Valdo Calocane, who went on a stabbing rampage in Nottingham on the 13th of June, has been sentenced to indefinite detention in a high-security psychiatric facility after his plea of manslaughter on the grounds of diminished responsibility was accepted. Calocane, a paranoid schizophrenic, fatally stabbed two Nottingham University students, Barnaby Webber and Grace O'Malley-Kumar, and a school caretaker, shocking the nation and devastating the victims' families. Prior to the attacks, an arrest warrant for Calocane had been outstanding for nine months, a fact that has led to public and familial outcry over the police's failure to apprehend him sooner. Assistant Chief Constable Rob Griffin of Nottinghamshire Police admitted that the force could have done more. The families of the victims have expressed their belief that justice has not been served, with some stating that the police have 'blood on their hands'. Calocane had previously told doctors he was targeted by 'malign forces' and visited MI5's HQ to tell them 'stop controlling me' two years before the attacks.
