feb 29, 2024 - Angiolini Inquiry

Description:

"Throughout this inquiry I have sought evidence and understanding of the depraved actions of Wayne Couzens but at no time have I, or the team with whom I have been so privileged to work, lost sight of the daily agony that continues for Sarah’s loving family and friends...

"While this inquiry has been a sorrowful undertaking, it has provided the inquiry team with the opportunity to get to know Sarah’s loving family.

"Their courage and determination that Sarah’s tragic death should bring about greater and earlier recognition of potential sexual and murderous predators, and thereby help improve the safety of women in public spaces, has been humbling.

"It has been an immense privilege to get to know them.

"The course of Sarah’s promising and loving life was brought to an appalling halt on 3 March 2021. Sarah was walking home along a busy London street when she was abducted, and then raped and murdered, by Couzens, an off-duty police officer serving with the Metropolitan Police Service."
