Met Police admit serial sex offender Simon Levy’s murder victim could have been saved

A senior Metropolitan police detective has admitted that Simon Levy’s second murder victim could have been saved, as the force faces questions over its handling of the serial sex attacker.

Levy, of Tottenham, north London, was found guilty by a jury at the Old Bailey on Friday for murdering Carmenza Valencia-Trujillo, 53, and Sheryl Wilkins, 39, five months apart last year. The killings came after he subjected a third woman to a brutal sex attack in the same car park where Ms Wilkins’ body was later found.
