Stephen Lawrence murder: Neville Lawrence 'full of relief'

Two men have been convicted of the racist murder of black teenager Stephen Lawrence 18 years after the attack in south London.

Outside the High Court in London, solicitor Jocelyn Cockburn read a statement on behalf of Stephen Lawrence's father Neville.

Mr Lawrence said his life had been torn apart by his son's senseless murder.

But he said that he was "full of joy and relief" that two men had been convicted of his son's murder.
