Since Stephen Lawrence was stabbed in a racist attack by a group of young white men on 22 April 1993, in Eltham, southeast London, five suspects have long been publicly named as linked to the murder
A murder suspect in the Stephen Lawrence case was convicted of carrying a machete near the scene of the racist killing.
White, who died aged 50 in 2021, was named last year as a sixth suspect in the case. He was arrested twice but never charged due to lack of evidence. Brothers Neil, 47, and Jamie Acourt, 46, have served time for drug dealing. Luke Knight, 46, has stayed free. The terms of reference for a new review of the case are currently being agreed with Stephen’s parents, Baroness Doreen and Dr Neville Lawrence, and Mr Brooks, who was also a victim of the attack.
