Harry Dunn father calls for Prince Andrew and Anne Sacoolas swap
Following a formal request by the US Department of Justice (DoJ) to speak to Prince Andrew as part of its Jeffrey Epstein inquiry, there is now growing pressure for the US to agree to send Anne Sacoolas to the UK as part of a deal.
Former CIA operative Sacoolas killed Northamptonshire teenager Harry Dunn outside RAF Croughton in August 2019.
Sacoolas subsequently fled the UK by claiming diplomatic immunity, even though the general consensus is she didn’t qualify for one as only her husband (who is a serving US spy) had formal immunity.
It is widely believed the Foreign and Commonwealth Office (FCO) was complicit in Sacoolas’s escape and subsequent evasion of justice.
Reacting to the DoJ’s request, Harry’s father, Tim Dunn, said a deal involving the Duke of York and Sacoolas is a “no brainer”.
According NorthantsLive, Dunn senior said his family need his son’s suspected killer to be returned to the UK “so that we can get justice and closure for the loss of our son”.
Holding the FCO at least partly responsible for Sacoolas’ escape, Dunn senior claimed that during a meeting with foreign secretary, Dominic Raab, the latter said: “If we threaten the US, look at the size of them compared to the size of us”.
The UK’s diplomatic and political timidity vis-à-vis the US has been a constant theme during the Harry Dunn saga.
Meanwhile the Dunn family spokesman, the avuncular Radd Seiger did not mince his words when he said in a statement: “[Prince] Andrew needs to head over to New York as soon as Anne Sacoolas is back in the UK and going through her trial”.
