Doreen Lawrence recently received an apology from the Metropolitan police commissioner, Mark Rowley, for not answering questions that arose from BBC investigation into her son’s murder.Doreen Lawrence recently received an apology from the Metropolitan police commissioner, Mark Rowley, for not answering questions that arose from BBC investigation into her son’s murder.
A spokesperson for the Met said: “While we have not identified any additional viable lines of inquiry, recognising the concerns held by Baroness Lawrence and the significance of this investigation we will be asking an outside force to review our approach.”The original investigation into Stephen’s death was hampered by institutional racism in the Met, and claims that corrupt officers had sought to protect Norris, whose father, Clifford Norris, was a notorious drug dealer.
Two witnesses said White had confessed to being present during the attack and one, his stepfather, was not spoken to by police until 20 years after the murder because officers had previously misidentified him.
