Envoy’s wife wanted over teen road death ‘won’t return to UK’

A SUSPECT granted diplomatic immunity in the case of a teenager killed in a road crash will not be returned to the UK, according to notes held by US President Donald Trump.

Harry Dunn (19) was killed when his motorbike crashed into a car outside an RAF base on August 27.

After Mr Trump addressed reporters on the case at the White House, a photograph of a note he had emerged.

The note read: “(If raised) note, as Secretary Pompeo told Foreign Secretary Raab, that the spouse of the US government employee will not return to the United Kingdom.”

After the development, Mr Dunn’s mother Charlotte Charles sharply criticised the US President, suggesting his approach to the case has been “beyond any realm of human thinking”.

The suspect, 42-year-old Anne Sacoolas, reportedly married to a US diplomat, was granted diplomatic immunity following the crash.

Grieving: Charlotte Charles

The car which crashed into Mr Dunn was thought to have been driving on the wrong side of the road after leaving RAF Croughton in Northamptonshire, a military base used by the US Air Force.

The teenager’s family met with the Foreign Secretary on Wednesday but said they left the meeting feeling “angry” and “disappointed”, with Ms Charles later saying it seemed like a “publicity stunt” and that they felt “patronised” by Dominic Raab.

In a press conference on Wednesday, Mr Trump said wrong-way driving “happens” after being asked by Prime Minister Boris Johnson to reconsider granting immunity to Mrs Sacoolas.

His words were met with anger by Ms Charles.

Speaking to Sky News about the photograph of a note held by Mr Trump which seemed to suggest Mrs Sacoolas would not be returning to the UK, Ms Charles said: “I’m just disgusted.

“I don’t see the point in Boris Johnson talking to US President Trump, or US President Trump even taking a call from Boris Johnson.

“If he’d already made his decision that if it were to be asked and if it were to be raised, the answer was already going to be no, it’s just beyond any realm of any human thinking.”

Mr Trump confirmed that his administration would seek to speak to the driver after Number 10 said the Prime Minister had urged him to “reconsider” in a phone call.

Northamptonshire Police have also asked the US to consider waiving the immunity.
