Sheila LaBarre (born Sheila Kay Bailey on July 4, 1958) is an American murderer and possible serial killer.

She was sentenced to two consecutive life sentences, with no prospect of parole after being convicted of killing two men, Kenneth Countie and Michael Deloge, in Epping, New Hampshire.

At the time of the crimes, LaBarre lived in Epping (Rockingham County) on a farm.

She regularly enticed younger men to her farm, where she would torture and control them.

At her trial she claimed she was an angel, sent by God to punish pedophiles.

She accused the two men she killed of being pedophiles.

Her case is featured on the Season 5, Episode 3, titled "Crazy in Love", from the show Deadly Sins.

LaBarre was born Sheila Kaye Bailey in Alabama in 1958.

She has a sister, Lynn Noojin.

She had a difficult, abusive upbringing, as she, her sister and mother were sexually, physically, and verbally abused by her alcoholic father, and he would bring other men over to partake in sexually assaulting Sheila.

After Bill's death, Sheila LaBarre inherited his farm.

His children from a previous relationship attempted to contest the will to get money and property, but were informed they had a 50/50 chance of success and would have to pay $50,000 upfront.
