Portrait of Dr Neville Lawrence ahead of the 30th anniversary of his son's murder, Ministry of Justice,102 Petty France, London, England, UK.
Dr Neville Lawrence, ahead of Stephen Lawrence Day on Saturday 22nd April 2023. Stephen Lawrence was brutally murdered in a racially motivated attack at a bus stop in south London. Initially, six perpetrators were arrested for his murder but released without charge, and a subsequent private prosecution by the Lawrence‘s family failed to secure any convictions. In 1998 a public inquiry headed by Sir William Macpherson concluded the investigation was incompetent and the Metropolitan Police Force was institutionally racist. In 2012, two of the original perpetrators were convicted of his murder following a partial revocation of the rule against double jeopardy.
