I agree with Jane too !

Having said that I think Prince Andrew should explain himself and not keep hiding behind his mother’s skirts.

I think they are both separate issues really but I really feel for Harry Dunn's family. Anna Sacoolas and all those involved have acted appallingly and it's unforgivable. Harry's Mum especially, has shown such courage and integrity whilst having to mourn her son. I don't know how Anna sleeps at night angry

I agree with Jane.
I heard a snippet of something interesting earlier in the week. The Harry Dunn case was being discussed and it was alleged that new evidence has shown that Anna Sacoolas was on the phone at the time of the collision. Apparently phone records have been studied and some crucial evidence has been deleted. I’m not sure if it’s now been found. Sorry to be vague but the tv news was on, but I was engaged in something else and I only caught the end bit of the report. If it’s true, it’s certainly casts a different light on things as using a phone whilst driving is an offence.

I agree. I don't know how Anna sleeps at night either. Perhaps that is her punishment. I did read somewherw that she is actually a diplomat of some sort herself. I think we were first told she was the wife of a diplomat.

Our agreement with the USA regarding extradition is lop-sided anyway.
We should be reviewing that in my opinion.

Looks like one rule for us and a different rule for the US Sueangry

I thought that too. The US are insisting that PA answers for his alleged crime but are harbouring the killer of Harry Dunn a more serious offence imo.

I don’t think that Prince Andrew will have to go to the US in this case though, it’s a civil case not in the criminal court anyway.
The case of Harry Dunn is a very sad one, but she will never be asked to return here against her will now.

Can we do an exchange?

I agree.

I am in no way defending Prince Andrew and if he has done wrong he needs to answer for it, but why can’t we bring Anne Sacoolas to justice in this country when she has killed an innocent young man. What’s good for the U.S. is good for us.
