The mother of Harry Dunn, the teenager who was killed in a road collision involving a U.S. diplomat's wife in the UK, broke into tears and asked the diplomat’s wife to 'do the right thing and just come back and face what she’s done'

- The parents of a British teenager killed in a car crash involving a U.S. diplomat’s wife vowed on Monday to keep fighting until they get justice for their son after the American woman returned to the United States following the accident.

“She needs to just do the right thing and just come back and face what she’s done,” said Charles, her voice breaking with emotion. “We promised Harry as a family when we lost him that night ... that we would make sure justice was done.” A spokesman for Dunn’s parents said the family would travel to Washington this week to put pressure on U.S. authorities and that they were looking for legal assistance in the United States.

Another entitled, SuperRich realDonaldTrump donor rewarded w/a cushy position. The husband, Ambassador Woody Johnson, is co-owner if the JETS!

Unbelievably sad, she should be forced to return...

She is a gutless wonder

Vindictive. Just forgive and forget. It was an accident!

Conduct a rendition

she might as well go back the prisons won't be anything like they are here

Note: not everyone with diplomatic immunity is a diplomat.

Diplomatic immunity should not pertain to reckless and careless behave when lives are lost. Especially not extended to family members. Roles reversed there would be outrage in the US right now.

全世界都在看,美国如何处理。

Well, few weeks ago I was reading a story about an english chav, who was beating up using hammer two Polish ladies in the streets in London, both women ended up perm disabled, yet an english chav isn't in prison, that's just one fact about england and there are many.

Not “diplomat’s wife” - as per the secret dtrump document she is “spouse of US government employee”.

The woman has diplomatic immunity. Home free

the US will do the right thing.

Stay strong!!

Extradition!!!!

The superiority and narcissism. Publish her identity and with her photo. All Over the world. Esp in the USA. So she has judgment. And her husbands. Diplomatic 🧚🏼‍♂️😘

Alumni network. Immoral. Poor mother. We will come together and get u justice x 😘

They will get zero help from Trump. He could not care less.

another american coward. so sad.

The US Ambassador should be ashamed of himself. Give him 24 hours to bring her back, then declare him persona non grata.

The UK should not give up Julian Assange unless the USA gives up the Diplomat's wifey.

idiot

Absolutely disgusting, don’t worry though, our ’special’ relationship will soon get the matter sorted.....

F***ing diplomatic immunity

Harrowing tale, really it, but diplomats have immunity...

i don't understand why US won't just extradite her criminal a** back.

Diplomatic immunity is meant to protect from POLITICAL blowback, not protect you from being held to account when you're guilty of manslaughter.

Trump response...... 'There were good people on both sides of the road'

Extradite her!

Yeah... my condolences, but nah. I wouldn't go back. Maybe pay for the funeral, but what good does going back do? He is dead.

Britain is impotent against American might. Such a shame.

If it was on purpose she should be brought to justice for her actions. If it was an accident maybe there be no jail time or very limited. If she just ran away back here to the US without speaking to the police then that’s hit and run but if the police excused her. It’s just sad

Was that a hit-and-run accident? Did the driver not stop after the collision? Any American should know that would be a crime.

Interesting to see how US media is reacting. They are trying to play down the incident saying it was just an accident and she had diplomatic immunity. If the shoe was on the other foot, I am sure US media would have been jumping up and down and demand the accused face justice

Like the rest of the tRump administration , they lack the balls.

Trump meddling in the case and defending the woman in 3...2...1...

Anne Sacoolas, you are a disgrace to America, to diplomacy, to any moral code that you may hitherto have espoused. Your behaviour right now will track you to the end of your days.

Guessing the media will blame Trump for the wreck.
