Wayne Couzens, the police officer who raped and murdered Sarah Everard, has pleaded guilty to a string of indecent exposure offences.

The 50-year-old admitted a flashing incident in November 2020 and two in February 2021, which was just days before he abducted and killed Ms Everard from a street in south London. 

Appearing over videolink from jail for a hearing at the Old Bailey on Monday, he also pleaded not guilty to an indecent exposure charge relating to an alleged incident in June 2015.

This plea was accepted by prosecutors, who also chose to leave several other allegations against Couzens on file, meaning they will not proceed to trial.
