Attorney General refers Nottingham triple killer's "unduly lenient" hospital order to UK's Court of Appeal.

Nottingham triple killer Valdo Calocane's sentence to an indefinite hospital order will be referred to the UK's Court of Appeal for being "unduly lenient", the Attorney General has said. Calocane, 32, was found to be suffering from paranoid schizophrenia at the time of the killings and pleaded guilty to manslaughter by diminished responsibility. The Attorney General, Victoria Prentis, announced the decision to refer the case to the Court of Appeal after receiving complaints from the public about whether it was a suitable punishment.
