Parents of crash victim Harry Dunn invited to meeting at White House

The White House has asked for an “urgent meeting” with the family of Harry Dunn.

A family spokeswoman said the 19-year-old’s parents, Charlotte Charles and Tim Dunn, were heading to Washington las night.

The teenager was killed when his motorbike was involved in a head-on collision outside RAF Croughton in Northamptonshire in August.

Anne Sacoolas, the motorist allegedly responsible for the crash, was given diplomatic immunity and allowed to return to the US after the crash.

The family travelled to America earlier this week and said they would be trying to convince President Donald Trump to reverse the decision.

In a post on the Justice 4 Harry GoFundMe page, the teenager’s family said: “We will be meeting with various news channels to spread our campaign with all of America and ultimately hope that the American government see that it is right to send Anne Sacoolas back to the UK to face our justice system.”

The family, who met Foreign Secretary Dominic Rabb in the UK last week, have also demanded an investigation over the Foreign Office’s (FCO) advice to Northamptonshire Police that Ms Sacoolas had diplomatic immunity. They are demanding to see all emails, messages and notes sent in relation to her immunity status.

Speaking in New York, family spokesman Radd Seiger said: “We want to conduct an investigation into the FCO’s decision to advise Northamptonshire Police that this lady had the benefit of diplomatic immunity.

“What we don’t know is whether somebody messed up or whether they were put under pressure by the Americans to concede.”
