‘ Ellie Costello expressed her frustration to the loss of innocent lives after new details emerged about .
Last month, he was convicted of killing Ian Coates, 65, Grace O’Malley-Kumar, 19, and Barnaby Webber, 19, after pleading guilty to three counts of manslaughter on the basis of diminished responsibility and three counts of attempted murder.
Labour MP Steve Reed was grilled on GB News after it was revealed that Calocane was diagnosed with paranoid schizophrenia and was discharged from NHS mental health services five times before the killings.
Ellie stated: “I’m sure you were just hearing from Mark White about the shocking report from the NHS about Valdo Calocane and the litany of failures in his care.
“He was discharged prematurely from his in-patient stays, he wasn’t taking his medication, the NHS were aware of that, that he posed a danger to society if something was not done.”

“This is another person, same as Axel Rudakabana just a few weeks ago, as we heard, a violent person with mental health problems who slipped through the cracks.”
Ellie raged: “How many more people have to die before something is done?”
The politician responded: “Well, it’s absolutely shocking. Firstly, I’d like to express again my sympathies to the families of those people who were so horrifically murdered by this individual.
“And of course, we have to learn lessons from what’s gone wrong. It looks like at every single stage of what should have been his care, there was failure.”

“We have to understand what that failure was, we’ve got the report today which points to many of those failures.
Reed continued:“ There will be learnings and lessons from that, that will be applied widely.”
“My colleague Wes Streeting, who was Health Secretary, he said he will order a further inquiry so that we can learn every single lesson and apply it.
“So what went wrong in this case can never go wrong again because it is a catalogue of catastrophic errors that led to the avoidable deaths of these three people.”
