Michael Weir (born 1966) is a British double murderer and serial burglar who was the first person in British history to have been convicted of the same crime twice. In 1999, he was jailed for the murder of 78-year-old war veteran Leonard Harris.

Upon Weir's conviction at the Old Bailey in December 2019, judge Justice McGowan told the jury that they had made "legal his
