The case is being heard at the Old Bailey
Harry Dunn’s mother Charlotte Charles has told reporters outside the Old Bailey she “of course” wants Anne Sacoolas to return to the UK for her sentencing hearing.Nick Vamos, former head of extradition at the Crown Prosecution Service , said the ability to have Anne Sacoolas appear virtually in court derives from coronavirus legislation, which allows even the most important court sessions, such as plea and sentence hearings, to be done virtually.
“So the idea that it depends on her consent, as opposed to the court’s power, is very unusual and it’s led to these unprecedented circumstances. Mr Vamos, who is now head of business crime at law firm Peters & Peters, said: “What’s unprecedented is that the proceedings are conducted entirely remotely from start to finish.“But to go from the start to the finish without the defendant ever setting foot in this country, let alone in the courtroom, is unprecedented.
His mother Charlotte Charles and father Tim Dunn refuse to meet Sacoolas, who was in the room next door as they met Mr Trump.Northamptonshire Police confirm they have interviewed Sacoolas and are passing a file of evidence to the Crown Prosecution Service .The CPS reaches the decision to charge Sacoolas with causing death by dangerous driving.US secretary of state Mike Pompeo formally rejects the extradition request for Sacoolas.
