Breaking News: Stephen Lawrence Review Kicks Off Amid Plea for Witnesses to Come Forward Stephen Lawrence's mother, Baroness Doreen Lawrence, has urged witnesses to come forward with information about her son's murder as a new review begins. The review, triggered by a BBC investigation, is being conducted independently of the Metropolitan Police and will examine information held by the Met to identify any outstanding lines of inquiry. Baroness Lawrence said she hopes people who hold information about the murder will now feel able to talk, adding that there were "reasons why they felt they couldn't do it at the time". This is the last opportunity for full justice, Baroness Lawrence emphasized, stating that she cannot grieve until that is achieved. The review is a significant development in the case, which has been ongoing for decades. The new investigation comes after a BBC investigation revealed potential leads and inconsistencies in the original investigation. The College of Policing is leading the review, with investigators working to identify any outstanding lines of inquiry. This is a developing story, with further updates expected as the review progresses. *This is a developing story. Updates will be provided as more information becomes available.
