The BBC has found the Met Police seriously mishandled key inquiries related to him
Matthew White was caught on a police surveillance camera during the first failed investigation of the murderA major suspect in the Stephen Lawrence murder is publicly named today for the first time, after a BBC investigation.
Baroness Doreen Lawrence, Stephen's mother, said there should be "serious sanctions" against the police officers who failed to investigate White, following the BBC's revelations.

Our investigation revealed evidence of White's central role in the case. He was initially known publicly as Witness K, granted this alias despite never really co-operating with police. In 2011, he was named publicly for the first time at the trial of Norris and Dobson, but only as a witness. The Met was asked in 1997 by another police force to consider whether White could have been present during the murder and then formally told to establish his role in the case, but this recommendation was not properly followed
