Wayne Couzens: Police should 'never have employed' Sarah Everard's killer, says inquiry 

Police don't become psychopaths. Psychopaths become police.

Automatic suspension for certain crime’s? Shouldn’t police be suspended for ALL crimes? A crime is a crime and police shouldn’t be committing ANY crimes

My citizenship application was delayed by three years , after living here for 18 years as a stateless person, because of a littering fine which deemed me to be not a person of good character. A normal security job at at Tesco’s requires a strict vetting process, including 5 years adress and employment history with no gaps, an enhanced dbs( not only criminal convictions but all sorts of police record, financial soundness, no bad debts, defaults, bankruptcies,ccj etc. it’s beyond belief that police can get away with recruiting someone with a history like that.

He seriously thought he could get away with murdering Sarah, because he got away with so much already. He was emboldened. It's scary that you cannot trust a police officer. Poor Sarah❤

And why was he allowed to stay in the force so long, when people knew what he was like. Deep seated issues in the police force.

Poor girl died due to a monster employed by other monsters!!!

If I had flashed someone I wouldn’t be able to be a teacher, so why can someone be a police officer? Baffling.

How many more are like him in the MET and wider police services?

police reform is a must

The police are absolutely hopeless. Always apologies.

Are you telling me the Met is full of predators and they all cover each others back. I My gosh I am shook.

Condolences to the family of this poor girl. With the benefit of hindsight, I sincerely hope that lessons will be learned this time and police vetting procedures will be reviewed thoroughly and vigorously to ensure that this doesn't occur again on UK soil. Prayers, vigils, resolve and meaningful dialogue, not the usual lip service given by opportunistic career politicians or useless Mayors

Because plenty of sociopaths are attracted to the power and authority.

They always say that ! But only after they've been caught out.

*they are only añoyed that they were caught doing this. Remember, numerous officers tried to hide and cover up things for years.*

I volunteer with Refuge. The National domestic abuse helpline and this news resonates with the amount of horror stories related to police response to DV I hear every time I speak to a survivor…

A tragedy I wont ever forget 😢💔

this man should never been anywhere near a police man's uniform..muchless an officer Rip Sarah 🙏

Some years ago I was walking to work very early in the morning. There was a police car parked in the middle of the road. As I approached , one officer mimicked how l walked and they both started laughing. IT WAS WC ! I live in Bromley l hzd to teach myself to walked again as a child. I waddle like a duck lol ....Yep

I see it's important to politicians, there was only single figures on the benches. Shame on them for not turning out for this!

Why only sexual offences, why not all types of misconduct and abuse of powers.

R.I.P. Sarah 🙏 😢

It's disgraceful that the police chose to ignore the reportings against this person, he probably felt he was untouchable while his behaviour was ignored and allowed to escalate.

If you let your thoughts linger on this tragic case it will break you up

R.I.P. beautiful Sarah❤🕯💐😢

I'd have thought his nickname of the rapist might be a clue.

Well well well usual suspects I see

There's plenty more in MET Police.

2:30 So it's taken 'til 2024 to realise that officers charged with "certain criminal offences" should be automatically suspended? And which other criminal charges will not bring about suspension? Is there an acceptable level of criminality in serving officers?

4:20 She’s not answering the questions!!!! God, these journalist are so poor. She’s letting her get away with not giving any answers.

With the vetting system we have nowadays Jack the Ripper could join the police force and get away with it !

Flashers seem harmless but it seems to be a pre curser for mentel illness that leads to violent sexual offences

We've learnt lessons -The police

It blows my mind that police in England can operate solo. They patrol in twos in Scotland and threes in Northern Ireland.

Nobody named Nobody Blamed,all Lip Service.

A police force falling to realise he got caught for his Devilish actions.

All of the warning beacons and Klaxons are going off, but you choose to ignore them. What could go wrong?

Sicko

What about all the officers who are currently serving that went through the same flawed vetting process!??? What else was missed!?

What do we pay the police force for? Disgusting. Disgusting.

Please hold James Cleverly and his immediate predecessors (Suella Braverman and Priti Patel) to account, folks. Instead of stopping the small boats, can they please take action on violence against women: stopping infinitesimally low rape conviction rates, and taking action against the scourge of violence against women within homes, on the streets or through the internet, and taking concrete steps with colleagues to sow the seeds of a cultural shift in how we educate young people to help prevent these issues. Give me a political party that wants to win my vote with action on this.

The Vetting organisation the FCO (Foreign and Commonwealth Office) very significantly failed the Public by clearly not carrying out sufficient background checks on this disgusting individual and should now be subject to review for their part in this tragic event for fast tracking him through

We should ask why the police are not vetted in the same stringent way that teachers are vetted using the DBS system. The state of the woke police today means public confidence in them is at an all-time low. They need to return to Peel's nine principles of policing. Stop the politics and start cracking down on crime that is out of control.

Type of propaganda bullshit is this, that wasn’t this man’s first Rodeo

I wonder if Sarah was his first victim? Frightening.

I can't believe this !

So 300 pages to say that someone flashing their willy should never have been employed as a police officer.

HOW MUCH WILL IT COST?, SHAME ON YOUR, interviewer

I got a racist experience with the Police and i would like to bring my story out to the public. We got serious racist and vile people in the met at the moment and I got evidence and a case to back up my claim. Black people are being treated badly. Public awareness is paramount to how they are being policed by some people who are not fit for purpose in position of powers. There is a disconnect between the senior officers and serving officers they do not have a clue on what is going on our streets.

Why don't they read out all the men's names that have been killed in the same period? Probably because there isn't enough time in the day to get through the list.

Cathy Newman should not be on TV

Was Couzens a Free Mason 🤔

My heart breaks for Sarah so beautiful ❤️ thinking of her mom and dad to endure this with your precious daughter ❤️

Shut that door Everard

When young males have "Role Models" like Mason Greenwood in the public eye doing what he did and getting away with it for all to see... It sends out a very scary messege to young lads.

RIP to all those beautiful women!

It’s ok, they’ve said sorry. A young life lost and they think that’s enough.

Why cozens Why? 😢

How can women protect themselves?!??!!

*The po lice forces required a reform and more scrupulous vetting system before the murder of Steven Lawrence. However , it is very difficult to reform po lice culture.*

The most important medical breakthrough would be a test or way of ascertaining if someone was devoid of empathy, then these people could be denied any position of employment that involve public service

Sad this evil act took.place but the world is unkind.

Beyond belief.

They knew how dangerous he was before he'd joined the Police forces and still promoted him into what he was until Sarah Everard death! It is theirs systems that is failing by employing the criminal. It is a bigger mess then we thinks it is

why believe anything that the police and parliament say? - they only look out for themselves not the public. this will not be a one off case considering how flawed the whole system is and further apologies and lessons learnt will be reiterated when such an incidence is unfortunately repeated in the future.

Just only police uniforms he used inside he is monster and innocent Sarah died 😔😔😔🙏🏻

Every time I see that poor girls face,I want to weep,How in the name of humanity,could any man hurt her?But he did, he is a danger to every female,till the end of his life!!

sorry is enough?

Men have a lot to answer for.

Certain criminal offences ?

Finally Justice for Sarah and recognition whats policing our streets I use the word Policing Losely ! Whats happened to the People that hired him ? What happened to his colleagues whom knew what he was like ? are they still policing our streets ? Doesn't makes me feel safe how about you ? I thought we had beat this kind of abuse in WW2 .

well well well

In other words, No!

Devil inside!

this makes me mad, every time I see it

There's more than one. You can be sure of that.

So basically any accusation means you are barred from certain professions ?? A load of clap trap.

Until the world ends, womens safety will always be a concern.

I am sorry but I don't think these MPs will change anything. All of them should have been shouting years ago. The left are good at posturing sad but true.

People must try to not overreact... He wasn't a police officer... he was a glorified ornamental pillar. His job was to stand in front of an embassy and look intimidating. His interaction with the general public was... zero. Do you know how tricky it is to find 'normal' yet reliable people, that will tolerate standing still in the same spot for hours upon hours, doing absolutely nothing?

And yet they did.

Dont forget the most recent one... Cliff Mitchell, channel 4 and other msm dont seem to talking about him much though... wonder why ...

I was a teacher for many years and across the decades recall three different students who passionately wanted to get into the police. One was, I'm certain, a psychopath. The second had a sort of Jim Davidson style 'cheeky chappie' persona that belied a very dishonest and deeply misogynist character. The third one was a girl - she was actually really hard working, emotionally intelligent and resilient, I'm sure she would have made a good police officer. I often wonder if any of the three of them made it into the service.

Justice for PC Martin Scott RIP

Ignored is the word

I was trying to report him before he did murdered her, as I am yet another victim of his... I am surprised that nobody took it seriously - she would've been alive today, if somebody would help me back then!

Evil. Rest in peace Sarah

What drives me potty is the use of the passive tense to avoid responsibility. "Everard should never have been given a job"? Nope. "Police should never have employed Everard"? A small step closer. "Police Human Resources"? You've got to be joking. "Police Recruiters"? Nearly there. "Inspector Bloggs, in charge of Police Recruiting", ah, that's accountability.

If you aren't cop you're little people

What about the fact that more men have higher levels of violence against them especially domestic violence from woman 🤔

Yeah: why? 😏 Anybody tell me??!

Because nobody knew he was a killer obviously.

I know someone whos with someone whos a terrorist copper (not sure the proper title) u can see by the way ahe treats him shes a narcasist i mean who calls someone out of work for a bottle of lucazade someone entitled thats who and theyget these possitions of power, people are discusting these days

We aim to improve from an astonishingly low base? You think that its impossible to go lower? Complacency. Not a joking matter though.

Why was wayne couzens in the police?...same reason peanuts congregate in the church!...where there are lambs,there are lions!....they protect them because to bring one down could bring the whole house( of cards) down!...

vote reform. stop the boats. well well well.

failed to notice once but twice 😂😂😂😂failed to notice since the start of police, amount of cover ups and dirty corrupt things they do ans they say some of them are normal and good people no, everyone of them knows what goes on just don’t want the reputation or being exposed themselves, other week a drunk man died in custody of police and they covered it up like they didn’t do it to him, not just me who noticed this or notices the cover ups and corruption of the police and government there’s thousands of ppl who know about the exact situation itself.

acab

Remember that your personal safety is ultimately your own responsibility and not that of the police.

If she had been black nothing would've happened, they probably would have promoted him...
