Shelli Ezim said that she felt “embarrassed” to hear that her son Joseph had stabbed someone in a church.

Two people with Paranoid schizophrenia stabbed the members of the public in separate attacks before the killings of Waldo Calcain in Nottingham – and all were in care of the same NHS Trust, the BBC has found.

In 2023, six people were injured by six people in Nottinghamshire.

Within weeks, Calocaine – who has paranoid schizophrenia – killed Baranbi Weber, Grace O’Mali -Kumar and Ian Kots on 13 June 2023 on 13 June 2023.

Nottinghamshire Healthcare NHS Trust has been criticized on the care of Calocaine, and in response to the BBC findings, they “apologize to the affected people for any aspect of our care, who were not high levels of our patients”.

On 9 April 2023, Ejom-KOper stabbed a worshiper, leaving Easter Sunday service at St. Stephen’s Church in Snehin.

The BBC has spoken to a person in the 40s, who survived. He did not wish to interview.

Shelli said as a teenager, her son was in care of children and teenage mental health services in Nottingham.

“I regularly started going to her room and I would find a knife … I found an ax, my kitchen knife would often be in her room,” she said.

Shelli said that he would take pictures of weapons, and will inform the police and mental health services whenever he comes to him.

According to Shelli, when the Ezim-Cupper turned 18, things deteriorated on a large scale.

During the grip of a psychological episode, he left the Highbury Hospital – where he was due to being fragmented – to kill him before killing a friend.

He was then run by the Hospital – Nottinghamshire Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust for three months in July 2022, but Shelli said she said she told the employees that they were not ready to leave.

“He was not well when he was released,” he said. “There was no way that he was going to take his medicine and I told him that … it was really waiting for a bomb to be just a time.”

The EASOM-KOper was placed in a housing managed by the Housing Association, but Shelli said he was “unwelling” in seven months, and was not taking his medicine during the care of the trust’s community team.

When she knew about her son’s knife attack, shelli misses her shocks and frustration.

“I just knew that it was going to happen,” he said.

“I am sorry that this happened. I am really. And as a mother, she is my son and she did it and it is a great shame to me.”

He said that if his son’s crazy schizophrenia was taken more seriously, the stabbing could be prevented.

“It is disgusting that it either takes someone to lose his life or someone feels ‘Oh, hang on a minute, maybe we need to do something here’.

He said, “Mental health services in Nottingham have disappointed him regularly and systematically.”

Easom-Cooper was sentenced to a hospital order in December 2023.

The BBC has seen a report in contact with Dietlin by the trust.

It was involved in violent incidents with dietaline employees and diagnosed Paranoid schizophrenia during a four -week stay at Hiibari Hospital in June 2022.

The report states that his family cannot “express the desire that he stayed in the hospital for some time”.

It states that, after his discharge, he took his drug “very irregularly”.

The family, the report stated, “Dietlin’s behavior was” in a good position to inspect the subtle changes “which indicated that he was unwell”, but when the community workers visited, they concluded that “there were no signs of psychosis”.

Dietlin stabbed his first victim on 8 February 2023, and the report stated that he was visited by employees for a drug drop the next day.

On 11 and 12 February, he stabbed four more people.

Two weeks later, the trust held a “initial management review”, of which he “did not identify any learning”, according to the report.

In a statement, the trust stated that these reviews are “completed directly to establish whether the entire investigation is being completed during immediate learning”.

Earlier this year, NHS England reviewed Calcain’s care, found major failures by the trust.

The dietalin incident between 2019 and 2023 highlighted the incident of dietalin between 15 under the current care of the trust or which was discharged from the trust.

Independent review concluded that the trust has “absence of a strong approach to risk management”.

Keith Grafton said that he did not know the history of dietaline’s mental health issues, nor was he fragmented earlier.

He believes that the decision to discharge his attacker into the community was “a major failure” by the trust, which he blamed for what he happened to him.

“If they did their work properly, it would not have happened,” he said.

Nottingham was brought to a stay on 13 June 2023 in view of the attacks carried out by Calocaine, which was sentenced to a hospital order in January 2024.

He was rescued four years before his attacks, but was discharged by the trust as he “disintegrated” from his community mental health team in September 2022.

This meant that there was no contact between Calcane and Mental Health Services, or their GP, about nine months before the murders.

The BBC panorama documentary and NHS Commission report revealed the details of Calcain’s medical records, also stated that “System Got It wrong” with the triple killer.

Shelli said she felt that the opportunities missing in Calcain’s care reflected her son’s experience.

He said: “When I became aware of the facts, I thought it could easily be Joseph … I just remember that ‘you know what? I am happy that he is in the hospital’.

“Those poor people had reduced their lives in such disgusting ways without any reason, just because we are not making appropriate time and effort in ensuring that people are enough to walk on the streets.”

Marjori Wallace, CEO of Mental Health Charity Sane, said that the BBC findings show that the Trust had learned a lesson from dietalin and economy, then Calcane’s killings could be stopped.

He said, “Their failures were failure to listen to the families, failure to see the person … and then the failures to protect both the patient and the public very quickly, when they are very ill,” he said.

‘Apologize to affected people’

Neil Hadgel, a lawyer representing the families of the victims of Callocaine, said the BBC’s findings have shown that “very little ever resonates as it should be with mental health trusts, and potentially he had effectively learned in years, not the events of 13 June 2023 would have happened”.

He said, “The families keep angry at the incredibly depressed and unnecessary losses of the lives of their loved ones,” he said.

Dr, Deputy Chief Executive Officer and Executive Medical Director of NHS Trust. Su Elcock said in a statement, “I want to assure people that after any serious incident, we do an inquiry to identify any field for learning and improvement.

“We apologize to the affected people for any aspect of our care that were not high levels of our patients.”

The statement stated that the trust “a more strong patient discharge policy and a sharp focus on assessing and managing any risk patients.

Dr. Alcock said: “We have made significant changes to improve family engagement, and the participation of patients and their families and our family contact teams are all included in all ideas.”

On Thursday, the government confirmed the public inquiry into the attacks, and will report back within two years with recommendations to prevent similar incidents.
