A police officer has on Friday admitted murdering tragic Sarah Everard after he snatched her off the street and raped her.
Wayne Couzens, 48, had already pleaded guilty to kidnap and rape and accepted responsibility for the 33-year-old's killing.
But the Met Police officer today admitted murder via video link at the Old Bailey
Sarah's family and Met Police chief Dame Cressida Dick watched from the public gallery as the monster whispered his formal plea.
Dame Cressida said she had spoken to Sarah's family and told them "how very sorry I am for their loss, for their pain and their suffering".
She said the force was "sickened, angered and devastated by this man's crimes - they are dreadful".
A two-day sentencing has been set for September 29 - with the court told Couzens knows he "deserves" to live with the "burden for the rest of his life".
