Car Thief Gets 20 Years For Killing PC

A teenage car thief has been jailed for 20 years for killing a police officer during a high speed pursuit. Clayton Williams, 19, killed PC Dave Phillips just three weeks after coming out of jail on licence for crashing another stolen car in a police pursuit. There was no reaction to the verdict from Williams in the dock, but a statement from his lawyers blamed the Government for failing to address the issue of young people "abandoned by the state".
