Sarah Everard's murderer kidnapped her using police ID and handcuffs
CNN
Wayne Couzens, the former police officer who has admitted to the kidnap, rape and murder of Sarah Everard, used his police identification and handcuffs to deceive her into getting into his car, prosecutors said Wednesday at a London sentencing hearing.
Everard, a 33-year-old marketing executive, went missing on the evening of March 3 after leaving a friend's house in Clapham, south London. Her remains were found days later in woodland near Ashford, Kent -- more than 50 miles from where she was last seen.
Couzens was later arrested at his home in Kent, close to where Everard's body had been found. Prosecutors said in July that Everard and Couzens "were total strangers to each other" before he abducted her from the roadside.
