Court of Appeal Upholds Indefinite Hospital Order for Nottingham Killer Valdo Calocane
May 14, 2024, 09:37 AM
The Court of Appeal has ruled that the sentence given to Valdo Calocane, who killed three people in Nottingham last year, was not 'unduly lenient'. Calocane was given an indefinite hospital order for the manslaughter of Barnaby Webber, Grace O'Malley-Kumar, and Ian Coates on June 13, 2023. The decision was upheld by three senior judges, including Lady Chief Justice Baroness Carr, despite appeals for a harsher sentence. The ruling has sparked frustration among the victims' families, who have criticized the criminal justice system.
