LAWRENCE COP WAS 'OUTRIGHT RACIST'

ONE of the detectives who bungled the investigation into Stephen Lawrence's murder described young Jamaican heritage men as "ignorant and uneducated".

Mick Tomlin said a description of the Windrush generation being involved in prostitution, stealing and drug dealing "reflected exactly" his experience.

The racist ex-detective constable also accused Stephen's mum Baroness Doreen Lawrence of lying.

Tomlin was involved in the initial failed probe after Stephen, 18, was stabbed by a racist gang at a bus stop in Eltham, South East London, in 1993.

Six years later an inquiry branded the ex-cop "incompetent, condescending and casual" and guilty of "serious neglect".

Tomlin made the comments from his home in Mojacar, Spain, prior to his death at 82 in 2022.

When that inquiry began in 2015, Tomlin wrote: "I'm being investigated for corruption.
