A scathing report has found that British police failed to arrest a U.S. diplomat involved in the fatal crash that killed 19-year-old Harry Dunn in 2019. The diplomat, Anne Sacoolas, claimed immunity and left the UK shortly after the incident. Now, the police force has apologized for their handling of the case, admitting they should have detained her immediately.

Editor’s Note: This isn’t just about a tragic accident—it’s about accountability. The report highlights serious missteps in how authorities responded, raising questions about whether diplomatic immunity was used to sidestep justice. For Dunn’s family and the public, it’s a painful reminder of how power imbalances can shape legal outcomes. The apology doesn’t undo the harm, but it does add pressure for systemic changes to prevent similar failures.
