Stephen Lawrence
artdoc July=1994

The Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) has decided that there is not
enough evidence to prosecute the white youths accused of the
racist murder of 18 year-old Stephen Lawrence in Eltham, south
London in April 1993 (see Statewatch vol 3, no 3). Two youths
were originally charged with Stephen's murder, but the case
against them was dropped when the CPS decided there was
insufficient evidence. At the inquest into Stephen's murder, last
December, dramatic new evidence was presented identifying three
new suspects. A spokeswoman for the CPS said that after studying
the evidence it had decided against pressing charges. Stephen's
family may now bring a private prosecution against the suspects.
