Whakarāpopototia te tuhinga:  Ka tirotirohia a Ariki Stevens mo nga whakapae e tautohetia ana mo te huna i te pirau o te pirihimana i roto i te tirotirohanga kohuru a Step-hen Lawrence. Inanahi i te pō, ka mea te Komihana Kōti Kōti o te Pirihimana (IPCC) ka tirotirohia e rātau ngā whakapae i kore te tumuaki o Met o mua e tuku i ngā mōhiohio matua ki te Rangahau Macpherson e pā ana ki te kohuru kino ā-iwi a te taiohi pango. I ahu mai te tirotirohanga i runga i te amuamu a te papa o Stephen, a Neville Lawrence. Ko Lord Stevens te tumuaki tuarua o te Pirihimana Metropolitan mai i te 1998 ki te 2000 <unk> i te wa e whakahiatohia ana te ripoata a Macpherson Inquiry <unk> i mua i te mahi e rima tau hei pirihimana nui rawa atu o te UK. 'Kōpeke-ake': Ka tirotirohia te tumuaki o mua o Met Police a Lord Stevens (māui) mō ngā whakapae mō te pōhēhē i runga i te whakamomori a Stephen Lawrence i ngā tau iwa tekau. I whakaarahia he tirotirohanga hou: I tukuna e Neville Lawrence, te papa o Stephen Lawrence i patua, he amuamu i te Oketopa o te tau kua hipa mo te ngoikoretanga o nga kaitohutohu matua i te Rangahau Macpherson. E pā ana te amuamu ki tētahi reta ki te Rangahau Macpherson i te tau 1998, i kī ai a Lord Stevens, kāore he apiha, he apiha o mua rānei i uru ki te tuku whakaaturanga i raro i te rangahau mo te pirau. I whakapaehia ko te reta he korero whakapohehe. Heoi anō, i te pō whakamutunga, i kī mai ngā pūtake e tata ana ki te kaitiaki o mua o Scotland Yard, i whakawātea ia i te tau kua hipa e Mark Ellison QC, te kaituhi o tētahi pūrongo mōhiohio mō ngā whakapae o te rēhia o Lawrence. I kii tetahi puna: <unk>Ko nga korero katoa e kii ana ko tetahi mai i te Met ka whai ki te pupuri i te pono mai i te Rangahau Macpherson i taua wa he tino teka. I te tau kua hipa i tuhituhi a Mark Ellison ki a Rangi Stevens kia kore ai ia e mahi i te he.<unk> Inanahi, i whakaatuhia e te Channel 4 News <unk> ngā taipitopito o te rangahau IPCC ki a Lord Stevens <unk> e kī ana i a ia e mea ana: <unk>Kei te tino āta haere, kāore au i te whakamana i ētahi atu p**p mō tēnei.<unk> I te whakahua i tētahi reta i riro i a ia mai i a Mr Ellison, i kīia a Lord Stevens: "Kāore tētahi e tohu ana i mahi koe i tētahi mea...
E whakapae ana a Mr Stevens i te kore tuku mōhiohio ki te uiui a Macpherson. I tenei ra i korero ia ki te Channel 4 News: 'Kaore au e mau ki tetahi atu p**p' He Kaitirotiro i te Komihana mai i te tau 1998 ki te 2000 i te wā i tuhia ai te pūrongo. Kua tata ki te 22 tau mai i te wā i patua ai a Stephen Lawrence i roto i tētahi whakaeke ā-iwi.
