An inquiry into the Nottingham triple killer has heard how he was free to carry out his killing spree after mental health workers feared detaining him would be racist.
Valdo Calocane killed teenage students Grace O’Malley-Kumar and Barnaby Webber and 65-year-old caretaker Ian Coates in June 2023.
He then called his brother and told him: “This will be the last time I speak to you. Take the family out of the country.”
When asked if he was going to do something stupid, Calocane replied: “It is already done.”
Prosecutors, police and medical professionals will be scrutinised by the two-year public inquiry, chaired by retired senior judge Deborah Taylor, which is expected to hear from more than 100 witnesses.
