Today, we look at whether the system failed victims of the Nottingham attacks.
Families of the victims of the Nottingham attacks are calling for a public inquiry into the case. Valdo Calocane was given a hospital order on Thursday for killing Barnaby Webber and Grace O'Malley-Kumar, both 19, as well as Ian Coates, 65, in June. But Mr Webber's parents said they were "horrified" and "disgusted" there were no immediate plans for an inquiry.
Nottinghamshire Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust chief executive Ifti Majid said the organisation had "robustly" reviewed its treatment of Calocane between May 2020 and September 2022.
Nottinghamshire's police and crime commissioner Caroline Henry said the attacks were a tragedy that no-one could have foreseen. However, she said she was seeking reassurance from Nottinghamshire Police over outstanding warrants. She said she was confident the force delivered a good service overall but there was "always room for improvement".
James is joined by Chair of Norfolk and Suffolk NHS mental health trust and former inspector, Zoe Billingham, former director of public prosecutions, Lord Ken MacDonald and East Midlands today reporter, Emily Anderson.
And, three US troops have been killed in a drone attack on a US base in Jordan. But who was behind the attack? Our chief international correspondent Lyse Doucet drops into the studio to tell us more.
