Violence Against Women Worsens Post-Everard Murder, Says Prosecutor

A new documentary and a damning report call for urgent police reforms as public trust falters.

The prosecutor in the Wayne Couzens trial, Tom Little KC, states violence against women and girls is worsening, not decreasing since the Sarah Everard murder.
Detective Chief Inspector Katherine Goodwin expresses concern over the Metropolitan Police's ability to regain public trust after the murder.
A new BBC documentary, 'Sarah Everard: The Search For Justice,' reveals unseen aspects of the case and the investigation.
The documentary airs days after a report by Lady Elish Angiolini highlighted missed opportunities to stop Couzens and called for a policing overhaul.
In the year following Everard’s murder, 138 women were killed by men in the UK, and an estimated 798,000 women experienced sexual assault.
