Summary
British police urged additional victims of Simon Levy to come forward after confirming no further victims or deaths have yet been linked to the 40-year-old serial offender.
Two officers are now under watchdog investigation—one for gross misconduct and one for misconduct—over how Levy was handled while police also review whether monitoring failures let him keep attacking.
Levy was on bail and under police monitoring when he violently raped a woman in January 2025, then murdered Carmenza Valencia-Trujillo, 53, in March and Sheryl Wilkins, 39, five months later.
At least 10 women were assaulted by Levy on London public transport between 2023 and 2025, and BTP has already moved two officers to other roles for incompetence in those investigations.
The Met, BTP and CPS have all admitted failings in Levy's management from his 2021 sexual-assault conviction to his 2025 murder arrest, prompting calls for a multi-agency review of how repeat predators are tracked.
