Carrie Johnson opened up about the time she was drugged by John Worboys in his black cab as a 19-year-old student saying she was left feeling like she wanted to die after the encounter10:21, 20 May 2026Carrie Johnson has opened up about how she was left feeling like she 'wanted to die' after horror black-cab rapist John Worboys gave her spiked alcohol after he picked her up in his taxi when she was a student.Johnson, the wife of former Prime Minister Boris Johnson, was 19 years old when Worboys picked her up after a night out in Chelsea, in 2007. She said the driver approached her while she waited for the night bus and said he'd drop her home even though she did not have enough money for the fare, because he didn't "like girls being alone late at night".She said the driver claimed he had won money at a casino and offered her a glass on champagne to celebrate, which she poured onto the floor. Johnson recalled Worboys then offered her a shot of vodka, which she later found out had been spiked, and drank it.READ MORE: Carrie Johnson warns there could be '1,000 if not more' John Worboys black cab rapist victimsREAD MORE: Victim of black cab rapist John Worboys vows to keep him in jailJohnson said she had a "lucky escape" as she passed out when she got home and not inside Worboys' cab. Speaking to Good Morning Britain, she recalled the moment her mum saw her after getting back home.Johnson said: "Pretty much as soon as I opened the front door, my mum described me as being like a ragdoll. I just remember telling my mum that I wanted to die, it was so bad."She added that Worboys offered her his phone number as she stepped out of the cab, which would later become evidence for the police. Johnson said: "I cannot remember it as well because I can remember everything from the beginning but I know that I got out ok because I remember him giving me his phone number."So just before I got home, when he stopped the cab, he said 'listen, if you ever need a ride again give me a ring. I don't like girls being alone at night,' obviously thinking 'I haven't got her this time. Maybe I'll get her next time.'"Worboys was first jailed in 2009 for 19 sexual offences linked to attacks on 12 victims between October 2006 and February 2008 in London, and given an indefinite sentence for public protection with a minimum term of eight years. The publicity around the case led further victims to come forward, and Worboys was charged with more crimes dating between 2000 and 2008, which he admitted.Johnson also told Good Morning Britain that more woman have come forward to her since the release of a miniseries about Worboys' victims - named Believe Me - was released. She revealed that women have since messaged her on Instagram "telling me that they think they are in Worboys' cab too".She also claimed that there could be "up to 1,000, if not more" victims. She said: "The truth is that his crimes span from, what we know, from 2000 up to when he was convicted in 2009. And he was a cab driver for that duration, out potentially every night in his cab, so there could be up to 1,000 if not more than that."Article continues belowIn December 2017, a Parole Board panel decided he was ready for release, sparking a legal challenge by two of his victims that successfully got the decision overturned.Worboys was denied parole for a second time, last week, after a board ruled he remained a threat to women. He will be considered for parole again in around two years' time.
