Overview
- The families of the Nottingham attack victims are calling for individual accountability for doctors involved in the care of Valdo Calocane, who killed three people in June 2023.
- An independent report highlights repeated failures by Nottinghamshire Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust, including not enforcing medication despite clear risks posed by Calocane.
- Calocane, diagnosed with paranoid schizophrenia, was sectioned four times but discharged without adequate follow-up, leading to the fatal attacks.
- Victims' families are urging a statutory public inquiry with full powers to compel testimony, emphasizing the need for systemic and individual accountability.
- Health Secretary Wes Streeting has pledged to ensure recommendations from the report are implemented nationwide to prevent similar tragedies.
