Graphic police WhatsApp message said Nottingham victims were ‘properly butchered’

The mum of a student who was stabbed to death in Nottingham has criticised the ‘barbaric’ WhatsApp messages about the attack sent by police officers.

Barnaby Webber and Grace O’Malley-Kumar, both 19, were killed as they walked home from a night out by 32-year-old paranoid schizophrenic Valdo Calocane last June.

Calocane then went on to flag down and kill caretaker Ian Coates, 65.

Barnaby and Grace’s parents have reacted with ‘disgust’ after Sky News revealed ‘disgusting’ WhatsApp messages sent by police officers in the aftermath of the stabbings.
