The grieving parents of a British teenager who was killed in a car crash involving a U.S. diplomat’s wife said President Trump “doesn’t understand” how much the accident has “broken” their family.
to the White House on Tuesday, the president surprised them by saying the woman involved in the crash, Anne Sacoolas, was willing to meet with them in front of the White House press corps. The Dunn family has insisted that they would only meet with Sacoolas in the U.K. with therapists and mediators present as they push for her to return to Britain and face the legal system.
A spokesman for the family during the interview said that during the White House visit, national security advisor Robert C. O’Brien “snarled” at him and said Sacoolas would “never” return to Britain. “I used to look up to that institution. But it’s a bunch of henchmen trying to make him look good,” the spokesman, Radd Seiger, said.Harry Dunn, 19, was killed in August when his motorcycle collided with a car allegedly driven by Sacoolas in southern England.
