Sarah Everard cop shared sick meme to 7 colleagues showing ‘police guide from abduction to murder’ from crime scene

A COP guarding the site where Sarah Everard’s remains were found allegedly sent a sick meme about her kidnap and murder to seven colleagues. 

The Met PC shared a parody of the Highway Code showing a guide of the six stages from abduction to murder, it is claimed.

The meme shows an officer directing traffic and holding a hand up which reads: “Stop single girl.”

He then gives signals for different twisted actions, which ends in the murder and disposal of the body.

Sickened colleagues reported the probationer to bosses the next day and he was immediately moved off the inquiry and placed on restricted duties with no direct involvement with the public.

Sarah's family were informed about the vile joke made by the rookie cop last Thursday.

Met armed officer Wayne Couzens, 48, has been charged with the kidnap and murder of Sarah, 33.

He made his first appearance at the Old Bailey by video link yesterday from Belmarsh top security jail in south London - a week after police swooped on his home in Deal, Kent.

Members of Sarah’s daily joined the hearing in the Central Criminal Court by video link, according to court officials. 

Couzens was remanded in custody ahead of a plea hearing on July 9 at the same court.

A provisional trial date was set for October 25 and is expected to last for four weeks.

Sarah’s remains were found in a builder's bag in woods on a disused golf course at Great Chart, near Ashford, Kent, last Wednesday night.

A high-level internal inquiry has been launched by the Met and the matter has been referred to the Independent Office for Police Conduct.

The Met said the PC was working on the cordon at the scene in Kent.

Assistant commissioner Nick Ephgrave said: “The MPS expects its officers to behave professionally at all times and this includes how they use social media.

“I take allegations that any officer or officers have failed to observe these standards very seriously and have referred this matter to the IOPC.”

Commissioner Dame Cressida Dick rejected calls for her to quit, saying all women and men in the Met were appalled at what happened to Sarah.

But a source said: “There was one officer who found it worthy of making a joke about. It was disgraceful.”

Ex-Met detective chief inspector Mick Neville said “Being a frontline officer, dealing with crime and misery, often requires a gallows sense of humour to let off steam.

“But any decent officer knows the limits. Joking about a horrific murder and kidnap, whilst the family is grieving, is completely unacceptable.

“The last thing the Met needs is anything else to undermine the public’s trust in the force. This will do just that.”

It comes as the CPS considers charges against two Met cops who allegedly shared grotesque selfies on WhatsApp of the bodies of murdered sisters Bibaa Henry, 46, and Nicole Smallman, 27.

A cop is said to have superimposed his face on one of the sister’s while guarding the crime scene in Wembley, North West London.

The IOPC is also investigating six cops who allegedly saw but did not report the images.
