Simon Levy Appears at Old Bailey on Two Murder Charges With 2026 Trial Set

Prosecutors told the court the victims were found in similar positions during a complex joined inquiry.

Overview

  • The 40-year-old appeared via videolink, spoke only to confirm his identity, and was remanded ahead of a 23 February 2026 plea and case management hearing.
  • Prosecutor Tom Little KC said Carmenza Valencia‑Trujillo was allegedly killed during a sexual encounter in a largely disused block of flats on the Aylesbury Estate.
  • The court heard that Valencia‑Trujillo and Sheryl Wilkins were found five months apart in similar positions, a detail prosecutors said links the deaths.
  • Levy is charged with two murders as well as two counts of rape, grievous bodily harm and intentional strangulation relating to an alleged January 21 attack in Tottenham.
  • Police have joined the cases, set a June 2026 Old Bailey trial, and appealed for further victims or witnesses to contact the incident room or Crimestoppers.
