men like cousins exist to rape and murder women
Yes, orther prisoners on the orther wings will be waiting for the slightest mistake guards make in protecting him and will go for him , boiling oil or sugar is the favorite Weapon. In the mean time his food will be seasoned with bodily fluids. 😅
This extraordinarily shocking case in the United Kingdom is somewhat reminiscent of a case from twenty-nine years ago in which a deputy sheriff of Harris County (Houston), TX egregiously violated his oath of duty when he murdered a woman 'under colour of authority' by obtaining an arrest warrant under patently false pretenses.
Oh gosh
You don't need to go that far back. An officer in the US (Holtzclaw) was given life a few years ago. 🤷🏼♂️
@@chemeister My biggest concern is the entrenched atmosphere of unfettered impunity within the law enforcement establishment of any country, including that of the United States. Not to mention the United Kingdom.
Rest in Peace Sarah and my most sincere condolences to the Everard family.

So why should any arrested person be cuffed behind the back
she probably has never been in trouble with the law so she would have been confused
@@paulhynes170 not the point I’m making.
Cuffing behind the back is a serious tactical move.
Usually done on violent or hardened criminals.
The law needs to be reviewed in cuffing in general
@@user-kq5qp6dh8l totally agree the handcuffing it should never be used like that on people who non aggressive

He won’t get out trust me 💯
Heart wrenching. Thoughts for family. Rest in peace Sarah !
It's right near where I live very sad -sickening - R.I.P Sarah
If there’s any justice, the officers will turn off the cameras and he’ll be eating though a straw.
They should train officers to deal with these situations in the first place cus it sounds like they dont
@@tdoc9051 How do you train somebody to deal with being a sick, violent, sexual predator?
@@HowDeepIsYourJesus if a criminal threatens a police officer enough to make him believe his family is in danger, should the protocol be to give in to that? Do they not have enough strategy to contend? Ok my first rule would be to not give in to those threats, second, move the officers family and thirdly let the boys in blue take control of the organisation pushing out that fear with a military/special forces grade response. Don't we have all this in place already?
@@tdoc9051 What are you on about? He wasn't being threatened by anybody - did you miss the part of the report where they confirmed he was lying through his teeth??? And yes, they have anti-corruption units for EXACTLY that sort of thing.
@@HowDeepIsYourJesus I was watching it through subs cus volume didnt work, just watched it again.......this is a different story to what i was first reading, my apologies.
The way he talks he doesn’t sound like a police officer
I believe we need a public campaign run by the police advising people what they do if they were ever in Sarah's situation. Call it Sarah's Safety! Sarah's life was taken and she needs to be remembered by us all.
I completely disagree. After hearing about this case, the last thing I want to do is to listen to the police about how to stay safe
@@gracie4394 ok do you have another idea for how we can grow public awareness of our rights in such situations? Maybe another part of the government could run the campaign?
I also think we should be more aware about psychopaths - apparently 1% of the population and higher in jobs like CEOs. We shouldn’t be surprised when humans do horrifying things- we need to acknowledge this is reality given biological and environmental factors and act proactively to minimise these sorts of situations as much as possible, BEFORE they happen.
A campaign run by the police ?? Hahahahhaha. Have u lost your marbles. How dare you speak such wickedness in the comment section that should be dedicated to the remembrance of Sarah Everard !
Awareness of danger. Don't walk the streets. Cctv does not keep people safe. WC is to blame 100 percent but it made Sarah unsafe. He had her in his car in 3 mins, used his ID. We could not prevent this. This man is to blame. Not Sarah or any woman. We can't prevent this. She could use her phone.
Our streets are not safe. Women are not safe. They never will be. There are men, very few men who take advantage. Lower level crime is not monitored because we have overcrowding in our prisons. It's not cultural. I get a taxi, my partner picks me up. I take responsibility for my own safety. I know self defense and will fight. Having been raped and left to die in a carpark, my employers carpark at 6pm, the man stalked me for years. I don't blame the police or all men. All men are not rapists. There is no funding for the country to fix these problems.
People are saying that this particular murder could have been prevented and I agree on that note, but if it hadn't been this lady it would have been someone else. If he had been reprimanded for flashing and suspended from the force he would have still found a way to do what he did to someone else by other means. This guy was always a ticking time bomb waiting to explode. The way he carried out the crime was stupid and thoughtless, anyone who is anyone knows that hire cars can be traced back to whoever is hiring one and that there is CCTV absolutely everywhere in the UK. He was so determined to r**e and kill someone. There was nothing that anyone could have done about it. The man is a psychopath and these perverse and pathological desires overtook him.
Hired out a car in his own name, abducted a woman in the highest surveilled area if the country. Drove her back to the area he lives and disposes of her body right next to land he owned. Its as if he wanted to be caught. Or his urges that he'd been suppressing for god knows how long took over and he no longer cared
Something is wrong with British people and the British institution that a policeman can do this, and those who tried to stand vigil were arrested.
So sad rest in peace Sarah 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
RIP Sara Everard, Princess Diana, Jo Cox and Sabina Nessa
R.i.p poor girl so sorry for you 😭
She had a terrible fake Facebook profile. So little effort went into this should have been dropped.
wicked wicked Police
My intuition was telling me to teach my young daughter, in case she was lost and looking for help, not to go to police officers but approach mothers with children and best group of people rather than one person
Let's start by bringing back capital punishment for these monsters.
