NHS Trust Under Fire Over Calocane Case | London News
Description
The NHS trust overseeing Valdo Calocane’s mental health care—man behind Nottingham’s 2023 deadly attacks—is now under corporate manslaughter investigation after he killed three people while suffering from paranoid schizophrenia. Despite four prior hospitalizations and warnings from staff about his dangerous potential, Calocane was discharged in 2022 after missing appointments and going missing. A warrant for assaulting a police officer was active at the time of the attacks, prompting apologies from local police. The probe, led by Northumbria Police on behalf of Nottinghamshire Police, could bring severe penalties, while a public inquiry continues to examine systemic failures. The trust, previously rated needing major improvements by the Care Quality Commission, says it’s cooperating fully as the community awaits answers—and justice—for the victims’ families.
