Mary Bell is a British woman who gained notoriety for committing murders as a child in the 1960s. Born in 1957, Mary Bell was convicted of killing two young boys in Newcastle upon Tyne, England, when she was just 11 years old. The first victim, Martin Brown, was four years old and was found strangled in an abandoned house in May 1968. The second victim, Brian Howe, was three years old and was found strangled and mutilated in a wasteland in July 1968.

Mary Bell was found guilty of manslaughter due to diminished responsibility, as it was determined that she had exhibited signs of psychopathy and had a troubled upbringing. She was sentenced to be detained at Her Majesty's pleasure, which is the juvenile equivalent of a life sentence. Bell was eventually released from prison in 1980 at the age of 23, and she has since lived under a series of pseudonyms to protect her identity.
