Mother of Nottingham Attack Victim Condemns BBC Panorama Episode

Emma Webber criticizes the documentary on her son's killer as 'shameful, cold, ill-judged' and demands accountability for perceived inaccuracies.

  • Emma Webber, mother of Barnaby Webber, has strongly criticized a BBC Panorama episode about the Nottingham attacks.
  • The documentary, titled 'The Nottingham Attacks: A Search For Answers,' explored the mental health background of the killer, Valdo Calocane.
  • Relatives of the victims claim the program contains inaccuracies and was overly sympathetic towards Calocane's family.
  • The families were not consulted or given a preview of the documentary, leading to significant distress and anxiety.
  • Calocane, diagnosed with paranoid schizophrenia, was sentenced to an indefinite hospital order after admitting manslaughter on the grounds of diminished responsibility.
