Nottingham attacks: Valdo Calocane to be detained at high-security hospital

Calocane sentenced after pleading guilty to three counts of manslaughter on grounds of diminished responsibility

A man has been sentenced to be detained at a high-security hospital for killing two university students and a school caretaker, and attempting to kill three other people, in a spate of attacks in Nottingham last year.

Valdo Calocane, 32, who goes by the name Adam Mendes, denied murdering Grace O’Malley-Kumar, Barnaby Webber and Ian Coates but admitted manslaughter on the grounds of diminished responsibility due to suffering from paranoid schizophrenia.
