Lawrence murder suspect now working as a courier

A SUSPECT in the racist murder of Stephen Lawrence has been earning £3,600 a month as a courier since leaving prison, a court has heard.

Jamie Acourt, 46, covered his face with a scarf as he arrived at court yesterday, wearing Gucci sunglasses and a flat cap.

He faced a hearing about his failure to pay back £90,000 he made from a £3million drugs plot.

He refused to answer questions about the murder of 18-year-old Stephen, who was stabbed to death in Eltham, South East London, 30 years ago, and ran as he left the building.

Acourt was one of five men arrested.
