He then drove her to Kent, where he raped and strangled her before burning and hiding her remains.Indecent Exposure: Following his murder conviction, Couzens was also prosecuted for multiple prior incidents of indecent exposure dating between 2015 and 2021. In March 2023, he received an additional 19-month prison sentence for these offences.
