Leslie Bailey

Leslie Patrick Bailey (February 1953 - October 1993) was a child molester and murderer who was a member of a gang along with Sidney Cooke, Lennie Smith and Robert Oliver in the abduction, torture, sexual abuse and murders of at least three young boys in and around London in the 1980s.
He was sent to trial, along with Cooke and one other paedophile, for the 1984 murder of seven-year-old Mark Tildesley. He was already in prison for the 1985 killing of Jason Swift but was also jailed for Mark's murder in 1992. He was killed, aged 40, by two other prisoners in his prison cell in Cambridgeshire.
Bailey was known as Catweazle, a nickname associated with the fictional cartoon character.
