U.K. authorities were correct to allow an American diplomat’s wife to leave the country after a 2019 car accident that killed a young man outside an air force base, a British court ruled Tuesday.
Anne Sacoolas had diplomatic immunity through her husband’s job when she killed 19-year-old Harry Dunn while she was driving on the wrong side of the road outside RAF Croughton in Northamptonshire, judges Julian Flaux and Pushpinder Saini said.
