Victims' families speak out after double killer jailed
13 Aug
Summary
- Double killer jailed for life for two murders and a rape.
- Killer's victims' families express unimaginable loss.
- Police and CPS apologize for blunders letting killer free.
The families of murder victims and a rape survivor have powerfully described the profound impact of Simon Levy's crimes. Levy, 40, received a mandatory whole life sentence at the Old Bailey on Wednesday, ensuring he will never be released from prison.
Levy was convicted of murdering Carmenza Valencia-Trujillo, aged 53, in March 2025. Just five months later, he killed Sheryl Wilkins, aged 39, in the same Tottenham car park where he had previously raped another woman earlier in the year.
The severe sentence comes after both the Metropolitan Police and the Crown Prosecution Service issued apologies. These apologies acknowledged a series of critical errors and disastrous decisions that regrettably left Levy at liberty to commit further atrocities.
