An 18-year-old has appeared in court charged with the murder of a woman and two teenagers in Luton.

The bodies of Juliana Prosper, 48, Giselle Prosper, 13, and Kyle Prosper, 16, were found at a flat in Leabank, off Wauluds Bank Drive, on Friday.

Wearing a grey jumper, Nicholas Prosper, of Leabank, spoke to confirm his name and date of birth at Luton Magistrates' Court on Monday morning.

Prosper, the son and brother of the victims, has also been charged with a number of other offences, the court heard.

According to the court's list, Prosper is charged with purchasing or acquiring a 12-ball Nikko shotgun in Luton without holding a certificate on 12 September and possession of a shotgun on 13 September.

Prosper was also charged with possession of a bladed article, a kitchen knife, in a public place on Bramingham Road on 13 September.

The court's public gallery was full of family members during Prosper's short appearance in the dock.

Deputy district judge Robert Borwick remanded Prosper into custody and ordered him to appear at Luton Crown Court for a preliminary hearing on Wednesday.

A friend of the victim said Juliana Prosper "lived for her children" and said she was "a positive person who will be so terribly missed".

A statement on X, from the headteacher at Lea Manor High School, said they were "deeply shocked" by the death of Giselle Prosper.

"Giselle was a beautiful soul and a model pupil, she excelled in all her subjects and will be sorely missed, particularly by her friends in Year 9."

Kyle Prosper's school described the incident as "devastating" and offered "heartfelt condolences" to his family.

A statement issued by Cardinal Newman Catholic School said: "This is devastating news to all those who knew and loved Kyle and it will take some time to come to terms with the profound sense of loss.

"We know this will be a difficult time for students and staff and we will do all we can to support them with love and compassion.

"We extend our heartfelt condolences to Kyle's family on their immeasurable loss, to his friends and to all those in neighbouring schools who are coming to terms with their own loss."

I’d give me kid a clip round the ear if he tried killing me

[Triple killer Nicholas Prosper was "arrested by chance"
as he set off with the aim of carrying out
Britain's worst mass murder - hours after shooting dead his mother,
brother and sister, Metro reports.]

[arista]

[He was jailed for 49 years on Wednesday
for killing his mother, brother and sister.

He was apprehended by police before
he could carry out a mass shooting
at his old school, St Joseph's Catholic Primary School,
where he wanted to kill children and teachers,
before killing himself.

The sentencing judge said he wanted to
"unleash disaster" upon Luton.

He had a fascination with mass shooters,
idolising the perpetrator of the 2012 Sandy Hook
killings in the United States,
and his internet history included
him watching extremely violent content.]

…I’ve been following this case, a very evil young man…I’m glad that he’s in a place where he can’t take anymore lives because that was obviously his intention…to take many more lives…

I can't believe that this just happened out of the blue. This must have taken years to ferment. Why wasn't something done before it got to that point

[Livia]

I admire the judge for forcing him to face what he'd done in court. It takes a woman...

Scary to think he could still be released though, 49 years for murdering 2 people and wanting to murder more doesn't seem like enough, it should be a never released type deal surely

It doesn't seem enough. However, our system isn't the most lenient. Anders Breivik, who killed more than 70 people in Norway in 2011, got the Norwegian maximum sentence of 21 years. Norway's system deals with rehabilitation rather than punishment and is really successful, and I suppose it is for robbery or fraud. But 21 years for killing all those people? I think life should always mean their whole life and for horrific murders I'd like to see the murderer get a bullet in the head. These people will never be rehabilitated.

That's crazy, why does he deserve rehabilitation? Why does he get to have any kind of life after taking away life from so many people?

Hand-wringers, more interested in the criminal than in his countless victims, I guess. Do you remember it? He opened fire on young people at a youth camp on an island. They had nowhere to go to escape... it was awful. That and a car bomb. They can extend the sentence if they still think he's a risk. I mean, how can they NOT think he's still a risk?

I do remember it, horrible, I can't even imagine the horror and fear his victims went through. And yeah how can someone like that be rehabilitated? Besides the fact I don't believe they deserve a second chance, how can it be worth the risk? They're basically saying his rehabilitation is worth taking a chance with more innocent peoples lives

I agree some people will never be rehabilitated. It's like paedophiles, they will never be "better", I believe they should be removed from society forever. Right now though, all the rights seem to be with the perpetrator instead of the victim.
