A teen triple murderer who slaughtered his own family could have his sentence increased to a whole-life order at the Court of Appeal today.
Nicholas Prosper was jailed for a minimum term of 49 years – less the 188 days he had already spent in custody – in March after killing his mother, Juliana Falcon, 48, and siblings Giselle Prosper, 13, and Kyle Prosper, 16. He admitted the murders of his family at their home in Luton, Bedfordshire, on September 13 2023 and also admitted to plotting a mass shooting at his former primary school in the town.
The Solicitor General referred his sentence to the Court of Appeal as “unduly lenient” in April, with a spokeswoman for the Attorney General’s Office claiming that it believed Prosper “ought to have been given a whole-life order”.
