The wife of killer cop Wayne Couzens silently watched him be jailed for the rest of his life remotely on a court camera feed.

Olena Couzens logged in to view the two-day hearing at the Old Bailey from an unknown location.

The mother-of-two was believed to be among others unable to get to court but wanted to follow the sentencing.

Her husband was sentenced to a whole life order for kidnapping, raping and murdering Sarah Everard and will never be freed.

Couzens stood with his head bowed throughout the sentencing hearing and did not look up as he was ordered by the judge to stand.

He shook slightly as he was jailed in front of his victim's family, who calmly looked on from the well of the court.

Sarah Everard's parents Jeremy and Susan clasped hands and hugged police officers after Couzens shuffled out of the dock to be taken down to the cells.

Olena's sister-in-law says the family still don't understand why he murdered her and their ‘heads are spinning’ from trying to come to terms with it.

Tetyana Obukhova, 39, who is the older sister of Olena, told MailOnline: ‘I don’t know why he’d done what he’s done, my head has been spinning for days, weeks while I was trying to understand it.

‘I don't know the reasons that made him do it, and I'm not going to speculate.

‘He must serve quite a severe punishment for what he’s done.’

Ms Obukhova said her sister, Couzens' shattered wife of 15 years, was still living in the UK and she didn't know if she was planning to move with the couple's children back to Ukraine.
