Shooting at school was killer's aim

A 19-YEAR-OLD man who murdered his family and was plotting a school shooting wanted to be the worst mass school killer the UK has seen, a court has heard.

- 

Nicholas Prosper, from Luton, Bedfordshire, plotted to carry out "killing for the sake of killing" at his former primary school, in a bid to become a notorious mass murderer.

Luton Crown Court heard that he had been planning his crimes for months before he shot his mother Juliana Falcon, 48, and siblings Giselle Prosper, 13, and Kyle Prosper, 16, at the flat the family shared in the town on September 13 last year. He carried out a test shot on a teddy bear in his bedroom before the killings, which also saw him stab his brother more than 100 times.
