Coroner criticises US government in Harry Dunn case

A coroner has criticised the US government for a lack of training provided to employee Anne Sacoolas prior to the crash outside an American airbase which killed motorcyclist Harry Dunn.

Northamptonshire coroner, Anne Pember, concluded that Mr Dunn, who was 19, died as a result of “injuries sustained during a head-on collision” with a car on the wrong side of the road outside RAF Croughton in August 2019.

Speaking outside the Sessions House in Northampton where the inquest was held, Mr Dunn’s family accused the government of “obstructing” their son’s inquest.

Both representatives of the US embassy and Sacoolas were absent from the four-day hearing, prompting the Dunn family spokesman, Radd Seiger, to say the US government’s position was that the “lives of UK citizens like Harry ultimately do not matter”.
