Sarah Everard: was 33 years of age.
She was kidnapped, raped, and murdered
by a Metropolitan Police Officer, named Wayne Couzens.
Sarah Everard was often described as, 'beautiful, thoughtful, and incredibly kind'.
From what I read about Sarah, she had a well deserved name, because in Hebrew, Sarah means Princess.
KILLER COP!
Killer Cop:
Sarah Everard was kidnapped and murdered by 48 year old police officer Wayne Couzens.
Couzens joined the metropolitan police in 2018, after working for the Parliamentary and Diplomatic Protection Command.
They are an armed unit responsible for guarding the Parliamentary estate and the embassies in London.
On February the 28th Couzens was allegedly accused of exposing himself twice to staff at a fast food restaurant in South London.
Sarah a marketing executive had disappeared whilst walking home to Brixton from Clapham in south London.
She had been reported missing by her boyfriend on March the 4th 2021.
Officer Couzens, of Deal, Kent, is accused of kidnapping Sarah in the Poynders Road area of Clapham, and then murdering her.
Couzens.Walking Home:
Sarah had been visiting her friend in the Clapham Junction area on March the 3rd.
She had left at around 21:00 to walk back home, around 2.5 miles.
On the way home she called her boyfriend and conversed with him for around 14 minutes.
Evidence had shown that she had been seen walking home alone, it was captured on a CCTV camera at 21:15, and then again at 21:28.
On the evening of the 4th of March her boyfriend Josh Lowth, reported her missing because he had been unable to contact her.
The police later searched an abandoned leisure complex in Ashford.
It was there that they eventually discovered that her body had been first hidden.
They then further revealed that her body had originally been placed within a large builders bag.
Later Couzens had moved her body again, but when he heard that police were searching the local area he moved her once more.
He was witnessed around 11am on the 5th of March filling up a petrol can in a service station.
After which he had then placed her body into a fly tipped fridge then poured the fuel over her body and set it alight.
That same day a witness had seen a large Orange and Yellow flame in Hoads Wood near Ashford.
The police eventually searched the area and discovered her remains inside two large green builders bags in a pond.
They later obtained evidence that Couzens had purchased those bags.
The location as to where her remains had been found was very close to where Couzens had actually taken his wife and children on the 7th of March.
Phone data had led officers to this site, and at around 4.45pm on the 10th of March, they found her remains.
Due to the decomposition her remains had to be identified through the use of dental records.
And although a post-mortem examination had been performed, the cause of her death was not immediately declared.
Eventually they did announce that her cause of death had been strangulation.
The scene.Missed Opportunities:
Due to the indecent exposure report, it was criticised that the police had missed their opportunity.
Possibly had they taken this charge more seriously, the officer may have been detained, or possibly psychologically evaluated?
The evidence of other events involving Couzens, gives possible indication that the officer was not thinking logically at any time.
Certain reports have emerged that he had injured his head twice whilst incarcerated, suggesting that he may have possibly self harmed?
These are the actions of someone being non compos-mentis, (Psychotic episode)?
Demonstration.THE TOTAL DISRESPECT FROM POLICE!
Police Degradation:
This site as you know is all about Human Rights, and fighting Injustice.
Given that it was a police officer accused of murdering Sarah, you would expect that to be extreme enough?
However, it has come to light that yet another Met officer whilst searching for Sarah allegedly, shared an 'inappropriate graphic' with their colleagues.
The probationary constable, had sent colleagues a meme that featured images of a woman being abducted by a uniformed police officer.
Assistant Commissioner Nick Ephgrave has referred the incident to the IOPC, and the officer has been given a non-public role whilst investigations continue.
Given the serious nature of this enquiry, I believe that as probationary officer, they should have been disqualified from ever becoming a member of the police force?
The context of their duties at the time proves beyond any doubt, that they would make a very bad officer of the law.
This particular graphic that was sent, was not that of Sarah, but her family have been informed.
Police presence.
Vigil For Sarah:
Despite the complete let down by police investigating this officer,
a further mistreatment by police has also involved women at one of Sarah's vigils.
These vigils had also taken place in Glasgow, Nottingham, Birmingham and Bristol.
Based on what was shown in certain videos, it was clear to see, that these women were treated violently, and unjustly.
The police stated that the crowds were too close, and the pandemic virus could have easily been spread.
They further stated that they had been verbally insulted.
Given that it was a police officer accused of her murder, logic would dictate that distance and diplomacy would have gone so much further?
As for simply insulting the police, given the very nature of this crime, I am sure that they've had worse?
Woman being manhandled by police.Disorganisation:
The vigil had been organised by 'Reclaim These Streets', but were forced to cancel by the Metropolitan Police.
The police stated that it would be in breach of the corona virus restrictions.
Following the clashes, organiser Jamie Klingler stated that the police handling of these events was a clear sign of the systemic ignorance and oppression of women.
The closeness during a pandemic was risky, but it was perfectly obvious that people would want to attend the vigil to mourn Sarah.
And given that clarity, the police should have previously organised dividers and guides to keep the mourners distanced.
Males arresting women with such deliberate force is undemocratic, and in itself, possibly illegal?
Hundreds of people blocked traffic on Westminster Bridge, then continued to New Scotland Yard, shouting 'shame on you'.
Tributes.RIP.
COMMISSIONER RESIGNATION CRIES!
Pointless Apologies:
Metropolitan Police Commissioner Dame Cressida Dick is facing calls to resign after these clashes.
However, she has apologised for the police mishandling of the situation, and there is no support from parliament for her to do so.
The real problem here, is how this can proceed, and hopefully implement new ideas to keep women safe.
Cressida is possibly better suited to enforce this, as a woman herself, she would possibly have just as much empathy for those involved.
Maybe in future there will be better preparation for keeping people safe, instead of trying to halt the flow of natural human behaviour?
Whilst Governmental laws and Policing my be a way to control illegality, taking away someones basic human rights knows no such boundaries.
As for Couzens, the suggestion has always been for psychiatric evaluations on people showing strange behaviour, such as stalking, or pestering women unnecessarily.
A male exposing himself to anyone, is a very bad sign, and should involve immediate detainment in a psychiatric hospital for as long as it takes.
If this sounds like an overkill, then consider what just happened?
Prevention has always been the better option to cure.
Cressida DickSECOND AUTOPSY PERFORMED!
Update: 18th March 2021: A second autopsy is to be perfomed due to the inconclusve results from the first.
Met deputy, Sir Stephen House says that he cannot apologise for officers over the Sarah Everard vigil
Stating that his officers were only doing their duty as they seen it, and he will not second-guess them.
Possibly a more diplomatic approach would have been for him to have apologised for the obvious use of excessive force towards the arrested women?
Update: 08th June 2021: Former Metropolitan Police officer Wayne Couzens,
has admitted both the kidnap, and the rape of Sarah Everard during a hearing at the Old Bailey.
The charge of her murder has yet to be put to him.
Update: 09th July 2021: Former Metropolitan Police officer Wayne Couzens,
has today admitted to killing Sarah Everard during a hearing at the Old Bailey.
Update: 30th September 2021: Former Metropolitan Police officer Wayne Couzens,
was today at the Old Bailey given a full life sentence for the kidnapping, rape, and murder of Sarah Everard.
This means that he will never be released, and will die incarcerated.
His defence argued that the crime was serious, but he shouldn't be given life.
The judge disagreed, stating that Couzens had used his police powers to falsely arrest Sarah and kidnap her.
This cowardly act under the guise of a police officer is possibly the lowest anyone could go.
He had handcuffed her wrists positioned behind her back, he may have used Covid as an excuse for her arrest.
Sarah would have possibly realised at some point of the journey that she was in danger.
Update: 14th August 2022:
The six people attending the Sarah Everard vigil, have had the charges against them dropped.
RIP.
Final word: The general consensus is the public no longer have any trust in the police whatsoever.
Not only because of what has happened to this innocent young woman.
But it was expressed that there should be a follow up?
It requires subsequent investigations into other possible unsolved female murders that Couzens may have committed?
Could people be expected to believe that Wayne Couzens at his age, has only done this, just once?
Over the years the Met have earned themselves a really bad reputation concerning mistreatment and poor investigation tactics.
In Sarah Everard's name, they need to do some real police work, and follow up on all similar outstanding crimes!
No-one has the right to ask any woman to change their lives, but there is just one suggestion that might give them a little more security...
They could possibly visit this page which offers a protection alternative.
Don't become a victim!
The question on every females lips in the UK is...
'How can WE break the law, when ITS already broken'?
Suggestion:
30th September 2021
OPEN TRUST:
Lost Trust:
If the police wish to restore some trust from the female population in the UK then,
they should seriously consider that any lone, or plain clothes police officer should inform the police base before detaining any single female.
Following this the base would communicate their sanctioning of the arrest to the actual female suspect.
This law should become part of every females legal rights.
ONE LIFE LOST, IS ONE TOO MANY!
