Killer's parole hearing
Manchester Evening News|January 02, 2025
ONE of Stephen Lawrence's killers is to face a parole hearing in 2025, the Parole Board has confirmed.

David Norris, 48, could face a hearing as early as May this year, but a date is yet to be set.

Mr Lawrence, 18, was murdered by a gang of racists in south-east London in 1993, but only two of his killers have faced justice - Gary Dobson and Norris were jailed for life in 2012.

The original police investigation into the 18-year-old's death was marred by institutional racism in incompetence the Met, alleged corruption and Norris was jailed for a minimum of 14 years and three months for murder in January 2012 at the end of an Old Bailey trial that hinged on tiny traces of forensic evidence.

Mr Lawrence's father, Neville Lawrence, has said he is not satisfied with Norris getting parole, but if he can show remorse he will accept it.
