Gary Dobson and David Norris murdered Stephen Lawrence: corrupt police escape
STEPHEN Lawrence was murdered by Gary Dobson and David Norris. It was 18 years ago that Lawrence – black – was murdered by Gary Dobson and David Norris. For 18 years Gary Dobson and David Norris lied and lied and lied. The jury at the Old Bailey considered new forensic evidence and damned them by it. They did murder Stephen Lawrence.
The minute blood stain on Dobson’s jacket did come from Stephen Lawrence.
Duwayne Brooks, Stephen’s best friend who ran for his life that night in Eltham, tweeted: “Some justice at last”.
The Metropolitan Police – the institutionally racist Met Police – failed Stephen Lawrence. Why? Because he was black and his murderers were white.
After two failed prosecutions, one brought by Stephen’s parents, Doreen and Neville Lawrence, justice has been served.
Now. Why did the police fail to convict Norris, the son of a known villain? And why are none of them in front of a jury?

Jamie Acourt, one of the five named suspects of killing black teenager Stephen Lawrence, leave after giving evidence at the public inquiry into the racist murder. Of the five, Neil Acourt, Gary Dobson and Luke Knight were acquitted at the Old Bailey in 1996 after the collapse of a private prosecution brought by Stephen's parents, Neville and Doreen Lawrence. The charges against Jamie Acourt and David Norris were dropped before the case came to trial. See PA story INQUIRY Lawrence. Photo by Rosie Hallam/PA
