Duwayne Brooks was with his friend Stephen Lawrence on the night in 1993 when he was stabbed and killed. He too was attacked but managed to escape and call the police. He was traumatised by the experience. The Macpherson Inquiry into the murder concluded (chapter five of the Report) that ‘no officer dealt properly with Mr. Brooks’.
