Her “limbless torso” was later pulled from the River Wandle by contractors carrying out cleaning work.
Steven Sansom, 45, today pleaded guilty to murder and perverting the course of justice.
The monster killed Sarah in his home and chopped up her body using power tools.
He then scattered her remains across various locations in South London before cleaning up the crime scene.
His girlfriend Gemma Watts, 48, is also charged with murdering Sarah between March 7 and April 3 but she did not enter a plea today.
It can now be revealed Sansom was previously convicted of murder and was jailed for life with a minimum term of 20 years in 1999.
He stabbed popular cab driver Terrence Boyle, 59, in the throat and back before escaping with just £25 on Christmas Eve 1998.
