A public inquiry has heard that the man who fatally stabbed three people in Nottingham had previously watched footage of mass shootings. Lawyers stated that phone analysis showed Valdo Calocane viewed clips of attacks in New York and New Zealand alongside information on police powers. The hearing also revealed an earlier arrest warrant for the paranoid schizophrenic was marked as low priority before the killings occurred in June 2023.
