Watch in full: Report reveals 'repeated failure' over Sarah Everard’s killer, Wayne Couzens

Wayne Couzens sexually assaulted a child, attempted to kidnap a woman at knife point and was reported to police eight times for exposing himself in the years before he kidnapped, raped and murdered Sarah Everard, a damning inquiry has found.
The former Metropolitan Police officer had a long history of sexual offending dating back to 1995 but was never arrested or prosecuted and was able to pass police vetting and become an armed officer with both the Civil Nuclear Constabulary (CNC) and the Met.
A long awaited report by Dame Elish Angiolini into Couzens, published on Thursday, said there was a “lamentable and repeated failure” to deal with allegations reported to police before Miss Everard’s murder in March 2021.
