On March 5th, the Nottingham Inquiry into Valdo Callican's deadly attacks is hearing new details from his former flatmate, known only as Christopher. They shared a place starting in September 2021, and Christopher described Callican as initially quiet and reserved. Over time, things changed around December 2021 or January 2022. Callican grew more withdrawn, made odd noises from his room, and left hygiene messes like shaved hair in the sink, which bothered everyone. Tensions bowled over into physical fights, including headlocks and wrestling matches. Christopher called police twice after assaults, once when Callican blocked him from leaving, and again after a punch-up in the kitchen. Earlier in September 2021, officers used a mental health warrant to detain him. Body camera footage showed him resisting, even complimenting an officer after being tazered. Today wraps up the second week with more flatmate testimony and a university classmates account, shedding light on Callican's past before the June.
