The woman who killed Harry Dunn has managed to dodge jail for the 19-year-old's death. Anne Sacoolas, 45, from the US admitted last month that she had accidentally killed the teen while driving a Volvo near a US military base in August 2019.
Today, at the Old Bailey and live on television, she was sentenced by Mrs Justice Cheema-Grubb to 8 months, suspended for a year. Sacoolas, who appeared via videolink, was spared jail time in the UK because she is still currently in the US, the Mirror reports.

Harry was rushed to the John Radcliffe Hospital in Oxford but sadly died from his injuries at 10.50pm. Sacoolas was able to leave the UK 19 days after the crash, as the US government had granted her diplomatic immunity.

"There could be little reason where a young man had met his death for you not to be required to attend for sentence. A week before that date, the court received a renewal of an application for you to appear

Murder early American style is pointedly served cold in The Pale Blue Eye, a fancifully gruesome account of killings at the U.S. Military Academy at West Point, circa 1832, that attracts the attention of a certain Edgar Allan Poe, among others. Handsomely made in the dead of winter and generally adept at playing its dramatic cards, the film’s intrigue stems from the unusual academic setting, the ritualistic freakishness of the killings, the intelligence of the characters and the admittedly narrow portrait of a United States still just getting on its feet.
