Levi Bellfield (born Levi Rabbetts;[3] 17 May 1968)[4] is an English serial killer, sex offender, rapist, kidnapper, and burglar. He was found guilty on 25 February 2008 of the murders of Marsha McDonnell and Amélie Delagrange[5] and the attempted murder of Kate Sheedy, and sentenced to life imprisonment.[5] On 23 June 2011, Bellfield was further found guilty of the murder of Milly Dowler.[6] On both occasions, the judge imposed a whole life order, meaning that Bellfield will serve the sentence without the possibility of parole.[7][8] Bellfield was the first prisoner in history to have received two whole life orders.
