A "serial predator" accused of murdering two sex workers and assaulting another had a link on his computer to a website with "rape" in its title, a court was told.
Simon Levy, 40, is on trial for the murders of Carmenza Valencia-Trujillo, 53, and Sheryl Wilkins, 39, and the attack on a third woman. Prosecutor Tom Little KC informed the Old Bailey that a document titled ‘sex’ was discovered on Levy’s computer. This document contained a web address for a site that, when searched with terms like ‘gang’ and ‘rape’, led to a section labeled ‘forced porn videos’.
There is no record of Levy having accessed the website directly using the computer or any other seized devices; the link was simply saved. The surviving victim, a 35-year-old woman who cannot be named, testified last week that she believed she was going to die after Levy allegedly broke her collarbone, smothered, and raped her in a Tottenham car park in January of the previous year.
Levy has 13 previous convictions for sexual assault, six of which reportedly occurred during the period he is accused of committing the recent offenses. Ms. Valencia-Trujillo's body was discovered in a disused block of flats in Southwark two months after the initial attack. Levy was arrested on April 1, at which point the ‘sex document’ and others, including one titled ‘my sex record’, were found. The latter contained a list of women Levy claimed to have had sex with, often referred to by descriptions such as ‘witch’, ‘Irish traveller’, and ‘Somalian lady’ rather than by name.
Mr. Little stated that the list was created in May 2024 and last modified on the evening Ms. Valencia-Trujillo died on March 16 of the same year. The final entry, number 19, allegedly described a woman as an "Average build middle age Latina - J-Lo booty - crazier chick."
Five months after Ms. Valencia-Trujillo's death, while Levy was on bail, he allegedly murdered Sheryl Wilkins, 39, leaving her body in the same car park where the earlier rape is said to have occurred.
Levy’s defense attorney, Siobhan Grey KC, informed the court on Monday that Levy had decided not to give evidence during his trial. He has pleaded not guilty to two counts of murder, two charges of rape, grievous bodily harm with intent, and non-fatal suffocation. The trial is ongoing.
