Sarah Everard detective reveals moment she discovered killer Wayne Couzens was Met Police officer

The detective who led the investigation into the murder of Sarah Everard has recalled the moment she found out the main suspect in her disappearance was Wayne Couzens, a Metropolitan Police officer.

Detective Chief Inspector Katherine Goodwin was told by colleagues that Couzens worked for the force moments before officers arrived at his house in Kent to question him.
