  2. Diplomatic immunity is not what Hollywood portrays it is. Itโ€™s not a get out of jail free card. Itโ€™s not automatic, and it certainly doesnโ€™t cover major crimes like murder even if it was an accident. I wish sheโ€™d gotten more time since she CLEARLY understood the consequences, otherwise why would she have fled?! If sheโ€™d stayed and taken responsibility for her actions, it was unintentional, etc. Iโ€™d be a bit more understanding. I feel so sorry for the victims family, if only she had taken responsibility and sincerely apologized after being sentenced they would have at least gotten some closure but because she fled, any apologies and regrets are worthless. And to add insult to injury she got a slap on the wrist when their boy is dead. Shameful all around. How people live with that let alone sleep at night is beyond me.

  3. wow! 7:15 Lets be gentle with her because she has children, why not add some tea and biscuits to sweeten the sentence even more – the fact she fled the country and used diplomatic immunity added anguish to Harry's family, but hey! lets be gentle because she has kids – THIS IS MF BULLSHIT 8months suspended for 12months is a joke – she and her family will be hi 5ing this! This is what corruption smells like!

  4. a few years ago my partner cheated on me. i called the person that she cheated with, calmly, asking if they have no shame and what happened. he was from a very elite and wealthy background. this phonecall cost me several thousand euros and years of headache with the courts, lawyers, police, who violently raided my house, and even my employer. it is now 5 years later and i am about to finish paying off my sentence.

    why am i telling you this? my loss is nothing compared to the suffering that this boy and his family has been put through. i tell you, because justice systems can be a tool to hand down severe punishments, IF wanted. in the case of this boy, there was no real interest to catch the suspect or serve justice in any way. she got away because privileged people made it so.

    rest in peace, young brother. i am sure you were a good dude.

  5. Surely the fact she was driving on the wrong side of the road means she was not fit to drive! The country you're driving in has nothing to do with it, she was simply not fit to drive on British roads, she wasn't proficient enough! What good is insurance if you wouldn't have even passed a British driving test. This has nothing to do with her nationality, she wasn't competent enough to be driving over here, and therefore was a potential danger to others the second she started driving the car. I also think that a custodial sentence would be a lesson in life to her children. ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ฆ

  6. Disgusting sentence. She should have got at least eight years for manslaughter and evading justice.

    Her husband and all of the officials who helped her flee should be charged with perverting the course of justice.

    She was a Dept of State / CIA analyst specialising in European and Russian gangs, now wonder the Americans wanted her out of there asap and so ignored their treaty obligations.

    RIP Harry ๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿ’š

  7. She was driving on the wrong side of the road, killed a young Man, fled the country, claimed diplomatic immunity to avoid justice, BUT, you're a good Women and Mother and we don't value male lives in this country, so please feel free to just carry on. Why didn't the judge just give her a medal and be done with it.

  8. Like a gta character Anne Sacoolas drove at the wrong side of the road. Hit and running a teenager, his skull mushed all over the pavement. Being a wife of someone only saving her. May her children cut off her life support at the age of 50. With the everyday hounding of her fans she should not live long.

  9. If it were the other way round, and she'd been hit and killed, Harry Dunn would've got years for it. Yet, she only gets 8 months? Is that all Harry's life was worth? For shame.

  10. HEAVEN OR HELL, YOU CHOOSE!
    Whoever repents of all his sins (turns from sins) and calls on the Name of the LORD, will be saved. He who died on a cross for the sins of the world, rose from the dead on the third day, and by His blood, whoever repents and believes, has full redemption of sins and eternal life.
    Today is the day of your salvation, repent and confess Jesus Christ now as your Lord and be saved, because you broke the law but He paid your fine with His life's blood.

    For those with understanding: Matthew 24:40-41 will take place very soon, this is the sixth seal! This is the generation of the harpazo, rapture, and behold you will witness the trumpet blast that will make the sky recede as a scroll being rolled up! Therefore, be ready and be the five wise virgins, do not be the five foolish virgins! (Parable of the Ten Virgins)

  11. Yes sheโ€™s so โ€˜full of regretsโ€™ she refused to come back to the UK to answer for her actions which caused the death of someoneโ€™s child. She claimed diplomatic immunity and stayed in the US knowing that any sentence she would eventually be given would not be carried out over there. I feel so sorry for Harry Dunnโ€™s family, may they now focus on the beautiful loving times they spent with Harry while he was here.
