Stephen Lawrence TV reporter talks of his pride

The TV reporter who exposed alleged police corruption in the Stephen Lawrence murder case has spoken to the Bexley Times about his year-long investigation. Mark Daly said his BBC inquiry was hard, but added: "I am proud to have been able to make this programme and do the work the police should have done all those years ago." His investigation, which uncovered evidence suggesting that a detective took money to shield five suspects, has prompted a new investigation by the Independent Police Complaints Commission. In her review of the programme, The Guardian's Nancy Banks-Smith remarked that Daly "looks diffident and has the tenacity of a bear trap". (Via Bexley Times)
