The sentence has been handed down to a young man who murdered a mother in Poole while driving dangerously and then lied to police.
On Sunday, December 12, 2021, Lewis Clark, 20, of Hudson Close in Poole, entered a guilty plea.
After 23-year-old pedestrian Courtney White was killed in a collision on the A3049 Canford Way in Poole, his excessively risky driving resulted in death.
Miss White, a mother of a three-year-old daughter, was walking home while listening to music on the sidewalk between the Mannings Heath and the Alderney roundabouts when Clark struck her after failing to pass a friend’s motorbike at a high rate of speed.

After participating in an armed robbery alongside his father in 2014, Lewis Clark was given a 16-year jail term. Lewis was one of three boys from South East London’s Battersea neighborhood.
He was open about his criminal history in an interview with documentary director James English.
Between 2005 and 2010, he was a member of the South London gang G-Street, engaged in drug dealing, and committed several robberies.
According to a hearing on Friday, January 13 at Bournemouth Crown Court, Poole Driver Lewis Clark Arrested For The Death Of Courtney White Clark, who was 19 at the time, did not have a driver’s license and had not driven for at least a year prior to the collision.
Clark’s acts were driven by his “desire to show off,” according to Judge Robert Pawson
The prosecution, Stuart Ellacott, said in court that Clark, who had no prior convictions, met up with several companions the night of the collision and “swapped” his motorbike for a friend’s Ford Fiesta.
After that, the party left a petrol station on the A3049, and Clark started driving quickly to keep up with two pals who were riding motorbikes next to him.
According to the court, the driver then lost control and drove across the street toward the sidewalk before hitting the curb and hitting Miss White from behind. He ran into a lamppost as well before returning to the road.
The court found that Clark and the other three passengers left the vehicle and sped away without looking after Miss White.
Judge Pawson observed, “They ought to hang their heads in shame.”
Despite their best attempts, first responders could not save Miss; she was declared dead at the site. The court heard that she had fatal head and neck injuries.
Clark and his companion revealed to the police how the automobile was taken at knifepoint soon before the collision when they located the owner of the vehicle.
Despite continuing to lie for some time, Clark eventually turned himself in to the police and acknowledged driving.
