Damning evidence of racism in uniform
Article Abstract:
An inquiry headed by Sir William Macpherson of Cluny into the police handling of the investigation into the murder of black teenager Stephen Lawrence in Apr 1993 has been completed. The inquiry team will now write its report, which is expected to be available by Feb 1999. This report will also address the wider issue of dealing with racially motivated crime, and is likely to mark a turning point in the policing of ethnic minority communities in the UK.

Kennedy has come to an end. He endeared himself to many Americans when, at the age of only three, he saluted at his father's funeral.
