Gregory S. Smith is an inmate on death row in the state of California..

Crime

After being fired as a teacher's aide for inappropriate behavior with children, Smith sought retaliation by killing an 8-year-old boy, Paul Bailly and leaving his body in the woods, where he started a fire.

His behavior as a teacher’s aide was inappropriate; he would play with  the children as if he were a child, but would get too rough. Defendant was particularly mean to eight-year-old Paul Bailly, a student at Darby Elementary  School. On two occasions he tied Paul up with jump ropes. Once Paul asked the school’s daycare director to fire defendant. Defendant overheard the request, and  said he was going to “get [Paul] back.

About 6:30 a.m. on March 23, 1990, Mary Bailly, Paul’s mother, dropped him off at Darby Elementary School. At 11:50 a.m., Captain Fred Baugher of the Ventura County Fire Department responded to a fire in the Black Canyon area near Simi Valley and discovered Paul’s body in the fire. Paul had been gagged with a cloth gag and duct tape. A set of handcuffs was found at the scene. According to supervising investigator James Allen, the burn pattern on the ground  and the condition of the body showed that someone had poured fire accelerant on
the corpse and set it on fire
