Summary

This week, we take a fresh look at what is possibly the most infamous hate crime in UK criminal history. We’re going to be talking about the savage and entirely unprovoked murder of an innocent 18-year-old man who was killed as he waited for a bus, by a gang of cowardly racists, for no other reason than the colour of his skin.  This horrific attack not only robbed a family of a young son, but it cast a broad and ugly light on racial divisions within our society, and also raised difficult questions surrounding the integrity of our police and the UK criminal justice system.
