EXCLUSIVE: Met Police will track back over 30 years of cold cases with a detailed timeline showing where Wayne Couzens was EVERY DAY to see if Sarah Everard's killer can be linked to any of them
- Detectives are drawing up timelines to see if Couzens is connected to crimes
- The research will establish dates and locations for him over the past 30 years
- Nature of his appalling crimes against Sarah Everard have prompted probe
Detectives investigating whether killer cop Wayne Couzens has committed any further offences in his past are looking as far back as 30 years into his history - and seeing if his movements match any unsolved cases.
Officers from his old Metropolitan Police force are understood to be compiling timelines of the rapist murderer's activities over the past three decades.
MailOnline has learned detailed charts will show dates Couzens, 48, was at different locations and analysis will be done as to whether they correspond with relevant unsolved cases in those areas.
It means the killer's time with the Territorial Army, Kent Police and Dungeness Nuclear Power plant will all come under renewed scrutiny.
Couzens will never be freed from prison after he was sentenced to a whole life order for kidnapping, murdering and raping Sarah Everard.
A source told MailOnline: 'The Met police are going to be drawing up timelines to try and establish if he was anywhere relevant to any cold cases.
'If he has done anything else, they will find it and bring him to justice.
'They are going to go back as far as 30 years and work out as far as they can everywhere he has been. If he has done anything, they will find out.'

Currently it is known that Kent Police do not believe he is connected to any further cases in its force area.
But Couzens is known to have committed an indecent exposure, driving round naked from the waist down in his car, when he served with them in 2015.
He has also been identified as being responsible for carrying out the same offence at a McDonald's restaurant days before he targeted Miss Everard.
On March 3 he dressed in his Met Police uniform and staged a fake arrest as she walked home from her friend's house in Clapham, south London.
Couzens handcuffed her and put her in the back seat of his car before driving 80 miles to Kent where he raped and murdered her.
Days later he bought petrol and burned her body before attempting to hide her remains in woods near land he owned.
The fact he was confident enough to drive so far after snatching her has led criminologists to conclude he must have carried out similar crimes before.
And it is feared he may have targeted prostitutes or homeless people, whose disappearance may not have been picked up immediately.
The Met said after his Old Bailey sentencing on Thursday that there was nothing to suggest so far his connection to any crimes as serious as Miss Everard's killing.

Today it would not be drawn on how it would be looking into Couzens's past.
A spokeswoman provided the same statement, urging any potential victims to come forward.
She said: 'As you would expect we continue to make enquiries to establish whether he has been involved in other criminal offences.
'As these investigations are ongoing we are unable to go into further detail although, at this time, we have not identified anything that is of the same level of seriousness as the crimes he has been sentenced for.
'We are keen to hear from anyone who may have information about any criminality they believe Couzens was involved in.'
Born in Dover, Kent, in 1972, Couzens was the eldest of two boys, whose father ran a body shop and garage.
The brothers joined their father's business after leaving school, with a former receptionist at the garage describing Couzens as kind, thoughtful and charming
She said earlier in the year: 'There was no sign he could be like that. Wayne was lovely to work with. He was a really nice chap. He was thoughtful and friendly and got on with his work.
'I was the only lady who worked there because it was a garage, but he was always polite and respectful towards me. When he was arrested for the poor girl's murder I was completely shocked.
Her husband agreed and said Couzens actions in killing Sarah were a 'mystery'.
After his time in his father's garage, he became a police officer, though he first served as a volunteer Special Sergeant between 2005 and 2009.
He was an army reservist for two years before, in 2011, finally being accepted by the Civil Nuclear Constabulary an armed police force tasked with guarding the country's atomic power network.
Couzens went through firearms training before being posted to the Sellafield reprocessing site in Cumbria, where he spent eight months.
He then transferred to the Dungeness Nuclear Power station close to home in Kent and, after seven years of service without any issues, he transferred to the Met.
But after seven years of unblemished service with the force he applied for a transfer to the Metropolitan Police.
There he served in the Parliamentary and Diplomatic Protection Group due to his qualifications as a trained firearms officer.
