Leslie Bailey

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Leslie Bailey, who was nicknamed Catweazle, was an evil paedophile and murderer who was involved along with Sidney Cooke and a few others in the murders of at least three young boys in and around London in the 1980s.

He was put to trial, along with Cooke and one other paedophile, for the 1984 murder of seven year old Mark Tildesley. Bailey was the only one charged with that murder. He was already in prison for the 1985 killing of Jason Swift but was also jailed for Mark's murder in 1992. Two inmates of Bailey's were so incensed at his actions, that they killed him in his cell in October 1993.
