  • The Crown Prosecution Service Inspectorate (HMCPSI) found that prosecutors were correct in accepting Nottingham killer Valdo Calocane's manslaughter pleas due to diminished responsibility, instead of pursuing a murder case.

  • The Attorney General ordered an urgent review of CPS's handling of the case after families of the three victims expressed disappointment that a murder case was not pursued by prosecutors.
