Stephen Lawrence detective says new force should take over Met investigation

Exclusive: Clive Driscoll, who won convictions of two of Lawrence’s murderers, calls for different force to pursue remaining killers

The detective who brought two of Stephen Lawrence’s killers to justice says the pursuit of the remaining murderers should be stripped from Scotland Yard and handed over to a new force.

Former DCI Clive Driscoll led the investigation that in 2012 saw David Norris and Gary Dobson convicted of the murder, 19 years after they and a gang of at least three more youths attacked and stabbed Lawrence in a racist attack.
