Somehow this does not sound like you Boss.

This does smell like the pfffarters - any excuse to castigate President Trump.
Finding all the right words and ways to phrase it such that folks will get
all upset and refuse to vote for Trump.

As has already been said . . . Think about what happens if the 'other guy'
gets into the White House.

In the meantime, try collecting facts in this matter. And read between the
lines a little.

U.S. won't extradite diplomat's wife who killed British teen in wrong-way crash
The State Department said extraditing Anne Sacoolas, who was covered by diplomatic immunity, would set a troubling precedent.

The U.S. government has declined a request to extradite a U.S. diplomat's wife who killed a 19-year-old motorcyclist while driving on the wrong side of the road in England, a State Department official said.

Anne Sacoolas, 42, returned to the United States three weeks after the crash that killed the motorcyclist, Harry Dunn, in August near RAF Croughton in Northamptonshire, which is home to a U.S. Air Force communications station.

The U.S. State Department has said Sacoolas, the wife of a U.S. diplomat , cannot be extradited because she is covered by diplomatic immunity.

"If the United States were to grant the U.K.'s extradition request, it would render the invocation of diplomatic immunity a practical nullity and would set an extraordinarily troubling precedent," a spokesperson for the State Department said Thursday.

"The United States government again expresses its sincere condolences and sympathy to the Dunn family for the loss of their son," the spokesperson said.

Sacoolas has been charged in the United Kingdom with causing death by dangerous driving. She has said she cooperated with authorities at the scene and at her home, and she later expressed her "deepest sympathies and apologies for this tragic accident" to Dunn's parents.

Dunn's family welcomed the criminal charge when it was announced in December.

"We feel that we've taken a huge step in the start of achieving the promise to Harry that we made," said his mother, Charlotte Charles.

Charles said then that the family assumed it would be easy to get justice considering the circumstances but that "we had no idea it was going to be this hard and it would take this long."

Dunn's family, which has been campaigning for Sacoolas to face justice, traveled to Washington to make their case. They met President Donald Trump in October and were given what they called a "bombshell" offer to meet Sacoolas in the White House, which they declined.

Amy Jeffress, an attorney for Sacoolas, has previously said Sacoolas would not return voluntarily to face a potential jail sentence in the "terrible but unintentional accident."

"A potential penalty of 14 years imprisonment is simply not a proportionate response," Jeffress said in a statement at the time. "We have been in contact with the U.K. authorities about ways in which Anne could assist with preventing accidents like this from happening in the future, as well as her desire to honor Harry's memory."

In January, when the United Kingdom formally demanded that Sacoolas be extradited, Jeffress said that "Anne is devastated by this tragic accident and would do anything she could to bring Harry back" but that the U.S. government had made it clear that any extradition request would be denied.

De

I watched in horror this morning as the poor mother of this wrongfully killed son informed and spoke with Fox about this whole thing.

Can YOU get away with crossing over a centerline and hitting somone head on and killing them?

I know I can't. Seems like all the political figures are closing ranks to be sure that if you are a political person who happens to be sent to the US, you can get away with anything.

Is there some reason this person cannot go back to England and like everyone else whow as involved in an accident take care of her accident she was at fault for?

OR, is it okay now to cover for any politician and the everyday citizen gets to have their family member killed by them with ZERO consequences???

THAT is what is happening here and Trump was made aware of the lack of British extradition and said he did not want to send her back.

THAT is utter bullchit and the old "politicians can act without impugnity because they are better than the people whoactually work and pay thede bastards via having forced taxes removed from our hard earned incomes.

The lady in England should be allowed to see the murderess face the consequences of her actions.

WHAT would hapen to you if you crossed the center line and nailed someone head on and killed them???

You think you can skip the country, flip off the parents of the dead child and HIDE in another country and then have that President protect and shelter you from having to go back and own up to your actions????

Puhleaeeeese !!! YOU would be in a trial for vehicular homicide or something....

As would all the rest of us...

Trump is no better in this case than all the other corrupt CLUB politicos. They protect their own...

This wouldbe a civil case in England and has nothing to do with world poliical decisions by the pissydent.

There is NO excuse and that woman should be in a car and let someone else nail her head on and they walk away scott free like she has thus far.... THAT is JUST PLAIN WRONG and NO U.S. President should be shielding ANYONE from the consequences of their actions like that.

I guess the dead young man is going to come backfrom the gracve so his mother doesn;t greive herself to death???

That's BS and it's obvious..

Let's see if enough heat comes down on him to do the right thing instead of proclaiming that politicians are above the rule of law....

Please explain difference between Trump and any other a hole democrat who thinks and does the same exact thing...
It's beyond reprehensible....
