Sarah Everard: New facts about the policeman who killed her

New facts see the light of day for him Former police officer sentenced to life in prison for Sarah Everard’s murder. The 49-year-old was charged today, Friday (18/3) with four new cases of sexual harassment that had taken place a few weeks earlier.

Wayne Cousins, 49, a police officer on a diplomatic mission, kidnapped Sarah Everard on a London street while she was returning home last March, using his police force to force her into his car.

Her body was later found in a wooded area about 50 miles (80 km) in the south east of England.

His actions provoked outrage at the failure of the police, and society, to address violence against women. Cousins ​​was sentenced to life in prison without parole.

The prosecutor’s office said it had now given its approval to indict Cousins ​​for four more suspected public indecency offenses, committed less than a month before the Everard attack.

“Following the referral of evidence by the Metropolitan Police, the Special Directorate of Crime (CPS) has given its approval for four counts of insulting the public against Wayne Cousins,” said CPS chief Rosemary Ensley, according to Atikora Piskto.

“The four alleged offenses took place between January and February 2021,” he added.

Cousins ​​is expected to appear in court on April 13.
