"I don't know the answer to that, but I would say it's probably likely a combination of those things. Sometimes he has a good memory and good detail for certain things, other times less so. I do think that he wants to project certainly in the public domain himself in a positive light."

David Norris, 49, apologised for his role in Stephen Lawrence's racist murder while seeking parole. A prison psychologist assessed Norris and identified inconsistencies in his evidence, including admissions followed by retractions and confusion over dates. The expert noted possible causes such as hearing pressure or deliberate caution, and judged Norris to be an unreliable narrator of his own life.

The expert recommended Norris remain in closed conditions and concluded he has not met the test for release.
