Harry Dunn death: diplomat's wife will not return to UK, Trump notes say

Source: The Guardian

A US diplomat’s wife suspected of involvement in a fatal road collision will not be returned to the UK for trial, according to briefing notes provided to Donald Trump.

Briefing notes for a press conference on Wednesday, caught on camera by a Washington Post photographer, told the president: “(If raised) Note, as Secretary Pompeo [the US secretary of state, Mike Pompeo] told Raab [the UK foreign secretary, Dominic Raab], that the spouse of the US government employee will not return to the United Kingdom.”

Harry Dunn, 19, died on 27 August when his motorcycle collided with a car allegedly being driven by Anne Sacoolas, who then left the UK.

Unless she called him thanking him profusely and does so in public, this is just noise to him.

He would send her back quicker than he would grab a pussy if he got the whim (or putin suggested it).

This decision was made elsewhere within state.

I just dont get why she wouldnt just stick it out. Even if sje was drunk, she wouldnt see any real time.

But doing it this way cancelled her husbands career. If he had a securoty clearance, its gone and he cant do his job. She is a vulnerability and a risk, so his position of trust is over.
