Rampage victim’s family reveal his untouched room

THE bedroom of Nottingham rampage victim Barnaby Webber has been left untouched in a tribute to him, his family have revealed.

Barnaby, 19, was stabbed to death alongside fellow student Grace O’MalleyKuma­r, also 19, last June.

Paranoid schizophre­nic Valdo Calocane fatally knifed a third victim, school caretaker

Ian Coates, 65, before mowing down three pedestrian­s.

Barnaby’s bedroom at the family home in Taunton, Somerset, is filled with his prized possession­s including a cricket bat and sports shirts, a BBC film reveals.

Younger brother Charlie, 16, was close to tears as he went into it. He told the BBC crew: “It’s quite weird coming in here because no one really comes in here.

“It’s quite tough because, obviously, I spent a lot of time in here with him. Literally everything here is how he left it. No one has touched anything.” The documentar­y also revealed Grace would leave loving messages to her parents at home in Woodford, North East London.

Dr Sanjoy Kumar sobbed as his wife Sinead O’Malley read one out. Sinead said: “She used to write little notes and leave them in my handbag or my pillow or in our bedside tables. She was a very affectiona­te child.”

Calocane was handed an indefinite hospital order after admitting manslaught­er on the grounds of diminished responsibi­lity.

The victims’ families are furious at the sentence. They are demanding the Government introduces three new tiers of murder charges – first degree, second degree and manslaught­er.

The Big Cases: The Nottingham Attacks is available on BBC iPlayer.
