Sarah Everard killer Wayne Couzens charged with four counts of indecent exposure

Wayne Couzens has been charged with four counts of indecent exposure which allegedly took place in the weeks before he murdered Sarah Everard, the Crown Prosecution Service has said.

The alleged offences are said to have taken place between January and February 2021, when Couzens was a serving Metropolitan Police officer.

Rosemary Ainslie, head of the CPS Special Crime Division, said: “Following a referral of evidence by the Metropolitan Police, the CPS has authorised four charges of indecent exposure against Wayne Couzens.

“He will appear at Westminster Magistrates’ Court on 13 April.”

Sarah Everard was raped and killed in March last year.

Couzens is serving a whole-life term for the abduction, rape and murder of Ms Everard.
